One of those taking action is Mel Carrington, 63, a mum and former environmental consultant from Dorset, who said:“We’ve just had the hottest three days on earth in recorded history and possibly for hundreds of thousands of years.
“Innocent people around the world already face extreme weather and deadly heat and no one is prepared for the societal collapse that unchecked global heating will bring.
“I’m terrified of what it will mean for my family and friends when there are widespread crop failures, food shortages and economic meltdowns. It will mean the breakdown of law and order, the end of the NHS and the loss of everything we depend on.”
“We need a global emergency plan to rapidly phase out fossil fuels.
“Our government must work with other countries and commit to signing a legally binding fossil fuel treaty to phase out oil, gas and coal by 2030 – and it must support poorer countries to get off fossil fuels too.”
Also taking action is Greg Sculthorpe a mathematician from Doncaster, who said:“I can’t bear to stand back and watch millions dying because the rich and powerful prefer to protect their wealth and status, than the lives of ordinary people.
