Bonn Climate Change Conference: More Blah Blah, Than Rah Rah

The Bonn Climate Change Conference was described as two weeks of intense discussions, to make progress on important technical issues, and prepare decisions for adoption at the UN Climate Change Conference (COP27) in Sharm el-Sheikh in November. What issues were discussed, and were there any fruitful outcomes, especially from the lens of developing nations and the Global South? Why were many developing nations left frustrated at the talks? We catch up with Meenakshi Raman, the President of Sahabat Alam Malaysia (SAM) and Head of Programmes at the Third World Network (TWN), to discuss outcomes from the recently concluded talks.
