Description:

The Glasgow climate summit ended on the weekend with a deal that targeted fossil fuels for the first time.

But many member states and observers were left disappointed, after a last-minute intervention from India meant a planned call for member states to “phase-out” coal use was diluted to read “phase down” coal.

Today on Please Explain, national environment and climate editor Nick O’Malley joins Bianca Hall to discuss the Glasgow Climate Pact, and what happened behind the scenes at the UN summit.
