One hundred world leaders are meeting ahead of December's make-or-break conference in Copenhagen aimed at approving a global climate change treaty to replace the Kyoto Protocol. Our Economics Editor, Paul Mason will be live in New York and our Science Editor Susan Watts will be assessing the chances of success. And Jeremy will be speaking to Tony Blair who is also in New York about the obstacles to an international agreement. Plus, shortly after President Obama's UN address on climate change he'll be hosting talks with the Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu and the Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas. Our Diplomatic Editor, Mark Urban will be watching for signs of a break through. Also tonight Paul Mason reports from the small, working class town of Clairton, Pennsylvania, famous as the location for the 1978 film, The Deer Hunter.
