Bill Gates, Mark Carney and others warn us climate change is a much bigger threat than Covid. Risks of feed-back loops, domino-type feedbacks and runaway climate change need to be avoided. Atmospheric carbon needs to return to 280 parts per million CO2 for safety. We are now at 417ppm and rising. We can all, especially representatives, help do something about this. I noted East Dorset Friends of the Earth’s criticism of BCP’s shockingly delayed, inadequate response to the climate and biodiverity crises. The portfolio holder for regeneration, economy and strategic planning, deputy leader of BCP Council, Philip Broadhead, did not answer my question.
