What next at the December climate change talks?

The December UN Climate Change conference in Paris offers a last chance to reach a deal that would keep global warming from reaching risky levels, says UN climate chief Christiana Figueres. But with greenhouse gasses projected to rise to more than 4 Celsius, can countries even make the necessary cuts?

Here to answer these questions is France’s Ambassador at large for climate change for Asia and Oceania, Philippe Zeller.
