Drought in Burkina Faso happens ever more frequently. In 2005 millions faced food shortages as a result.
Take urgent action on the Climate Change Bill.
The Climate Change Bill – introduced as a framework for the UK to cut its emissions – is in its final stages in Parliament.
As it stands the bill is not yet strong enough to ensure the UK cuts its emissions enough to play its part to keep global temperature rise below the two degrees critical point. Tearfund is campaigning as part of the Stop Climate Chaos coalition for the bill to be strengthened.
Poor communities are already suffering from changes to their climate including droughts, floods and sea level rises. Please take action to call for strong climate law to help prevent catastrophic climate change.
