The New Climate Institute argues a host of big firms are not meeting climate commitments.

The New Climate Institute argues a host of big firms are not meeting climate commitments. Thomas Day was lead author of the institute's report, and discusses its findings. Also in the programme, prices for goods and services are rising sharply all over the world. The 大象传媒's Tamasin Ford explores some of the factors behind the rises, and hears why it is often the poorest in society who are impacted the most. Following the death of Indian singer Lata Mangeshkar, schools and offices in her home city of Mumbai were shut today, along with banks and financial markets. The 大象传媒's Archana Shukla reports from Mumbai. Plus, when it first streamed in China, the film Fight Club had its ending censored, but following an outcry the original has now been restored. We get reaction from entertainment journalist Caroline Frost.

Today's edition is presented by Sasha Twining, and produced by Nisha Patel, George Thomas and Gabriele Shaw.
