As the sun sets on the final hours of the UN Climate Change Conference in Glasgow, Scotland, we take one last look back with a slideshow of images from the past thirteen days at COP26.
Some of the highlights from the two-week meeting included the signing of the Glasgow Leaders’ Declaration on Forests and Land Use, a pledge to halt and reverse forest loss and land degradation by 2030. The United States and China agreed to work together to tackle climate change by reducing methane emissions, protecting forests, and phasing out coal—though skeptics will await tangible results. Low-income countries want concrete climate rules and financial commitments from major greenhouse gas emitters. Indigenous climate activist Txai Suruí gave a powerful speech, as did Barbados’ Prime Minister Mia Amor Mottley, and former President Barack Obama.
