Summary
The King has urged world leaders assembled in Dubai to make the COP28 climate summit a "critical turning point" in the fight to tackle global warming. And there has already been a breakthrough with wealthy nations contributing nearly $300m to a 'loss and damage' fund compensating poorer countries for the effects of climate change. <br /><br />It has taken 32 years to agree so while it is an achievement, the real issue remains cutting fossil fuels. In oil-rich Dubai that is a thorny issue. It and other petrostates are still arguing that the world needs fossil fuels while it transitions to greener energy sources. <br /><br />Climatecast host Tom Heap is in Dubai finding out what COP28 might achieve.<br /><br /><a href="https://podfollow.com/skynewsclimatecast" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank"><b>For more from CimateCast, click here to subscribe.</b></a><br /><br />Producers: Emma Rae Woodhouse & Luke Denne <br />Editor: Wendy Parker
