Using characteristically gloomy language, Radiohead frontman Thom Yorke has warned governments that the world will "never wake from the nightmare of climate change” unless new structures are put in place.

His call for action, which specifically targeted the European Union, comes as Friends of the Earth's Big Ask campaign launches a Europe wide campaign against climate change. In a statement, Yorke said that “by committing to annual cuts in our emissions at a national and European level we can play our part in tackling climate change, and set an example for the rest of world to follow."
