A demonstration saw protestors in business wear queue across the London's Millennium Bridge.

Hundreds of business people gathered on London's Millennium Bridge to call for urgent governmental climate action.

The Government said it has invested heavily in the renewables sector and that the transition away from fossil fuels "cannot happen overnight".People who joined the queue signed an open letter to Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and all political parties asking them to commit to three key actions to speed up the transition to a more environmentally friendly world.

"We believe if the Government acts now, our businesses will be secure and our families will be safe. We cannot do business on a dead planet."
