Summary

Hello! For the next few weeks we’re treating you to some special episodes about COP 26, the crucial climate summit taking place in Glasgow this November. First, we're talking through the basics and asking how on earth we got to where we are today. Author Alice Bell gives a whistle-stop history of our understanding of the climate crisis and the political response to it. Then two COP veterans, climate lawyer Farhana Yamin and former negotiator Pete Betts, talk us through their reflections on previous summits.
