Think tank Carbon Tracker projects trillions of dollars of losses for major oil nations.
Think tank Carbon Tracker projects trillions of dollars of losses for major oil nations. Andrew Grant is Carbon Tracker's head of climate, energy and industry, and explains the basis of the predictions. And we hear how the countries involved plan to diversify away from oil, with energy analyst Cornelia Meyer of consultancy Meyer Resources. And Microsoft's President, Brad Smith, has backed the Australian government in a row about whether online giants should have to pay for news that appears in searches, or is shared on their platforms; we get analysis from Rebecca Klar, a tech journalist from The Hill. Also in the programme, as the second cricket test match in this series between India and England starts this weekend, the 成人快手's Rahul Tandon reports that more Indian players are now coming from smaller towns than bigger cities, and how that reflects a broader economic change taking place in the country. And with Valentine's Day approaching this weekend, our reporter Deborah Weitzmann meets some of those looking for, and finding, love.
