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.” [Via Gigwise]
