2℃ #2: Paris Agreement

2℃ is a show where we talk about how climate change is affecting us today, why our everyday choices matter, and what we can do to mitigate those consequences. On this episode, we explore the Paris Agreement and its aim to keep global warming below 2C above pre-industrial levels. We get to know about the different considerations that go behind climate change negotiations, as well as Malaysia’s progress and challenges in achieving its environmental goals. Hilary Chiew, climate change researcher at Third World Network, helps us make sense of what’s going on in the global effort to halt climate change.
