BBC World Service - Weekend, UN climate change summit gets underway

‘Watershed moment’ as UN climate summit begins

The COP27 summit on climate change is beginning in the Egyptian resort of Sharm el-Sheikh.

The UN's annual climate change summit starts with hosts Egypt billing it as the world's 'watershed moment' on climate action.

Also, we speak to Nichol Naranjo who bought the house her mother Margaret Gaxiola had cleaned for 43 years.

Plus, the new film, 'Call Jane' on the true story of an underground network that helped women in 1906s America access safe abortions.

Joining Julian Worricker to discuss these and other issues are Noga Tarnopolski, a freelance reporter in Jerusalem; and Mike Martin, a senior visiting fellow at the Department of War Studies at King's College London.
