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 where we were really at the forefront, pushing ahead as quickly as we could on something that i believe to be fundamental to the uk economy, fundamentally beneficial to the people living in this country, whether

the uk is not the only country which is seeing an increase in ketamine use. the european monitoring centre for drugs and drug addiction analyses waste water from a number of cities across the continent. i would say that the levels of ketamine use in the uk are similar to those observed in the netherlands, spain, france, where we are seeing an increase in the data coming from the most recent surveys. we now also have data on ketamine use coming from waste water samples. for the cities that have comparable data between �*22 and �*23, we saw, in the majority of the cities, an increase in ketamine use. we always get the questions, if we are sure it's non—medical use of ketamine or if it's ketamine as a medicine. waste water allows us to have data on a daily basis, so we can see that the use is higher during weekends, on fridays, saturdays and sundays, which probably points to the use of ketamine in recreational settings. try them both, mate... it's now later in the night and we're back with chronic ket users beth and jay. what is the physical impact for you
