Divided World, Shared Planet: Can COP30 Deliver?

Press/Media: Press / Media

Description

Global leaders, climate experts and NGOs are now in the city of Belem, Brazil ready for the negotiations to begin at COP30. They are gathering at the place known as the gateway to the Amazon amidst a rather depressing backdrop - with the latest figures showing global temperatures still rising and climate targets missed by almost everyone.

So what can we expect from this COP? And have we left it too late to save the planet?

Joining Juliet Mann on this episode of The Agenda are Ivo de Boer, Former Executive Secretary of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, Karl Falkenberg, Senior Adviser at Shearwater Global and Former EU Director-General for the Environment, and Benjamin Horton, Dean of the School of Energy and Environment at City University of Hong Kong.
