The Antarctic: The ‘untold’ climate story of the season

By BBC World Service

Amid a year of heatwaves and wildfires you might have missed that winter sea-ice surrounding Antarctica is at a record low. The BBC’s Georgina Rannard explains why.

And we speak to Dr Robbie Mallett who’s in the Antarctic. He talks us through why it’s so important - and underreported.

Plus, Tiffanie Turnbull gives us an update on how Australians are feeling after the country voted against a plan to give greater political rights to Indigenous people.
