April 27, 2024 - PBS News Weekend full episode

Season 2024 Episode 119 | 26m 44s

Saturday on PBS News Weekend, we examine the future of noncompete agreements after the Federal Trade Commission voted to ban the practice. Then, why Ecuador, once known as a major tourist destination, is now a hotbed for violence and turf wars. Plus, a new book explores the history of climate change, uncertainty about the planet’s future and a dose of hope for saving it.

Aired: 04/26/24 | Expires: 05/27/24
