LONDON — Theresa May's government has been warned by opposition politicians that a no-deal Brexit would make it harder for the United Kingdom to monitor climate change, as it will stop receiving crucial scientific data from a key European Union programme.climate change was an"emergency" following a visit by Swedish activist Greta Thunberg and a House of Commons motion which urged the UK to do more to protect the environment.
Sir Vince Cable's party, which have surged in the polls in recent weeks following growing dissatisfaction with the two major parties in British politics, have raised concerns that a no-deal Brexit — advocated by dozens of Conservative MPs — would result in the UK losing out on data collected by the EU's Copernicus Earth Observation programme.
UK-based businesses and researchers would also no longer be able to bid to carry out work for the programme. "By threatening the UK's access to Copernicus with no replacement, the Tories have once again revealed their disdain for saving our planet."Prime Minister May avoided a no-deal Brexit in April by agreeing to delay the UK's exit until October 31.
