Environmental journalist John Gibbons reckons we need to get serious about doing what's necessary to combat climate change. It's on a week that has seen record breaking temperatures across Europe. Paris saw temperatures of 42.6 degrees celsius, the Netherlands hit just over 40 degrees, and London hit 38.1 - just .4 degrees short of it’s all-time record.
