Talks in Geneva to reverse the loss of nature and halt extinctions are in their final day. Marco Lambertini is director general of the wildlife and nature charity WWF International, and tells us what progress is being made towards the text of a UN framework aimed at protecting biodiversity. Also in the programme, the war in Ukraine is halting moves aimed at limiting the use of palm oil, which is a cause of deforestation in Asia. The price of one alternative, sunflower oil, has increased massively since the conflict began, and supermarket chain Iceland has reversed its pledge to remove palm oil from its own-label food. We find out more from Glenn Hurowitz of the Washington DC campaign group, Mighty Earth. The Democratic Republic of Congo is the latest country to join the East African Community, which is a common market of states in the region, including Kenya and Tanzania. Our African business correspondent Peter Mwangangi explains what membership of the EAC will mean for the Congolese people. Plus, the 主播大秀's Jo Critcher reports on how drones are now being used all over the world for humanitarian purposes.

Today's edition is presented by Mike Johnson, and produced by George Thomas, Sarah Hawkins and Tom Kavanagh.
