As COP31 puts implementation in the spotlight, The Agenda asks whether global climate cooperation can deliver with America stepping back and China potentially taking a bigger leadership role. 

Can the summit move countries beyond setting targets to delivering concrete results? We'll also explore what the world can learn from China’s clean energy expansion, whether climate finance is reaching developing nations, and how to make the green transition affordable for ordinary households. 

The discussion also examines how to hold governments and businesses accountable, and whether the COP process is delivering quickly enough.

On this edition of The Agenda, Juliet Mann is joined by Dimitri de Boer, Director for China at ClientEarth; Manuel Pulgar-Vidal, WWF’s Global Leader of Climate and Energy and former COP20 President; and Jennifer Morgan, Senior Fellow at the Climate Policy Lab at Tufts University’s Fletcher School and Germany’s former climate envoy.
