00:00The longer we fail to act, the worse it gets, and the higher the price when we are eventually forced
00:09by catastrophe to act.
00:11Because humanity has long since run down the clock on climate change.
00:17It's one minute to midnight on that doomsday clock, and we need to act now.
00:22If we don't get serious about climate change today, it will be too late for our children to do so
00:31tomorrow.
00:33I was there with many of you in Copenhagen 11 years ago, when we acknowledged we had a problem.
00:41I was there in Paris 6 years ago, when we agreed to net zero,
00:46and to try to restrain the rise in the temperature of the planet to 1.5 degrees.
00:53And all those promises will be nothing but blah, blah, blah, to coin a phrase.
01:02And the anger and the impatience of the world will be uncontainable,
01:07unless we make this COP26 in Glasgow, the moment when we get real about climate change.
