Cop27: greenwashing and lies or a chance for change?
World leaders, negotiators and industry representatives have arrived in Sharm el-Sheik in Egypt for Cop27, the UN\u2019s climate change conference. A UN report set the stage for talks, stating that there is \u2018no credible pathway to 1.5C in place\u2019 and that progress on limiting global temperature rises has been \u2018woefully inadequate\u2019. So will governments take the opportunity to press ahead with their promises or could the conference live up to accusations of greenwashing? Madeleine Finlay hears from Guardian Australia\u2019s climate and environment editor, Adam Morton, about what\u2019s happened since Cop26, our current path to catastrophic heating and what\u2019s likely to be on the agenda over the next two weeks
