Ministers and negotiators at COP26 must 'pull together and drive for the line' in the second week of the conference, Boris Johnson says
On Friday and Saturday, tens of thousands of protesters marched in Glasgow calling for action rather than just more of what activist Greta Thunberg has described as"blah blah blah".Organisers of the protests, the COP26 Coalition, claimed more than 100,000 people turned up to Saturday's protest, despite the weather, adding that an estimated 300 similar events were taking place around the world.
The second week is expected to discuss parts of the 2015 Paris Agreement which still need finalising, markets for trading carbon emissions, transparency over what countries are doing and timeframes for action. Countries will also try to set out a plan for how they will close the gap between what they have pledged under the Paris Agreement and what is needed to avoid temperature rises of more than 1.5C.Some countries are pushing for commitments to be revisited and boosted every year, but there is also some opposition to this.
