Many people still think climate breakdown is an issue for their children or grandchildren. The media have failed to communicate the truth: the crisis is upon us now. So it falls to activists like Clare Farrell to do it.

"We've got no time, we've wasted all the time"

"A massive campaign of mis- and disinformation that has lasted for about a generation"

"Facilitated by the mainstream media and by the governments of the world to try and confuse people"

"We're going to pass 1.5C probably this decade and 2C probably by 2040"

"We are going to see at least 2m of sea level rise, possibly 4m, possibly 10m!"

"London doesn't survive 4m of sea level rise, coastal cities don't survive that"

"It's coming in our lifetime, crop failure and famine and massive disruption to the world's food systems"
