Small island nations threaten to leave COP29

About this episode

UN climate negotiations in Baku, Azerbaijan have reached a critical stage, but a resolution of the main sticking point - how much wealthier nations should pay poorer ones to help them respond to climate change - does not appear in sight. The BBC’s Mark McGrath gives us the latest after some nations exited talks earlier today to review their options. Also on the programme: reaction to US President-elect Donald Trump selecting his treasury secretary; and what a recent discovery in Belize can tell us about the fabled Maya civilisation.Photo: Activists hold a protest during the COP29 United Nations climate change conference, in Baku, Azerbaijan.
