Climate Change
- Question
-
To ask His Majesty's Government, further to remarks by the Secretary of State for the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero on 18 July that "the biggest threat to nature and food security ... is the climate crisis" (HC Deb col 189), what plans they have to appoint a Climate Envoy.
- Answer
-
We cannot address the urgency of the climate and nature crisis without co-ordinated global action. Failure to act would cause environmental devastation, fuelling displacement, conflict and famine. We are committed to reinvigorating the UK's international leadership on climate and nature, working with our international partners. We will set out further details of our approach in due course.
