MI6 looks at green spying. The British Secret Services are actually going to verify that countries, especially the “world’s biggest polluters”, honor their commitments in terms of the environment. An announcement was made on Times Radio by Richard Moore, the first MI6 chief to say so in a broadcast interview. “In the area of ​​climate change where everyone should get involved and play fair, we should verify that this is the case,” he said.

Because the owners of British secret services are hierarchical, environment is a priority on the foreign policy agenda for the United Kingdom and the planet. Among the sites of British spies, we find China in particular, which according to Richard Moore is the largest emitter of greenhouse gases. “When people make commitments on climate change, it’s probably up to us to make sure that what they’re actually doing is what they signed up for,” a person known as Agent “C.” .

Boris Johnson’s Big Climate Ambitions

Regarding future methods used by the Secret Services, the head of MI6 is also quite thoughtful. Are agents going to farms to measure factory emissions? Richard Moore touched down.

But this interview does not happen by chance. From 1 to 12 November, the United Kingdom will host COP 26 on Climate in Glasgow. And ahead of this summit, Prime Minister Boris Johnson, eager to “raise the level”, announced on Tuesday that he had set himself a very ambitious CO2 reduction target.
