Published: Nov. 15, 2022, 5 a.m.

b'Cop27 got off to a difficult start last week. Attendees struggled with a lack of food and drink, civil society group events were curtailed, and more than 600 fossil fuel lobbyists hit the conference halls \\u2013 more than the delegations of many of the most vulnerable countries combined. As we head into the second week, Madeleine Finlay hears from biodiversity reporter Patrick Greenfield about what it\\u2019s been like in Sharm el-Sheikh, and from environment editor Fiona Harvey about what\\u2019s happened so far and whether much progress is likely to be made in the final days of negotiations.
