No more excuses on climate change - Philip Stephens writing in the Financial Express -
Some in the industrialised world will be tempted to inaction by the fact that the effects of climate change will fall sooner and hardest on the poorer countries of the south. Yet if we have learnt anything about global security during the past few years, it should have been that rich nations cannot avoid the consequences of chaos and poverty elsewhere. Britain's Tony Blair put it well when he said that climate change has become the definition of global interdependence. Sadly, that has yet to make it easier to reach equitable bargains between rich and poor.
