Climate change report: Your questions answered

We look in detail at a new report on the impact of global warming, and how human activity is changing the climate. The study, by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), warns of increasingly extreme heatwaves, droughts and flooding, and a key temperature limit being broken in just over a decade. We explain what else is in the report, and how the world could change in our lifetimes.

Also, our environment correspondent, Matt McGrath, joins us to answer your questions on climate change. If you have a question you would like to ask, send us a WhatsApp message +447730 751925.
