Watch live as world leaders arrive at Cop26

The Glasgow Cop26 climate summit began with world leaders facing calls for urgent action to limit dangerous temperature increases.

Boris Johnson welcomed numerous heads of state and government on Monday morning, and will tell them later that humanity has “long passed the time for climate change” and must act now to deal with the crisis as the planet is now at “one minute to midnight”.

Chinese President Xi Jinping will address the climate conference in a written statement on Monday, according to an official schedule, but will not attend.

Russian Vladimir Putin will also be absent and Turk Tayyip Erdogan returned home after the G20 meeting in Rome rather than attending. Meanwhile, climate activist Greta Thunberg said she had not even been invited by organizers to join the conference.

Archbishop of Canterbury says tackling climate change is a “moral issue”

The Archbishop of Canterbury said tackling climate change is a moral issue.

Explaining what he hopes to achieve by being in Glasgow, Bishop Justin Welby said he was there to listen, especially the countries most affected, and to encourage those who are making progress.

When asked if tackling climate change was a moral issue, he told BBC Radio 4 Today program: “This is absolutely a moral question.

“These are our neighbors all over the world, the ones already suffering catastrophic impacts, that’s life or death.”

He told the program: “The success in Glasgow is that it gives confidence to the world’s poorest and voters in the north of the world that this is achievable.

“This is what success looks like: Steps have been taken that mean we will meet the 1.5 degree target. It’s doable.

China is the world’s largest source of greenhouse gas emissions. However, Xi has not left China since the start of the Covid pandemic in 2020 and was not expected to attend the conference in person.

Sturgeon “shares” Johnson’s pessimism on Cop26

Nicola Sturgeon said she “shared” Boris Johnson’s pessimism about a positive outcome of the climate talks at Cop26.

The Scottish Prime Minister told Sky News: ‘The Prime Minister is right to be pessimistic at this point – I share his pessimism.

“We must all put the pessimism aside and put our shoulders to the wheel.

“The UK, having the chairmanship of this cop, has a special responsibility to bring leaders together, to bring them together, to encourage them to do more than what they are currently committed to doing.

“There is a big gap on emissions, a big gap on climate finance – so much, a lot of work to do, and I’ll do whatever I can to push it in the right direction.”

Erdogan skips Cop26 over safety issue – report

Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan has canceled plans to attend Cop26 after the UK failed to meet its security demands, two Turkish officials told Reuters.

Mr Erdogan returned to Turkey after a G20 summit in Rome instead of going to the climate summit in Glasgow, and the Turkish presidency has given no reason for his return.

An official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said there were protocol issues regarding the president’s scheduled presence at the meeting. Another Turkish official said British authorities had failed to respond to Turkey’s requests for protocol and security, Reuters reported.

“The president took such a decision because our demands regarding the number of vehicles for security and some other security-related demands have not been fully met,” the senior official told the news agency.

Truss opposed to carbon “meat tax”

Liz Truss said she would not support a “meat tax” on high carbon foods, which is being hailed as a way to reduce the environmental impact of the food chain.

She told Sky News: “I would not support a tax on meat.

“I think it’s really important that we support our fantastic UK farming industry and I think it’s important that instead of using the stick to encourage people to become more climate-friendly, we use the carrot, if that doesn’t mix metaphors with meat.

“And we’re actually making a climate-friendly lifestyle more affordable for people. “
