Was the COP climate summit a success?

This year's UN climate conference was all about finance. So did the so-called "Money COP" pay up? With an expert panel, Graihagh Jackson guides you through the key deals.

For two weeks, nearly 200 countries have been in Azerbaijan trying to come to an agreement on climate change and how to finance the transition to clean and green economies in developing nations. At COP 29, there were walk-outs, there was drama, and then there was a deal - of sorts. Graihagh Jackson is joined by an all-star panel to re-cap what happened and ask what all of this means for our planet.

Guests:
Justin Rowlatt, BBC Climate Editor
Adil Najam, Professor of International Relations and Environment at the Pardee School and President of WWF
David Victor, Professor of Innovation and Public Policy at the University of California, San Diego
Dr Musonda Mumba, Secretary General of the UN Convention on Wetlands
