Britain urged to lead by example for successful UN climate summit - SABC News - Breaking news, special reports, world, business, sport coverage of all South African current events. Africa's news leader.

At a London launch event for the COP26 talks, British Prime Minister Boris Johnson urged “every country to announce credible targets to get there”, referring to the Paris Agreement goal of countries becoming carbon-neutral to limit global warming.

“It will also require that the UK’s upcoming free trade agreements are consistent with and support the delivery of this target,” he added, pointing to the new deals Britain has to cement after leaving the European Union at the end of January. Alison Doig, head of policy at development charity Christian Aid, said the earlier deadline for switching to electric vehicles was “a positive start and will send signals to the car industry”.

But Tuesday’s launch event, also attended by COP26 partner Italy, was overshadowed by a public row over Johnson’s sacking of Claire Perry O’Neill, a former Conservative government energy minister he had earlier appointed to oversee the talks.
