In a landmark new report, the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has unequivocally said that human activity caused severe climatic changes. The report warned the world is heading towards a 1.5 degree increase in temperatures in the next 20 years - at least 10 years earlier than expected. The rise in temperatures would likely result in more climate-induced disasters, such as floods and wildfires. The UN says the world has no time to lose. But are the countries around the world prepared to co-operate and fight the climate crisis?
