Holding Cop next to the rainforest is symbolic. But emissions from forest fires in the Amazon are greater than its capacity to absorb CO2

It is now the Congo Basin that offers the world’s best hope against climate change

But it too is under threat

Indonesia is a test case for the energy transition

Its coal consumption more than doubled over the past 10 years and it ranks 8th in the world for carbon emissions

So it was a big moment when it launched a $20bn plan to shift from coal to clean energy

3/ At the centre of the auction is @DidierBudimbu, DRC’s minister of hydrocarbons

In 2014 he was sentenced to 2.5 years in prison for defrauding a married couple – he was part of a group that blackmailed them for €2 million with nude photos and spent the proceeds on luxury goods
