Brown To Take Action On Climate Change |

Speaking at the Major Economies Forum, Gordon Brown called on world leaders to attend the summit - stating that there was "no Plan B" and that "business as usual" would not be enough.
With Labour, the UK is already among the world leaders in developing low carbon energy, supporting energy efficiency and working to secure international agreement on tackling climate change. Labour's Climate Change Act made Britain the first country in the world to put ambitious long term emissions targets into law.

"If we do not reach a deal at this time, let us be in no doubt: once the damage from unchecked emissions growth is done, no retrospective global agreement, in some future period, can undo that choice. By then it will be irretrievably too late."
