G7: Vaccines and climate pledges but plenty of questions as summit ends
Questions over whether the pledges go far enough, fast enough remain
G7 leaders meeting in the UK made big pledges around vaccines for developing countries, and new climate targets. But did they go far enough, and is there a financial will both inside and outside the G7 to press ahead with the plans? We ask Terry Haines of Pangaea Policy in Washington DC and Anthony Dworkin from the European Council on Foreign Relations.
Also on the programme the economist Michael Hughes looks at looming inflation worries in the US, whilst Paul McBride the founder of Irish technology firm Peroptyx ponders whether the unpredictability of the pandemic, is actually impacting the predictability the algorithms that dictate our digital world rely on.
