· RTE.ie

Three young Irish delegates have expressed their frustration with the lack of progress at COP29, the UN's climate summit.

Áine Dempsey, Cian Walsh and Jessica Dunne are attending this year's talks which are nearing their halfway mark in Azerbaijan’s capital, Baku.

Yesterday, a group of influential climate policy experts, including former UN secretary-general Ban Ki-moon and the former president of Ireland Mary Robinson, declared the annual conference of the parties was "no longer fit for purpose".

Watch our video to hear Áine, Cian and Jessica discuss slow progress, the choice of another petrostate host following last year's summit in UAE, and the continuing influence of fossil fuel lobbyists.
