12 Dec 2023. As the text of a draft deal at COP28 has stopped short of calling on nations to gradually phase out fossil fuels, resulting in strong reactions from countries and delegates here, we hear from Christina Voigt. Christina has worked as a legal adviser and climate negotiator for the Government of Norway for more than 10 years.  With COP28 drawing to a close, a draft text of the summit agreement has prompted widespread backlash from countries vulnerable to climate change. Tanzeed Alam, Managing Director, Earth Matters Consulting explains how fossil fuels and finance remain key hurdles in the negotiation text at the climate summit. We'll also hear from Steen Jakobsen, Chief Investment Officer, Saxo Bank on their annual Outrageous Predictions for 2024.
