Weather forecaster and presenter Laura Tobin, 41, on climate change, the many small ways in which we can help save the planet and how meteorology can be depressing. The world is heating up at an alarming rate - last year was the joint warmest on record, and the last decade our warmest ever.

Susanna joined Laura for the launch last week where they chatted about the simple changes everyone can make to do their bit for the environment. In a big move away from Good Morning Britain, where viewers usually found her, the presenter has written a tome on climate change and put together a list of 100+ ways to change our habits that will impact the environment in a good way. Laura’s message is that no one can do everything, but everyone can do something – so let’s start a ripple and make a wave of change.Throughout the pages of her inspiring book, Laura also insisted that she will do everything in her power to make the world a better place for her daughter, and hopes that in time, the damage that has been done to the planet can one day be reversed by the actions of people who take being eco-friendly seriously.

Laura’s voice started to break when she said her young daughter, Charlotte, five, had drawn her a picture of a polar bear.With the UK set to be gripped by stormy weather over the next 24 hours, he revealed he would be speaking with the meteorologist on the show, hence a departure from her usual role on GMB. With over 200 “sustainable swaps” for families to implement, Everyday Ways to Save Our Planet by TV meteorologist Laura Tobin is a personal, practical and achievable guide to countering climate change. Laura explained that we have seen global average sea levels rise by 21-24cm since 1880, with about a third of that happening in the last two and a half decades alone.
