Boris Johnson pledges funding for scientists tackling climate change

Mr Johnson added:"The global population of animals is plummeting faster than at any time in human history. There are now more peers in the House of Lords than there are Sumatran tigers left in the world.

"It is a privilege to share our planet with such majestic beasts as the African elephant, the black rhino and the beautiful pangolin. "We cannot just sit back and watch as priceless endangered species are wiped off the face of the earth by our own carelessness and criminality."Conservation is a passion of the prime minister's girlfriend Carrie Symonds. On Sunday, she tweeted:"Happy #WorldRhinoDay. With fewer than 30,000 rhinos left in the world we need to do all we can to save this incredible species from extinction. Rhino horns only ever belong on a rhino.

International development secretary Alok Sharma will also announce £175m of aid for climate initiatives in the developing world. Of that new fund, £85m will be spent protecting one billion people from natural disasters like typhoons and hurricanes with earlier warnings and handling the aftermath.
