Interview: CAN director Wendel Trio on COP25, Greta Thunberg and Extinction Rebellion

As EU negotiators headed to Madrid for the 25th conference of parties to the 1992 UN Framework Convention on Climate Change, director Wendel Trio told ENDS that time is running out for Europe to take the lead in global talks, and why established NGOs and street protesters both have a role to play in forcing politicians to act.
