Mr. Barnes touched on climate change. I have had a few meetings over the past few days where the talk was about the actual cost and what kind of figures we are talking about in order to genuinely tackle climate change. When we go outside and the weather is the way it is at the moment, it reminds us of the fact that the past ten years have been the hottest for thousands of years. I am wondering what calculations the council has done in respect of climate change and, specifically, on what the costs will be on an annual basis.
