As COVID-19 reshapes our economy, our newsletter will help you unpack the news from the day.
What happens after the Paris climate talks?
At the Paris climate conference, the second and final week has begun. If we have a deal by Friday, countries will:
- Formalize their individual pledges to cut greenhouse gas emissions
- Promise to show their work and be transparent along the way
- Pay for poor countries to afford new energy sources
- Schedule future meetings to “ratchet up” ambition down the road and speed up a global energy transition
Pledging an overhaul in the world’s energy economy is one thing, but following through is a different story.
Marketplace Sustainability Correspondent Scott Tong explains.
If you’re a member of your local public radio station, we thank you — because your support helps those stations keep programs like Marketplace on the air. But for Marketplace to continue to grow, we need additional investment from those who care most about what we do: superfans like you.
Your donation — as little as $5 — helps us create more content that matters to you and your community, and to reach more people where they are – whether that’s radio, podcasts or online.
When you contribute directly to Marketplace, you become a partner in that mission: someone who understands that when we all get smarter, everybody wins.
