Climate change has long been a divisive topic that is often forced to the bottom of the news agenda, even as the threat of a warming world grows.

Ahead of COP28, the annual UN climate negotiations, Tom Heap is joined by a panel of guests to discuss the challenges of covering climate change.

Political scientist, Sir John Curtice, former Times journalist, Liz Gerard, and video journalist, Zoe Broughton debate how to best encapsulate the public, make climate stories relevant and make audiences care.

Producer: Emma Rae Woodhouse
Editor: Philly Beaumont

The panel all contributed to new book Toxic News? Covering Climate Change which features essays from academics and journalists on the challenges of reporting the subject.
