CLIMATE ACTION SHOWProduced by Vivien LangfordFebruary 16th 2026B E L E M   T O   S A N T A   M A R T AAt last! The first International Conference focused on the Transition Away from fossil fuel dependence.https://transitionawayconference.com/It will be held at the end of April 2026, in the Colombian Coal Port of Santa Marta.The aim is to create actionable guidelines. It will not replace the UN process but will contribute to the Belem roadmap announced by the COP 30th president in Brazil. It  will be the first International conference where actual implementation will be worked on.Should our First Nations Leaders and our Climate Change Minister attend this meeting? So far Chris Bowen is not expected to attend.Let him know what you think:Contact Details for Chris Bowen:Email: chris.bowen.mp@aph.gov.auPhone: (02) 9604 0710 GuestsKumi Naidoo - President of the Fossil Fuel Non Proliferation TreatyAt the Santa Marta Conference the many ways we can achieve FF phase out will be explored. A TREATY is one.Oil rich states like East Timor and Colombia have signed but Australia has not.Australia has signed the Belem Declaration and  Kumi Naidoo wishes our  Climate Minister  the Honorable Chris Bowen good luck as the President of Negotiations for the next COP . Chris Bowen's role will be to advance the interests of the Pacific. Australia will have “exclusive authority in relation to the negotiations”, to shape  global decision making in support of the multilateral system and the  global trade and investment in clean energy industries. The results of this conference will feed into an October conference in the Pacific which will lead to COP31 at the end of the year.Kumi Naidoo also argues for climate action being action for peace. As Colombia's Environment Minister Irene Velez Torres said since the US attack on oil rich Venezuela "We are more sovereign if we are less dependent on exports that are carbon intensive"This is a volatile time to be getting real about fossil fuel phase out, but Kumi Naidoo uses  entertaining metaphors to dramatise our urgent need to "Turn off the tap" driving climate chaos. Here is Kumi Naidoo's ABC interview about his new book "What we owe the water."https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vdYwCSC_RUU Bastiaan Hassing - Programme Lead for the Netherlands at the Santa Marta Summit in ColombiaHe discusses HOW the countries who have already demonstrated a commitment to transition will work on realistic steps. Phasing out subsidies is one way.At COP30 in Belem The Climate Policy Minister of the Netherlands, Sophie Hermans, announced that they would co host with Colombia the First International conference on the phase out of fossil fuels. This is big news. It is outside the UN process but will feed into the next COP in Turkiye.The Netherlands  already leads a coalition of 13+countries committed to phasing out fossil fuel subsidies. Australia is not yet a member. We spend $14.5billion p/a which  greatly delays the transition to cleaner energy by lowering production costs and distorting the energy market. Gariduyla - Comment at the launch of a film about The Adani/Bravus coal mine and the Wangan and Jagalingou Cultural Custodians who are protecting the waters of the Greatb Artesian Basin beneath it.A new documentary titled "Nagana Yarrbayn – The Water Protectors" focuses on the Wangan and Jagalingou (W&J) Cultural Custodians and their ongoing fight to protect their ancestral waters from Adani's Carmichael mine. Here are details about the film and its upcoming tour:About the Film: The documentary, produced by Kim Paul Nguyen in collaboration with W&J Cultural Custodians, follows Senior Cultural Custodian Adrian Burragubba's efforts to protect his ancestral lands and the sacred Doongmabulla Springs.

Aliporejea madarakani Januari 20 2025, kwa mara ya pili Trump aliiondoa Marekani katika mkataba wa tabianchi wa Paris wa 2015. Mwaka wa 2025, Washington haikuwatuma maafisa wake wa juu katika mkutano wa tabianchi wa COP30, uliofanyika Belem, Brazil. Na sasa wiki chache zilizopita, utawala wa Trump ulitangaza kuiondoa Marekani katika mashirika 66 ya kimataifa, ikiwemo ile ya UNFCCC.

O longuíssimo comboio de tempestades está quase a passar. Deixou um rasto de destruição que será difícil de esquecer. Que o diga a ex-ministra da Administração Interna, Maria Lúcia Amaral, que se demitiu literalmente no olho do furacão. Algumas horas depois, um segmento da A1 desaparecia no rio Mondego. O primeiro-ministro assumiu a pasta temporariamente. Em Belém, Luís Montenegro vai passar a encontrar António José Seguro, eleito Presidente da República como o político português mais votado de sempre. A análise de Clara Ferreira Alves, Luís Pedro Nunes, Daniel Oliveira e Pedro Marques Lopes no Eixo do Mal em podcast. Emitido na SIC Notícias a 12 de fevereiro.

O Presidente eleito entrou a marcar terreno junto do governo, exigindo resultados, a começar nos apoios às vítimas do comboio de tempestades, mas a cobrar de forma igual a todos os partidos a quem os portugueses não perdoarão que não se aproveite a estabilidade política. Ventura saiu a defender que os portugueses o colocaram no caminho para governar este país e a garantir que isso vai acontecer em breve. A instabilidade que Ventura pretende criar vai, por certo, esbarrar na vontade do primeiro-ministro e do Presidente eleito de levar esta legislatura até ao fim. Para fazer a leitura dos resultados destas presidenciais, conversamos com o director-adjunto do Expresso David Dinis. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

L'émission 28 minutes du 09/02/2026 Elle se bat contre le cancer et contre les ravages liés aux pesticides En 2023, on comptait plus de 430 000 nouveaux cas de cancer dans l'Hexagone : un nombre qui a doublé en l'espace de 30 ans. Fleur Breteau a été touchée par deux cancers du sein en cinq ans. Devenue activiste depuis son premier diagnostic, elle fonde en janvier 2025 le collectif Cancer Colère et devient une figure de l'engagement contre la loi Duplomb. Elle publie "Cancer colère" aux éditions Seuil, ouvrage dans lequel elle revient sur sa lutte personnelle devenue politique. Donald Trump en difficulté aux États-Unis : du pain bénit pour l'opposition démocrate ? Comme chaque année, le Super Bowl accueille une super-star de la musique pour un show d'une vingtaine de minutes lors de la mi-temps. Pour cette édition, c'est Bad Bunny, l'artiste le plus écouté de 2025, qui a été choisi par la NFL. Bad Bunny, portoricain, s'oppose publiquement à la politique menée par Donald Trump, notamment en matière d'immigration. Il l'a fait savoir, il y a quelques jours, lors de son triomphe à la cérémonie des Grammy Awards. Les voix qui s'opposent au président américain se font de plus en plus entendre aux États-Unis, à l'image de celles des anciens présidents démocrates Bill Clinton et Barack Obama. La popularité de Donald Trump est, elle aussi, sur la pente descendante avec une côte à 40% dans les sondages. Alors que le socialiste Antonio José Seguro a été élu président du Portugal face à l'extrême droite d'André Ventura le 8 février, Xavier Mauduit en profite pour nous raconter l'histoire du Palais de Belem. Marie Bonnisseau s'envole dans les airs avec le retour du festival de cerf-volant de Basant au Pakistan, après avoir été interdit pendant 19 ans pour sa dangerosité. 28 minutes est le magazine d'actualité d'ARTE, présenté par Élisabeth Quin du lundi au jeudi à 20h05.

A campanha presidencial continua, rumo à segunda volta do dia 8 de fevereiro. António José Seguro surge destacado nas sondagens e tem reunido apoios da esquerda à direita. André Ventura segue a estratégia de “fazer-se de vítima.” Pedro Delgado Alves lembra que, mesmo se o líder do Chega levasse a candidatura a Belém seriamente, continuaria“ a ter as opiniões que tem e a querer mudar o registo da república democrática que temos desde 1976”, José Eduardo Martins afirma que há pessoas que ajudam “Ventura a fazer-se de vítima.” O Antes Pelo Contrário em podcast foi emitido na SIC Notícias a 29 de janeiro.

André Ventura e António José Seguro enfrentaram-se no único debate da segunda volta das eleições presidenciais. A taxa de rejeição do líder do Chega é o seu maior obstáculo. Já o candidato apoiado pelo PS tem recolhido apoios até da direita, mas procura afirmar-se por mérito próprio e não apenas poder ser a alternativa a Ventura. Será que algum dos candidatos conseguiu mexer com as perceções da corrida eleitoral?

Mesmo à porta das eleições presidenciais, o panorama dos favoritos mudou. Seguro subiu, Marques Mendes desceu e a campanha de Cotrim poderá ter implodido. Ventura, continua à frente, Gouveia e Melo ainda sonha em chegar à segunda volta. Para lá do caminho para Belém, uma passagem pelo que se passa no Irão.

Esta sexta-feira termina a campanha eleitoral e no domingo os portugueses escolhem, entre onze candidatos, quem vai ocupar as duas vagas para a segunda volta. Quem for com Ventura (muito provável na próxima etapa) tem fortes probabilidades de acabar eleito Presidente da República. Cruzamos as campanhas dos quatro candidatos que podem fazer companhia ao líder do Chega.

The talk about indigenous leadership and how this is front and centre in this Brazilian Conference in the heart of the Amazon Forest. Dr Antimony Deor in an interview with Jane Morton, explores how the Biotic Pump  theoretically cools the climate. Forests like the Amazon, if left intact, drive atmospheric moisture inland. This is achived by tree evaporating and condensing of large amounts of water vapour.   Jane argues that we could achieve 1 degree of climate cooling by protecting the worlds tropical forests. PROTECTING THE FOREST PROTECTORSMeanwhile, this message from Survival International shows us how hard it is going to be for Brazil and other countries to enforce the law and protect the guardians of the forest.

No dia em que a SIC Notícias celebra 25 anos, a notícia inevitável é Donald Trump. O presidente norte-americano ordenou a invasão à Venezuela, bem como o rapto de Nicolás Maduro, e não tem vergonha de assumir que está interessado em explorar o petróleo do país para proveito próprio. Como o próximo alvo do imperialismo dos EUA pode ser a Gronelândia, a Europa vai-se mentalizando. Acabaram os debates, a campanha para as presidenciais segue nas ruas. Há cinco candidatos com chances de chegar à mais do que esperada segunda volta. A análise de Clara Ferreira Alves, Luís Pedro Nunes, Daniel Oliveira e Pedro Marques Lopes no Eixo do Mal em podcast.

Com a entrada na campanha, e com todos os debates já realizados, as sondagens confirmam que há cinco candidatos para as duas vagas da segunda volta. Sobram várias perguntas que só terão resposta no dia 18 de Janeiro: a má performance de Gouveia e Melo nos debates terá sido suficiente para o tirar da segunda volta? A suspeição sobre a facilitação de negócios na Abreu terá prejudicado irremediavelmente as hipóteses de Marques Mendes? A arte de não se comprometer pode levar António José Seguro às urnas a 8 de fevereiro? O ar leve e solto de Cotrim de Figueiredo pode fazer dele a estrela da primeira volta? A capacidade de levar os fiéis do Chega a todas as peregrinações vai levar Ventura à segunda volta?

L' Amazonie a été présentée comme une priorité lors de  la COP 30 par le président brésilien  Lula Da Silva. Il accueillait cet automne la conférence internationale sud le climat  à Belem aux portes de la gigantesque foret équatoriale. Nous partons dans le Para, l'un des Etats brésiliens les plus touchés par la déforestation. Dans l'ouest du Para, la forêt est encore préservée… Pour tenter de la conserver, et de limiter les dégâts, le gouvernement brésilien autorise des entreprises privées à exploiter des parcelles de forêts publiques, à condition qu'elles en fassent un usage raisonné et durable. Comment extraire du bois sans détruire la forêt ? Et comment les populations locales voient elles ce développement ? «Amazonie : les défis autour des concessions forestières durables», un Grand reportage de Lucile Gimberg.

No meio das festas, quando o tempo permite e os eleitores mostram disponibilidade para ouvir, as presidenciais fazem o seu caminho. Agora, é Marques Mendes que quer Gouveia e Melo a explicar uns negócios da Marinha e o almirante a manifestar-se contra as insinuações. Nada de muito novo, se atendermos ao facto de que se trata de um inquérito em curso no Ministério Público, relativo a coisas de há uns anos lá atrás e que aparecem numa revista perto de umas eleições. Candidatos são 11, mas no boletim vão aparecer 14. E há um Conselho de Estado marcado para 9 de janeiro que já está a dar que falar.

Next year is going to be very tough for coal, oil and gas. These interviews and songs take us into the spirit of the people who have protected waters, forests land and sea country for millenia. BACKGROUNDThe First International Conference for the Just Transition Away from Fossil Fuels  is announced for April 28-29 in 2026. The Netherlands and Colombia will host it at  Santa Marta coal port  in Colombia.It will be a landmark event focussed just on international cooperation in phasing out coal, oil, and gas and moving beyond UN talks to create concrete plans and pathways for a fair transition.The conference aims to bring together governments, experts, and civil society to build on declarations like the Belem Declaration.  Momentum built up at COP 30 in Belem has led to the urgent need to work out the  legal, economic, and social steps for a fossil-free future.

This is a beautiful interview in which we hear that the exploiters are children who do not understand the water table and how destructive their mining activities are.Adani/Bravus continues to export coal but at a much lower volume that planned and with considerable reputational damage here and abroad.  The Waddanangu Ceremony continues because these are eternal waters and need our protection.https://www.sbs.com.au/nitv/article/fire-still-burning-for-custodians-in-fight-against-mine/mm2lxpgax Jayden Kitchener Waters sang at a Palestine Action Rally in Sydney.National Indigenous Times 27/11/2025  : "Jayden Kitchener-Waters has been suspended with pay after going public with his alleged experience of censorship at the Premier's public servants Awards.On Monday November 17, Mr Kitchener-Waters was due to play his song 'Nhayla', written for his niece and sung in both English and Ngiyampaa language, before Premier's Department staff told him messages painted on his guitar were "too political" and could be seen as "taking sides"."NO PRIDE IN GENOCIDE", "FREE GAZA" and "F*CK THE IDF" was the writing in concern.Mr Kitchener-Waters offered to cover the word 'f*ck' before the issue was raised with the phrase referring to genocide."  

This week on Sinica, I'm delighted to have Iza Ding as guest host. Iza is a professor of political science at Northwestern University and a good friend whose work on Chinese governance I greatly admire. She's joined by Deborah Seligsohn, who has been a favorite guest on this show many times. Deb is an associate professor of political science at Villanova University and was previously a science and environmental counselor at the U.S. Embassy in Beijing. This episode was recorded in three parts: the first two in Belém, Brazil during COP30 (the 30th UN Climate Change Conference), and the final segment after the conference concluded. Iza and Deb discuss China's role at the climate summit, the real story behind the famous 2007 U.S. Embassy air quality monitor in Beijing (spoiler: it wasn't China's "Silent Spring moment"), Brazil's management of the conference, why China leads on technology but not on negotiation, and what the outcomes of COP30 mean for the future of global climate cooperation.

The COP30 climate talks in Belem wrapped up over the weekend, and reactions to the outcome were sharply divided. Simon Stiell, Executive Secretary of the UNFCCC, said “climate cooperation is still alive…we're undeniably still in it and we are fighting back.” Others said the COP had been another failure, with a final statement that amounted to “a form of climate denial”.To make sense of what really happened at COP30, and where the talks leave the global effort on climate change, host Ed Crooks is joined by three regular Energy Gang contributors who have been following the negotiations closely. Amy Harder is the national energy correspondent at the news service Axios, Lisa Jacobson is the president of the Business Council for Sustainable Energy, and Simon Evans is deputy editor of the website Carbon Brief. Together they discuss the arguments over COP30's statement on fossil fuels, the rise of climate adaptation as a key priority, and hopes for increasing flows of capital to lower-income countries.A pledge to triple adaptation finance for developing countries by 2035 is attracting a lot of scrutiny. Lower-income countries are pushing for clear plans for delivery, not just vague aspirations. What could those plans look like? Another key issue is China's complicated role in the energy transition. It is leading the way in manufacturing and deploying low-carbon energy technologies. But it is still adding coal-fired generation capacity at a rapid pace. Does it make sense to see China as a climate leader?It is a complex picture. The world is still off track for the Paris Agreement's climate goals, even after the latest round of country pledges on emissions, known as Nationally Determined Contributions. But solar, wind and storage are still on declining cost trends, and are making significant progress in many countries.Finally, Ed speaks with Gianpiero Nacci, who's Managing Director for Climate Strategy and Delivery at the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, for a focused discussion on climate finance. Gianpiero explains why multilateral development banks such as the EBRD are being asked to do more, what makes adaptation harder to fund than mitigation, and what the new COP30 to COP31 roadmap means for climate finance, as focus shifts to next year's meeting, which will be held in Turkey a year from now.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In the West Bank, record levels of Israeli settler violence against Palestinians are unfolding with little mainstream coverage. The few journalists who try to report on it often face attacks themselves. When the violence is covered, the settlers are often framed as fringe actors, despite clear backing from the Israeli state. A de facto annexation is under way in the West Bank, and yet much of the international media continues to look away. Contributors: Ben Reiff – Senior editor, +972 Magazine Jasper Nathaniel – Journalist Leila Warah – Bethlehem-based journalist Mariam Barghouti – Ramallah-based journalist On our radar As the rhetoric coming out of the Trump administration calling for the removal of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro intensifies, much of the United States media is echoing that language. And with journalists branding Venezuela a “narco-state,” critics warn that the news media - much like in the lead-up to the Iraq War - is making the case for US military intervention. Defossilising the truth: Fighting fossil fuel disinformation As the COP30 climate summit in Belem wrapped up this week, we spoke with UN Special Rapporteur on climate change and human rights Elisa Morgera about a major barrier to real climate action: disinformation. Her latest report lays out how climate justice activists and policymakers are battling decades of coordinated greenwashing by some of the world's biggest fossil fuel companies - efforts that continue to delay and undermine meaningful progress at this critical moment. Featuring: Elisa Morgera – UN Special Rapporteur on climate change and human rights

Lange war die Stimmung in Belem gut. Seit dem Feuer läuft es zäh. Nun geht die COP30 in die Verlängerung. Klimaforscherin Angela Oels weist darauf hin, wie wichtig auch ein Beschluss über Klimaanpassungskriterien wäre. Kühn, Kathrin www.deutschlandfunk.de, Forschung aktuell

AP correspondent Charles de Ledesma reports several nations at COP 30 in Belem, Brazil are calling the proposals too weak.

For the last two weeks, a critically important climate conference has been taking place in Belem, Brazil. For the first time in 30 years, the United States did not send a delegation to the conference. Outside of the event, massive groups of Indigenous people have gathered to demand that world leaders do something to curtail the effects of climate change, which their communities are already feeling.

Negotiations in the COP 30 climate talks are continuing in Belem, Brazil. The headlines are focusing on the divisions between countries that are shaping this year's climate talks. But despite the doom and gloom, there are some practical steps being taken to support the transition towards lower-carbon energy. There may be a notable lack of significant new pledges. But making a pledge is the easy part. Implementation is always harder, and that is the focus for COP30.At COP28 in Dubai two years ago, a goal was set to double the pace of global energy efficiency gains, from 2% a year to over 4% a year. Can we hit that goal, and what will it mean if we do?To debate those questions, Ed Crooks and regular guest Amy Myers Jaffe are joined by Bob Hinkle, whose company Metrus Energy develops and finances efficiency and building energy upgrades across the US. Bob is there at the talks in Belem, and gives his perspective on the mood at the meeting. The presence of American businesses at the conference this year is definitely reduced compared to other recent COPs. But Bob still thinks it was well worth him going. He explains what he gets out of attending the COP, why energy efficiency has a vital role to play in cutting emissions, and why he is still optimistic about climate action.Another initiative that came out of COP28 was the Oil and Gas Decarbonization Charter (ODGC): a group of more than 50 of the world's largest oil and gas companies, which aim to reach near-zero methane emissions and end routine flaring by 2030. Bjorn Otto Sverdrup is head of the secretariat for the OGDC, and he joins us having just returned from Belem.Bjorn Otto tells Amy and Ed that there has been some real progress in the industry. The 12 leading international companies that are members of the Oil and Gas Climate Initiative have reported some positive numbers: their methane emissions are down 62%, routine flaring is down 72%, and there's been a 24% reduction in total greenhouse gas emissions.There is still huge potential for cutting in total greenhouse gas emissions by curbing methane leakage and routine flaring worldwide. How can we make more progress? Bjorn explains the scale of the opportunity, the real-world constraints, and the growing role of new technology including satellites and AI in detecting leaks. Keep following the Energy Gang for more news and insight as COP30 wraps. Next week we'll talk about what happed, what was promised, what didn't happen, and what to expect on climate action in 2026.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Thousands of people have been marching through the streets of Belem to demand stronger action on tackling global warming, as the UN climate summit continues in the Brazilian city. Indigenous communities, youth groups, and climate activists from across the world were among those joining the rally to mark COP 30's half-way point. We speak to Panama's special representative on climate change Juan Carlos Monterrey Gomez. Also in the programme: President Trump has hit out at Georgia congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene who had been one of his closest allies; why Iceland's former Prime Minister is worried her native language is under threat; and as Pope Leo holds an audience with some of Hollywood's biggest stars, we speak to a nun who is also a film critic.

Kate Adie introduces stories from Syria, the Philippines, Tanzania and Brazil.During his visit to Washington this week, Syria's interim president Ahmed Al Sharaa announced that Syria will join the coalition of 90 countries trying to eliminate the remnants of the Islamic State group. The threat of IS is increasing on Syrian soil, where 8,000 suspected IS fighters remain in jails, and 34,000 of their family members are held in camps. Orla Guerin reports on the new generation growing up in the camps.Last week the Philippines was hit by Typhoon Fung-wong - the twenty first big tropical storm to hit the country this year. Jonathan Head reflects on how the country copes with its vulnerability to natural disasters - and the growing anger over misappropriation of millions of dollars designated for improving flood defences.Tanzania recently experienced its worst post-election violence in decades. The newly elected president, Samia Suluhu Hassan, was inaugurated after the country's electoral commission declared she had won 98 per cent of the vote. In her speech she insisted the election was free and fair - though critics accuse the government of eliminating any credible political competition. Victor Kenani has been following the story on Tanzania's border with Kenya.Global leaders met this week in the Brazilian city of Belem for the latest COP climate summit, though it was off to a rocky start when it was not entirely clear what new - and renewed - pledges would be up for discussion. Watching on was our Climate Editor Justin Rowlatt.Producer: Serena Tarling Production coordinators: Katie Morrison and Sophie Hill Editor: Richard Fenton-Smith

Since the 1960s, scientists have been developing and honing models to understand how the earth's climate is changing. One such pioneer of early climate modelling is Syukuro Manabe, who won the Nobel prize in physics in 2021 for his work laying the foundation for our current understanding of how carbon dioxide affects global temperatures. A seminal paper he co-published in 1967 was voted the most influential climate science paper of all time.In this episode,  we speak to Nadir Jeevanjee, a researcher at the same lab in the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration where Manabe once worked, to look at the history of these early climate models, and how many of their major predictions have stood the test of time. And yet, as climate negotiators gather in the Brazilian city of Belem on the edge of the Amazon for the Cop30 climate summit, the data sources that climate scientists around the world rely on to monitor and model the climate are under threat from funding cuts by the Trump administration.This episode was produced by Mend Mariwany, Katie Flood and Gemma Ware.

Indigenous protesters against deforestation are making their voices heard in Belem, Brazil, the site of the UN's major climate summit. But the world's most powerful people aren't even at the conference: Presidents Trump and Xi are no-shows, and so is India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi, all big polluters. One well-known American trying to fill the leadership gap is former US Vice President Al Gore. One of the earliest politicians to sound the alarm on climate change, he won the Nobel Peace Prize in part for his prescient documentary "An Inconvenient Truth."   Also on today's show: Juanita Goebertus, Director, Americas Division, HRW  & Noah Bullock, Executive Director, CRISTOSAL; NYT reporter Charlie Savage  Learn more about your ad choices.

COP30, now getting under way in Belem, Brazil, has been billed as “the implementation COP”, which means a focus on governments taking real steps to achieve the goals of the Paris Agreement. We will be examining all the key issues for government negotiators in the talks very soon. But for this show, we are looking at the role of business. At New York Climate Week in September, the discussion was all about how businesses are facing up to the challenges of meeting growing demand for energy while also curbing emissions. With the rise of AI and broader electrification trends driving up power demand in some places at rates not seen for decades, sustainability goals are under pressure. Will companies abandon them? Or are they just finding new ways to decarbonise while keeping things going? Two companies in very different industries but both focused on similar goals, are Prologis and Trane. First up, host Ed Crooks speaks to Susan Uthayakumar, Chief Energy and Sustainability Officer at Prologis. She explains how the world's largest logistics real estate company is turning its vast rooftop space into a decentralized power network. It is building on-site solar, storage, and microgrids to keep global supply chains resilient, while generating new revenue streams.Then, Holly Paeper, President of Commercial HVAC for the Americas at Trane, describes how cooling systems are becoming a cornerstone of sustainable infrastructure. From AI-driven optimisation to data centres that can heat Olympic swimming pools, Holly talks about ways to reinvent thermal systems to reduce energy waste, enable grid flexibility, and turn buildings into active contributors to their communities.For all the breaking news and insight from COP30, follow Energy Gang wherever you get your podcasts.

Ten years ago in Paris, the world set its key climate goal, to limit a rise in global temperatures to 1.5 degrees Celsius. Now the United Nations is warning that the planet is likely to overshoot that target in the next decade, and that swift action is needed to limit the damage. The warning comes as world leaders are gathering for the COP30 Climate Conference in Belem, Brazil. Christiane spoke to former UN Climate Chief Christiana Figueres, a key architect of the Paris Climate Agreement, in Brazil ahead of the summit.   Also on today's show: author Katy Hessel ("How to Live an Artful Life"); Grammy-award winning musician and songwriter Jacob Collier  Learn more about your ad choices.

At dawn on October 28, residents of Rio de Janeiro woke to the sound of gunfire. Battles continued throughout the day in the favelas of Alemão and Penha, as police mounted a huge operation targeting the Commando Vermelho, or the Red Command, one of Brazil's largest organised criminal gangs.In the days that followed, as graphic images showed lines of bodies on the streets, it emerged that at least 115 civilians and four police officers had been killed, making it the most violent police operation in Brazilian history. In this episode, we speak to Robert Muggah, founder of the Institute Igarapé and a research collaborator at the Brazil LAB at Princeton University, about how organised crime become so deeply embedded in Brazil – and if there's a better way to confront it.This episode was produced by Mend Mariwany, Katie Flood and Gemma Ware.
