Climate diplomacy and resilience in an age of extremes

In the era of president Donald Trump and the ESG backlash, climate diplomats have choppy waters to navigate. Countries are reeling from yet another year of extreme weather as investors look to build resilience into their portfolios. In this episode, deputy editor Jack Graham talks to Rachel Kyte, the UK special representative for climate, about her role under the UK's new prime minister Andy Burnham, how she interacts with investors and what the world must do to respond to climate extremes. Topics include how the government is engaging with Trump's United States on energy issues, China's potential hosting of the UN COP33 summit, and her work on changing the risk perception of emerging markets.
