WHAT constitutes an “emergency”? The Oxford Dictionary defines “emergency” as “a serious, unexpected, and often dangerous situation requiring immediate action”.
The climate emergency, also referred to as the climate crisis, is nothing less than an emergency on a global scale. Everyone is affected. Every country is affected. In fact, every living thing on this planet has, is and will be affected by climate change, from viruses and microbes to elephants and giraffes and tapirs and tigers.
