Kumi Naidoo on U.S. Skipping COP30, Why Rich Nations Must Pay a Climate Debt, Gaza, Sudan & More

As Democracy Now! broadcasts from the COP30 U.N. climate summit, we speak with Kumi Naidoo, the longtime South African human rights and environmental justice activist who is president of the Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty Initiative. He discusses U.S. absence from climate talks, Gaza, and wealthy countries refusing to take accountability for the climate crisis. We're not asking the rich nations for a charity here. We are asking them to pay their climate debt."
