COP26: World leaders pledge to end deforestation
We hear reaction from people who are connected to forests in their lives and work
Our coverage of the COP26 international climate summit in Glasgow continues. We’ll focus on a couple of the issues on today’s agenda: deforestation and methane emissions. After the global deal to end deforestation, we’ll bring together people who are connected to forests in their lives and work.
We’ll explore what deforestation really means in practice, where it happens and the ways in which it contributes to climate change, with the help of a ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ journalist who has been looking at the subject in-depth.
And our regular medical expert, Dr Isaac Bogoch, Infectious Diseases physician and scientist at the University of Toronto, will talk us through the day's coronavirus stories.
