Washington Post published this video item, entitled “COP26: What’s at stake as tens of thousands of people descend on Scotland” – below is their description. World leaders will gather in Glasgow, Scotland, from Oct. 31 to Nov. 12 for the 26th annual United Nations conference on climate change. COP26 is where the messy details and unfulfilled promises of the Paris agreement will get hashed out. The world has already warmed roughly 1.2 degrees Celsius (2.2 Fahrenheit) since the late 19th century, meaning there isn’t much wiggle room left to halt global warming at 1.5 Celsius — the most ambitious goal set in Paris.
