Vijay Vaitheeswaran, the Economist’s global energy and climate innovation editor, will be joined weekly by expert guests to explore how everything—from finance to agriculture, transport to international policy—will have to change to take the world’s temperature down ‘To a Lesser Degree’.

Sharply intelligent, realistic climate reporting

This is excellent listening: all the great reporting I’ve come to expect from The Economist turned to focus on the climate emergency and COP26. The hosts are engaging as they present stories of the work done and left to do by NGOs and nations alike. It has been wonderful, and I urge The Economist to do more of it.
