BBC World Service - Newshour, President Biden claims climate change success

US House passes infrastructure bill: is this a significant victory in the climate battle?

The US House of Representatives has passed a 1.2 trillion dollar infrastructure bill. What does this mean in terms of the struggle to slow climate change? We hear from Russell Berman, a reporter in Washington DC, and the environmentally-minded Democratic governor of Washington State, Jay Inslee. 

Also in the programme: the female civil rights activist killed in the Afghan city of Mazar-i-Sharif; and the musical legacy of the young Brazilian singer Marilia Mendonca, who has died in a plane crash.
