China's carbon emissions fall for first time in 2025

Available for 25 days

Chinese emissions of carbon dioxide fell for the first time in 2025. The decrease was marginal but could represent a milestone. Rapid increases in the use of solar and wind power enegy has meant the country's energy sector emissions remained flat, even as the demand for electricity increased. We look at this significant development. Voters are heading to the polls in Bangladesh for the first time since a deadly uprising in 2024 unseated the authoritarian prime minister, Sheikh Hasina. We go live to Bangladesh. And we report from South Africa where a survivor of Epstein's abuse has told the BBC she believes the British royal family’s reaction to the latest release of the Epstein files has been too little too late.
