Will Donald Trump 2.0 destroy the planet?

When the COP29 host country opens its own conference by extolling the virtues of fossil fuels, you know you’re off to a good start. Keir Starmer didn’t let that put him off. He announced ambitious new targets for Britain’s carbon reductions - almost as if the world’s most famous climate denier hadn’t just won the US election. Is it all pie in the sky? Or does Starmer reckon his targets can outlast Donald Trump? Later, Justin Welby has resigned as the Archbishop of Canterbury - the first time that’s ever happened - after acknowledging a conspiracy of cover up over child abuse within the church. Why are major institutions like the Church of England still getting this so wrong?Editor: Tom HughesExecutive Producer: Louis DegenhardtProducer: Natalie Indge Digital Editor: Michaela WaltersSocial Media Editor: Georgia FoxwellVideo Production: Rory Symon, Shane Fennelly & Arvind BadewalDigital Journalists: Michael Baggs & Jacob PaulYou can watch Lewis's special report on the abortion crisis in Florida here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=df5BCL0ocFEDon’t forget you can also subscribe to our other News Agents podcasts via the link below: https://linktr.ee/thenewsagents The News Agents USA now have merch! Click here to buy yours now: https://store.global.com/collections/the-news-agents-usaYou can listen to this episode on Alexa - just say "Alexa, ask Global Player to play The News Agents"The News Agents is brought to you by HSBC UK - https://www.hsbc.co.uk/
