Can Africa avoid climate catastrophe?

Season 2, Episode 26

Duration: 26m

Environmentalist Achim Steiner, administrator of the UN Development Programme (UNDP), says that the latest IPCC report – which details the disastrous unfolding climate consequences for Africa and other regions – is an urgent wake-up call for global policymakers.
