Cop26: What has been agreed at the climate change summit? – The National

Although a final deal is yet to be agreed at Cop26, the two-week summit has produced a long list of promises and announcements aimed at reining in global warming.

The Glasgow talks began with a promise to focus on four key areas: coal, cars, cash and trees, as UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson put it.

As well as announcements on these, there were landmark promises on greenhouse gas emissions and a surprise deal between two of the world’s largest polluters.
