COP29 is over. A new agreement has been struck. So what the hell happened?
Climate reporter Dharna Noor is here to explain. She was on the ground during the conference to cover it all and she's on the show this week to deep dive into the results and what it means for global climate action. Dharna discusses the complexities and stakes surrounding COP29, how the central theme of climate finance shaped the conference, and the key takeaways of the final agreement. We also discuss the tension between the Global North and South during negotations, the wild events that unfolded during negotiations, and the importance of good reporting and press coverage during these multilateral discussions.
Dharna Noor is a fossil fuels and climate reporter at Guardian US. Prior to that, Dharna was the Boston Globe's climate producer, worked as a staff writer at Earther, where she also co-produced a season of the podcast Drilled on the fossil fuel industry's influence on education.
