EPISODE SUMMARY

Join us as we hear from the Chair of the UK’s Climate Change Committee who’s represented the UK at COP29, Piers Forster and the Director of both the Leeds and Yorkshire and Humber Climate Commissions, Rosa Foster to explore what happened at COP29, whether it went as expected and what it really means at a more regional and local level.

EPISODE NOTES

November 2024 has been a busy month in the news for conversations about our changing climate – from flooding due to Storm Bert in the UK, the tragic floods in southern Spain and wildfires in South America. It’s against this backdrop, that we’re digging into what happened at the recent Climate COP in Baku, Azerbaijan; whether it went as experts expected and what it all means at all scales from international agreements to local action.

We hear from the Chair of the UK’s Climate Change Committee who’s represented the UK at COP29, Piers Forster and the episode is cohosted by the Director of both the Leeds and Yorkshire and Humber Climate Commissions, Rosa Foster.
