Newshour

Available for over a year

Young campaigners from around the world are holding a three-day summit in Milan, Italy - the last consultations before the major UN climate change gathering, known as COP26, in Glasgow in November. Italy's climate minister Roberto Cingolani spoke to the BBC's James Coomarasamy about climate change, Greta Thunberg's "blah, blah, blah" criticism of political leaders' climate inaction, and what needs to be done now.
