Johnson, Attenborough unite vs climate change

LONDON: Veteran British naturalist David Attenborough and Prime Minister Boris Johnson will make direct pleas Tuesday to the United Nations Security Council to take “urgent action” on climate change or face worsening global instability.

Johnson, who is chairing a virtual session of the council on climate and security, will urge members to help vulnerable countries adapt to climate change and “take steps to cut global emissions to net zero by 2050,” according to his Downing Street office.
