Nepal Demands Climate Compensation From Major Polluters Following Flash Flood Disaster

Nepal's foreign minister has stated that China, the United States, and India should compensate the nation for the flash flood disaster that occurred last week. He emphasized that Nepal's greenhouse gas emissions are extremely small compared to those of the top three polluters, yet the country suffers immensely from a crisis it did not create. This discussion is explored by presenter Cyril Vanier alongside guests Manjeet Dhakal, Lead Adviser to the Chair of the UN Least Developed Countries Group on Climate Change; Erin Sikorsky, Director of the Center for Climate and Security and former Deputy Director at the US National Intelligence Council; and George Monbiot, environmental campaigner and author of Heat: How to Stop the Planet Burning.
