Climate indicators breaking records

We get your questions answered on the latest international report on the state of the climate.

We get your questions answered on the latest international report on the state of the climate. The global temperature in 2021 didn鈥檛 break previous records, but other indicators did, like sea level and CO2 concentration in the atmosphere.

We follow the story of the evacuations of Ukrainian troops from the steelworks in Mariupol. It鈥檚 unclear whether they鈥檙e going to be freed by Russia in return for Russian prisoners, with lawmakers in Russia discussing a legal ban on exchanging Ukrainian fighters.

Our correspondent in Afghanistan tells us about his visit to underground schools for girls operating after the new Taliban rulers only allowed boys to return to regular classes.

And we hear from people in the United States impacted by the shortage of baby formula.
