    On Monday's Backchat, we looked back at the 30th United Nations Climate Change Conference - or Cop30 - that has wrapped up in Brazil. Countries were expected to submit their progress on carbon reductions, and discussions on topics ranging from biodiversity to climate financing were at the top of the agenda. Environmental pundits will tell us all about the 10-day conference.

    After the break, we spoke to a Hong Kong, China rugby star who recently helped the SAR squad clinch gold at the National Games, and the Kai Tak Sports Park general manager, about how the sport is flourishing in the city.
