Liveline
"It is currently unsustainable"

There are lots of people all over the world who are affected by climate change who can't do any farming.

Liveline
"It is currently unsustainable"

They can't eat.

Liveline
"It is currently unsustainable"

They can't drink because the water is contaminated because there's no new rainfall in or else there's too much rainfall in.

Liveline
"It is currently unsustainable"

And this is a big problem.

Liveline
"It is currently unsustainable"

And, you know, when you were talking earlier about, you know, adaptive, those people, we can adapt.

Liveline
"It is currently unsustainable"

We can go inside and hide from the sun or we can stay inside and hide from the wind.

Liveline
"It is currently unsustainable"

But these people have nowhere to go.

Liveline
"It is currently unsustainable"

And what's going to happen is, and it will happen, it's already happening, is that they're going to migrate westwards, they're going to migrate northwards.

Liveline
"It is currently unsustainable"

And we're going to end up with, you know, migrants coming here, which is not necessarily a bad thing.

Liveline
"It is currently unsustainable"

But, you know, when all of a sudden you have 100,000 extra migrants coming in your door, there'll be lots of people saying, oh, why are they coming here?

Liveline
"It is currently unsustainable"

Well, it's climate change.

Liveline
"It is currently unsustainable"

Oh, and we can have the sunshine and we should enjoy it.

Liveline
"It is currently unsustainable"

But we should also be cognisant of what's happening all around us.

Liveline
"It is currently unsustainable"

You know, we don't live in a bubble isolated by nothing.

Liveline
"It is currently unsustainable"

Well, yeah, I agree with climate change or climate breakdown, as you call it.

Liveline
"It is currently unsustainable"

I'm no expert in this.

Liveline
"It is currently unsustainable"

I'm just an everyday average person.

Liveline
"It is currently unsustainable"

But what I find silly about the whole thing is, yes, we mightn't be meeting our targets.

Liveline
"It is currently unsustainable"

Most countries in Europe aren't.

Liveline
"It is currently unsustainable"

Some are, but most aren't.
