we are really lucky that alok sharma, - are really lucky that alok sharma, many world leaders have backeduse increasingly we have seen citizens assembly is happening in many countries around the world, time and time again they are way more on dishes than the politicians and they are often just putting forward proposals that are granular and practical and commensurate with the challenge. the reason that there is so much momentum and support for this project is that very often we see that for dozens are actually way ahead of the politicians. brute that for dozens are actually way ahead of the politicians. we touched ve briefl ahead of the politicians. we touched very briefly on _ ahead of the politicians. we touched very briefly on the _ ahead of the politicians. we touched very briefly on the idea _ ahead of the politicians. we touched very briefly on the idea about - very briefly on the idea about individuals and individuals looking at cop26 might feel slightly overawed by this and the scale of it. we are talking about governments, global corporations, and asking "what can i do?" how much

so the president of cop26, alok sharma, says it has been missed.and it is showing a pathway to on average in this five year period beating that commitment. it might be quite optimistic that the target will be met next year and not 2023, i think it is a bit conservative and some of its assumptions about what we mobilise and i think we will see a big focus on lots of different ways of mobilising money from the public and the private sector so the 100,000,000 is a covenant of trust but it is for billion dollars per year that needs to be put into developing countries and those that will be coming from private sector so that 100,000,000,000 need to be met and negotiated but we need to talk about what really needs to happen in the real economy to finance the change. they are very technical these discussions. if i were to sue that was to split what is needed, it would be 1.5, getting a statement from everybody, it would be adaptation, putting more money into dealing and protecting our human systems from climate change and in terms of the changes that are

alok sharma, the british minister in charge of cop26, was speaking in milan where climate ministers fromrly important. there was a discussion around the fact we need to deliver on the 100 billion a year and i have said many times before, and i repeat again that delivering on the 100 billion is absolutely a matter of trust and of course at this cop, we need to start the discussion on what comes in terms of post 2025 but the delivery on 100 billion will be vital. from the meeting in milan, here�*s our science correspondent victoria gill. as representatives drift away from this closing pre—cop meeting in milan, i think there�*s a sense of cautious optimism that there is hope that we can really tackle climate change and get to an agreement at that crucial un climate conference in glasgow in just a month�*s time. but also there is a lot of work still to be done. in his closing press conference, the us climate envoyjohn kerry said he didn�*t want to single out specific countries, he didn�*t want to target them, but there was a heavy intimation that china and india, the pressure really needs to

alok sharma, the british minister in charge of cop26, was speaking in milan where climate ministers from the world are holding talks. from the meeting in milan, here's our science correspondent victoria gill. as representatives drift away from this closing pre—cop meeting in milan, i think there's a sense of cautious optimism, that there is hope that we can really tackle climate change and get to an agreement at that crucial un climate conference in glasgow in just a month's time. but also that there is a lot of work still to be done. so, in his closing press conference, the us climate envoy, john kerry, said he didn't want to single out specific countries, he didn't want to target them, but there was a heavy intimation that china and india, the pressure really needs to be put on them to step up and deliver on what they promise. so, basically, to put in writing what they will do to limit emissions, and reach that climate agreement in glasgow. there's two major issues that have really stood out in this gathering, and that's that 1.5 celsius threshold. this is the critical number that scie

and that is actually quite a clever slogan by alok sharma's team, because it means you could get to thee countries to reduce their carbon emissions, not be at limiting temperature rises to 1.5 degrees, but still have the potential to eventually get there. so, basically, you can't lose. because as long as it's not impossible, it's still alive. right, let's have another question. hi, jason. what pressures will be put - on countries not doing enough to combat climate change? thanks, jason. that's another great question. i think the main thing for me is we need to make sure people realise it's not too late. the scientists have issued this code red for humanity, and it is the uk government's role, as the leaders of this summit, to make sure they are bringing countries around the country to close that gap. that will be really important in terms of the success of this summit, the role of the uk government as leaders of cop26, to make sure people close the gap, they come forward with strong commitments and we see sector announcements as well, such as commitments to end coal and fossil fuels. an

the president of cop26 alok sharma, has said the success of this is make or breakfor cop26. said thegether the worlds largest economies and collectively they have produced 80% of gross domestic product, the total value of goods and services produced. 75% of global trade, 60% of the worlds population, and most importantly for the summit, they produce collectively about 80% of global greenhouse gas emissions. among them you have the big emitters, india, china, saudi arabia, australia, and they are all under pressure to be more ambitious in their carbon reduction targets. some of them have not brought in new targets, some of them have brought in new targets that are too soft, too low, to an ambitious and unless they can be corralled into going further and faster in their carbon and greenhouse gas emission targets, then that goal of the 1.5 cap on global warming will not be achievable. recently, the united nation climate report found on the current trajectory of the world are set to produce another 16% rise in global greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 compared to 2010 and that would lead t
