Business Weekly

As world leaders jet out of Glasgow, Business Weekly asks if COP26 is simply a lot of hot air? Or will the political promises actually be kept?

As global leaders jet out of Glasgow, leaving the hard bargaining to their delegates, Business Weekly looks at what the pledges made so far really mean. Will rich countries be able to support the financial demands made of developing nations to help them transition away from fossil fuels? And what did activists make of Indian Prime Minister, Narendra Modi鈥檚 promise of reaching net-zero by 2070? Also on the programme, we hear why some people enjoy trophy hunting - and whether it can ever be a useful tool for conservation. And as an inquest names a haul of Anglo-Saxon coins one of the biggest ever found in England, we ask what happens to treasure after it鈥檚 discovered. Business Weekly is presented by Lucy Burton and produced by Matthew Davies.
