The world is heading into a “doom loop” where the “phoney war” over the climate crisis is ending and we are facing the “real consequences”, said an author of a think-tank report.
Researchers from the Institute for Public Policy Research (IPPR) and Chatham House said that the focus has shifted from the major problem facing the world which is climate change and instead are tackling short-term issues.
It warned that simply trying to cope with the impact of the climate crisis is moving the emphasis from cutting carbon emissions and making the situation worse.
