Optimism and Inspiration Ahead of Brazil’s Crucial Climate Summit

A special program from Rio de Janeiro as Brazil prepares to host the COP30 climate summit. Christiane talks to Britain’s Prince William about the Earthshot prize, which rewards five innovators for finding climate solutions, and she asks him about changes in the British monarchy. The former UN climate chief Christiana Figueres speaks about finding optimism amid the dire climate forecast and tells Christiane why she thinks Bill Gates’s latest memo on global warming is misguided. Then, a little inspiration from above as NASA’s first female space shuttle pilot Eileen Collins discusses the new documentary about her extraordinary life “Spacewoman”. From Christiane’s archive, a return to Brazil’s last time hosting a major climate gathering in 1992. When the Earth Summit saw then-Senator Al Gore tell Christiane that the world needed American climate leadership. And finally, some words of wisdom from David Attenborough as he releases his latest nature documentary.
