COP26 Daily

I reported from COP26 in Glasgow, daily between 31st October - 12th November 2021, on a podcast for The Big Light Network.

COP26 was the UN’s 26th Climate Summit in Glasgow. World leaders and negotiators met to accelerate action towards the Paris Agreement adopted in 2015. Thousands of delegates and activists were also in the city, campaigning on behalf of future generations.

I was at the conference, reporting on the key stories. Guests included: Ed Miliband (former UK Labour leader), Patti Smith (singer-songwriter and poet), Amber Rudd (former UK Home Secretary), Mohamed Nasheed (former President of the Maldives) and Kate Forbes MSP (Scottish Government’s Cabinet Secretary for Finance and the Economy).
