In advance of the publication of the latest report by the IPCC on how to mitigate climate change, and to signal the regalvanised civil society campaign for climate action at home and for a fair and binding global climate change deal, Stop Climate Chaos has morphed into The Climate Coalition

It has also launched a new campaign - "for the love of" - to celebrate the things we love and to call on politicians to tackle climate change.   You can read more about it here and you can join in here.

Here's my contribution...

For the love of...

...wildlife (especially fabulous birds the kittiwake and golden plover)

...places (especially the Somerset Levels and my family's hut on the eroding cliff in Northumberland) and

...people (especially my family but also the Arsenal football team even when they fail to meet expectations - that's Arsenal, by the way, not the family)

Let's tackle climate change.

What things do you love that are threatened by climate change?

It would be great to hear your views.
