ACADEMIC and climate change campaigner has appeared on David Attenborough's new BBC documentary on the subject.
Mike Berners-Lee was interviewed on this week's 'Climate Change: The Facts,' which was watched by millions of TV viewers.
Mr Berner-Lee, whose views are set out in an acclaimed new book, 'There Is No Planet B,' lives in Kendal with wife Liz and their two children.
A researcher from Lancaster University’s Environment Centre, he was one of 10 experts who spoke on the issue in the hard-hitting one-off documentary.
“With this documentary the BBC takes a big stride forward in its climate change coverage," said Mr Berners-Lee.
"It portrays the seriousness of the situation accurately, calls out the deniers for decades of deliberate nonsense powered by vested interests, and makes clear the responsibility on us all to push for proper response to the emergency we all face.”
