SOME 600 experts began to work yesterday on the next major UN climate report, as the international consensus on global warming is challenged by US President Donald Trump, who deems the science a “hoax”.

French Ecological Transition Minister Monique Barbut, whose country is hosting the five-day meeting in a Paris suburb, told the scientists their “extremely precious” work is crucial as multilateralism has weakened.

“There is also something that should concern us all: The rise of climate-related disinformation on our social media, in our newspapers and even at the heart of our policy political institutions,’ Barbut said.
