Ed Miliband says national security of all countries at risk from climate crisis

UK Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband will address the Cop31 summit, emphasizing that climate change poses significant national security threats, including food shortages and economic instability. He warns that the consequences of failing to reduce carbon emissions are now evident, with an overshoot of the 1.5C threshold likely. Miliband criticizes those opposing climate action, stating that fossil fuel shocks are becoming the norm and calls for increased investment in clean energy and resilience measures. Despite these warnings, the UK government faces criticism for policies that may hinder its net zero emissions target by 2050.
