About this episode
A recent report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change sounded the alarm once again that the time to act is now if the global community hopes to limit the effects of climate change. But is there sufficient political will across countries to implement the necessary policies? And how should top polluters—such as the United States and China—be held to account?
FP’s Ravi Agrawal is joined by U.S. climate envoy John Kerry to discuss this and much more.
