With climate finance taking centre stage at #COP29, our paper #CarbonInequality lays out why curbing the excessive emissions of an elite few can create a sustainable planet for all. It's time for the biggest polluters to #PayUp. #MakePollutersPay

An important report tracing the unsettling death of a Rohingya child in India: telegraph.co.uk/global-healt… @TelGlobalHealth
Trafficked #Rohingya refugee Hamida was only 14 when she died this year under "mysterious" circumstances while detained in #India.
When I set out to investigate her death for @Telegraph, I had no idea about the widespread systemic problem I would uncover: tinyurl.com/y6cy33fu

2024 is ‘virtually certain’ to be hottest on record, finds @CopernicusECMWF

If you haven't already the @BeebRoger podcast with @lotaboluoki is well worth listening to, talking about why peoples' ability to find high-quality international news & investigative journalism is so important given the increasing role of online intermediaries & algorithms.
In the same week Tim Davie called for more govt. funding for the BBC World Service while axing Hard Talk, @GarethBenest of @_ibt discusses the decline in international coverage by UK broadcasters & the impact of algorithms on public service broadcasting.🎧 podfollow.com/beebwatch/view
