About this episode
The COP26 climate summit in Glasgow was seen as the world’s ‘last best chance’ to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees and avoid catastrophic climate change.
On that measure it failed. The pledges made will instead see temperatures rise by nearly 2 degrees.
Tim Flannery, one of Australia’s most well known environmentalists, had a front row seat at the negotiations and to what he describes as Australia’s ‘embarrassing’ contribution.
Today, Tim Flannery on what unfolded at COP-26, and his hopes for the future.
Guest: Environmental scientist and contributor to The Saturday Paper, Tim Flannery.
