This year’s UN climate summit, COP26, will see some 20,000 delegates convene in Glasgow to figure out how the world is going to continue to address climate change. In the midst of a pandemic, extreme weather events and escalating climate-induced migration around the world, this COP is being billed as one of the most critical yet.
While cutting fossil fuels and greenhouse gas emissions will be the focus of the official negotiations between countries and other parties to the UN, the Global Landscapes Forum will host a three-day event, GLF Climate (5–7 November), to also amplify the latest science and innovation happening in three other areas crucial for mitigating and adapting to a warming world: forests, food systems and finance.
While only a limited number of in-person tickets are available for the event, online seats are open to all. Share what outcomes are most important for you and your future in our two-minute poll, and you’ll receive a free digital ticket and the chance to contribute your voice to this major event alongside the COP.
