The latest phase in the Act on CO2 campaign has been unveiled and includes huge billboard adverts appearing in over 900 locations across England depicting typical British seasons that could soon look very different because of the impacts of climate change.
With just 13 days left until the start of the highly anticipated Copenhagen negotiations - which sees 192 countries gather together to decide the fate of the planet – the UK Government claim these adverts offer a stark message for any climate change sceptics.
Energy and Climate Change Minister, Joan Ruddock, said: “These posters will be appearing in streets across England, bringing the issue of climate change to our doorsteps. With just 13 days before the crucial Copenhagen talks begin it is essential that we are all informed and aware of the threats posed to us by serious climate change.
“Climate change is not just a problem affecting distant countries into the future; it is here, it is happening and it affects each and every one of us.
“Our new Act on C02 campaign shows how serious it is, but it also shows that we can all do something about it.”
These outdoor posters follow the broadcast adverts with which the Government wants to educate people on the dangers of climate change. In the broadcast advert currently running on national tv, the Government makes its first ever direct public information announcement confirming the existence of climate change as a consequence of human activities.
