david attenborough, as ever, has articulated it very well when he said, "what we do now and in the nextll materially shape the next few thousand years." i think that is right. i would also say that climate change is one of the principal causes now of biodiversity loss. it's probably the third main cause globally of biodiversity loss. and, of course, biodiversity loss reduces the planet's resilience to cope with the impacts of climate change, so biodiversity loss and climate change are, in my mind, at least, two sides of the same coin. i want to come back to the scale of the loss in a second, but i'm just very struck by something that tim harford, the respected economist, financial times writer, said recently. he said, "it is difficult to use this word �*crisis�* "in connection to climate change, �*cause to most people, "this is something that's happening in slow motion." of course, in planetary time, it's very real and immediate, but to most people, they wake up in the morning and their lives are not immediately affected every single day by the changing climate. how do you make sure, he
