We are broadcasting live from COP29, the United Nations climate summit in Baku, Azerbaijan, where countries are shaping the world’s response to the climate crisis. Despite pledges at last year’s summit in Dubai to cut global emissions, the burning of coal, oil and gas has continued to rise as the world keeps breaking temperature records. This year’s summit is also taking place under the shadow of a second term in the White House for Donald Trump, who has called climate change a hoax and promised to take the United States out of the Paris Agreement and ramp up ... continua

As the official death toll in Gaza passes more than 42,400, the true number may be impossible to know until Israel’s war is over.

Health officials in Gaza said Thursday that the official death toll from Israel’s 10-month war has topped 40,000, though that is believed to be a vast undercount of the true figure.
