Climate change bill is revolutionary, says Blair

Tony Blair compared the fight against climate change to the battle against fascism and the cold war today, as the government pledged to cut carbon emissions by 60% by 2050 with the publication of the UK's first ever climate change bill.
In a sign of the importance attached to the legislation, it was unveiled in Downing Street by Mr Blair, the chancellor, Gordon Brown, and the environment secretary, David Miliband - who, in another first, explained the bill to internet users in a YouTube webcast.
