Panorama

Today's program includes news on the recent Oxfam report on inequality and the up-coming World Economic Fórum at Davos, where the global elite meet each year and this year are scheduled to address the challenges of the climate emergency, though expectations of any effective response are low. Extreme weather continues to strike the devastated east and south of Australia in the midst of the worst wave of bushfires. Spain and other developed nations that sent their garbage (in this case plastic) to Malaysia have received it back again, in shipping containers. That and other stories are followed by pieces from Albéniz's Iberia Suite, performed on piano and on guitar.
