And what would you say to those nations that are already significantly affected such as small island states ?

If we "lead the way":

1. We'll be short of electricity;
2. We'll be unable to afford to heat our homes;
3. China & India will jump straight in to manufacture what we can't;
4. Unemployment in the UK will shoot sky high.

Anybody who says we must lead the way hasn't thought the consequences through properly.

I’m sure fears that may hold some similarities were held at the turn of the industrial revolution and in terms of employment there were significant increases in opportunities for both skilled and unskilled workers.

Change is inevitable .
