syria, and iran launched an unprecedented assault against israel. here in the uk — the outgoing head of the government's climate change watchdog, says rishi sunak has set back the cause of tackling global warming in the uk and is risking the uk falling behind other countries, in the battle against global warming. here's justin rowlatt. we had a stark reminder of the impact of climate change this week, a warning that the world's coral reefs were at risk of dying because of a global bleaching event caused by exceptionally high sea temperatures. it comes as the head of the government watchdog on climate change had some stern words for the prime minister. the reason — in the autumn, rishi sunak delayed a ban on petrol and diesel cars and watered down targets for phasing out gas boilers. we seem to have defaulted to an approach which will impose unacceptable costs on hard pressed british families, costs that no one was ever really told about. here is what mr stark had to say about that. i think it set us back. so i think we have moved from a position
