First Government public warning on climate change
By Mike Swain on Oct 9, 09 10:16 AM in Environment

The first government public warning on man-made climate change will be broadcast tonight on British television.

The public service advert is the first to warn officially climate change is happening and confirm it is man-made.



The ad features a dad reading a bedtime story to his daughter.

The dad tells his daughter of "a very strange world" with "horrible consequences" for today's children.



(Video of ad at the link.)
