World leaders, scientists and environmentalists will gather in the United Arab Emirates next week for the latest UN Climate Conference – COP 28. And far from hitting the much-discussed warming target of 1.5 degrees Celsius, the United Nations has warned the world could be facing what it called a "hellish" 3 degrees if urgent action isn't taken.
So can COP28 deliver where so many other gatherings appear to have failed?
In this episode of The Agenda, Juliet Mann takes the global temperature ahead of the COP meeting with Kevin Conrad, Founder of the Coalition for Rainforest Nations; Dimitri de Boer, Regional Director for Asia of ClientEarth; and Andrew Morlet, CEO of the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, which was named a Champion of the Earth by the UN Environment Programme earlier this year.
