We speak to three people who live in regions affected by sea level rise

In the lead up to COP26 climate conference, we are speaking to people who are affected by climate change. We'll hear from three people discussing sea level rise in Jamaica, Florida Keys and the Bahamas.

We'll also get details of a new research warning that all of Africa’s remaining glaciers are on track to disappear by the 2040s.
