What does the new COP28 climate deal really accomplish?

Amanpour

About this episode

At the end of two weeks of intense negotiations at COP28, a new major climate deal has been reached. Supporters say it marks the beginning of the end of fossil fuels, but not all parties are happy. It does not call for phasing out fossil fuels, island nations complained it’s a death knell for them, and climate activists say the deal lets the fossil fuel industry off the hook. Lord Nicholas Stern, chair of the Grantham Research Institute on Climate Change & The Environment, and author of The Economics of Climate Change, joins Christiane to discuss.  Also on today's show: Fawaz Gerges, Professor of Middle East Politics, London School of Economics and author of What Really Went Wrong: The West and the Failure of Democracy in the Middle East; Molly Duane, Senior Staff Attorney, Center for Reproductive Rights; Republican strategist Liz Mair  Learn more about your ad choices.
