'Very disappointing' climate deal reached

BBC World Service - Newshour, 'Very disappointing' climate deal reached

The COP25 climate summit ends with progress, but how much?

The COP25 UN climate summit in Madrid ends with a 'mixed-bag' agreement.

A marathon UN climate conference has ended with the promise of stronger commitments to reduce greenhouse gases. But there has been no decision on keys areas like carbon trading.

Also on the programme: protests continue in India against a new citizenship bill that critics say is designed to marginalise Muslims; and the US universities offering sports scholarships for gamers.
