	Description:		China is experiencing the worst heatwave in decades, which comes as the United Nations recently declared access to a clean and healthy environment to be a human right. It’s just one of many pressing issues for UN human rights chief Michelle Bachelet – and China is sure to be forefront of her mind. Bachelet is facing intense scrutiny over a long-delayed report into China’s treatment of the Uyghurs, stalling what many see as a vital chance to hold China to account. Bachelet’s tenure comes to an end this month and she’s vowed to release the report before leaving office – giving her just a matter of days. Sara Sidner sat down with Bachelet for an important interview. Also on today's show: Orlando Figes, author of The Story of Russia; Alex Pritz, director of The Territory, a new documentary about the Amazon rainforest.
