The UN's paramount scientific authority on climate change meets in Paris from January 29 to February 1 to hammer out the first volume of a long-awaited report on the state of global warming today.
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is widely expected to declare that climate change is already on the march, many years sooner than expected, and the consequences for humans and biodiversity could be dire.
"By turning off lights and also electrical gadgets that are in stand-by mode, citizens, the media and decision-makers will get the message about energy waste and the urgent need for action" the Alliance For The Planet said. |
