Climate change: Mountain sports

How climbers and skiers see a changing climate

We'll hear a conversation about climate change from people who spend much of their time in the mountains. We bring together a skier and two climbers to talk about their observations of a changing climate where they are.

We'll explain the latest news from the COP26 climate summit in Glasgow. The campaign group Global Witness says delegates associated with the fossil fuel industry should not be allowed to attend. We'll hear a response from the head of one delegation which includes representatives from oil and gas companies.

Also - at least eight people were killed and hundreds injured in a crush, as rapper Travis Scott performed at his Astroworld festival in Houston, Texas, on Friday night. We'll hear accounts from some of the people who were there. We'll also get our reporter in Texas to explain the legal action being launched in response to what happened.
