b'This week, we\\u2019re reporting from Dubai, where the 28th UN climate change conference (COP28) is now underway. Ever since the Paris Agreement was signed at COP21, the central issue has remained the same: How do the nations of the world keep global heating to 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels?\\xa0\\nThis year marks the first \\u201cglobal stocktake,\\u201d where the data on how well we\\u2019re collectively doing on meeting the Paris targets are front and center.
