Unpacking the climate action in Glasgow

COP 26, the annual UN Climate Conference, began yesterday in Glasgow Scotland. We got a preview of how things might go after the G20 Summit in Rome - and well, not great news. World leaders set a target of reaching carbon neutrality around mid-century. But - they left Rome with few concrete targets or commitments on climate change. Plus, President Biden’s approval rating hits a new low. And, another terrible COVID milestone for the world. Guests: Axios' Ben Geman and Mike Allen.
