Stephen Sackur talks to climate economist, Lord Nicholas Stern.

Stephen Sackur speaks to the British climate economist, Lord Nicholas Stern. What evidence is there that more expensive renewable energy won't effect economic growth?

World leaders gathered at a UN climate summit in New York recently and pledged again to tackle global warming. Yet again this year global greenhouse emissions have risen, partly because many politicians and citizens don't want more expensive renewable energy if it costs economic growth and prosperity. HARDtalk speaks to the British climate economist, Lord Nicholas Stern, who has just co-chaired a new report on the climate and economy - he says it's not an either or situation. But what evidence is there that we can have it both ways and are governments listening?
