“Plants can adapt to extreme drought, to an extent anyway, but flooding really disrupts their physiology," adds Romanello. "It is really bad for food security and the agricultural sector."

Unless we can reduce emissions of greenhouse gases and stop the global temperature from rising further, we can expect more drought and more intense rain. 2023 was the hottest year on record.

“At the moment, we are still in a position to just about adapt to the changes in the climate. But it is going to get to a point where we will reach the limit of our capacity. Then we will see a lot of unavoidable impacts,” says Romanello.

"The higher we allow the global temperature to go, the worse things are going to be”.

Beckenbauer joined Pele and Moore in the States where, inevitably, he was a huge success playing alongside the iconic Brazilian for New York Cosmos. He won the North American Soccer League (NASL) in 1977, 1978 and 1980. Coaching was always going to come calling and Beckenbauer was predictably in huge demand, a perfect choice to lead his country, the road to winning the World Cup in Italy in 1990 including the dramatic semi-final win over England on penalties in Turin, beating someone else who became a great friend in Sir Bobby Robson. He was coach of Marseille for a short spell but it was Beckenbauer's destiny to coach his beloved Bayern, winning the Bundesliga in 1993-94 and the Uefa Cup in 1996 with a two-leg victory over Bordeaux. Beckenbauer's standing was assured, becoming Bayern's president and also vice-president of the German Football Association (DFB), leading their successful bid to stage the 2006 World Cup. If German football ever wanted an ambassador and frontman, Beckenbauer was the only choice. There was controversy, however, when Beckenbauer was one of four men investigated over suspected corruption linked to the tournament. In 2020, the trial ended without a verdict. It is as a player and coach where Beckenbauer's reputation was forged, one of football's most significant and important figures on and off the field.
