Singer/songwriter Badly Drawn Boy wishes more people would turn their televisions off completely to cut back on carbon emissions.
The environmentally-conscious Silent Sigh star - real name Damon Gough - believes climate change can be temporarily averted with small lifestyle changes.
He says, "I'm currently obsessed with turning my TV off properly instead of putting it on stand-by.
"Apparently if a billion people did that one action for a year, it would reduce carbon emissions by a billion tonnes. Or something. Still, you have to try.
"Everyone's got a different theory, but at the minute the UK's either going to be scorched to smithereens or buried under ice. It's gonna go one way or the other."
