COP26 has arrived and we’re discussing whether we’re turning the tide on climate change brought to you by Investec

Obviously, the big news for us this week as been the announcement of the $8.5bn Just Energy Transition Partnership to help South Africa transition away from fossil fuels, stimulate green hydrogen and electric vehicle production.
The two-day leaders' summit is now over and world leaders have jetted off to sunnier climes. But Cop26 is just getting started.
Attention will now turn to the negotiations between delegations on finalising the Paris rulebook. It's not going to be easy. Six years on from Paris, issues like Article 6 (carbon markets) are unresolved for a reason.

To get the latest from Cop 26 Michael Avery is joined by Belynda Petrie, CEO and co-founder of OneWorld Sustainable Investments. She is also a former research associate at SAIIA, who is in Glasgow; Dr Brian Mantlana, impact area manager: Holistic Climate Change at the CSIR & Jarredine Morris, Energy and Environment Manager at Business Unity SA, also in Glasgow
