Our tenth episode brings you all the latest news and views from the climate summit on 9 December – the day in the Presidency team’s thematic agenda dedicated to nature, land-use and oceans.

Luke serves up two interviews with experts on these topics, which we know are crucial in terms of both climate mitigation and adaptation.

He starts the day off at the Nature Pavillion in the Blue Zone, with a discussion with Business for Nature’s chief executive Eva Zabey. They catch up on the recent ‘It’s Now for Nature’ camapign launch, and Eva gives her views on whether COP processes properly embed nature.

He then sits down for a chat with the FAIRR Initiative’s senior technical specialist for climate and biodiversity, Sajeev Mohankumar. FAIRR is a huge investor network working to drive awareness and egnagement on ESG risks and opportunities, with a focus on food systems.

Finally, Luke dials Sarah in the UK for her top three stories of the day, including the COP28 Presidency’s efforts to align national and international work on climate and nature. She additionally reveals the winner of the previous episode’s ‘Stocktake Storytime’ and provides our final listener quiz.
