A year ago, the world's eyes were focused on Glasgow, Scotland, for what had been billed as the "last best chance" to keep global warming at 1.5 degrees Celsius: the UN climate change conference, COP26.
The UN climate conference — or COP — is the biggest UN conference held outside its New York headquarters, and the primary way countries progress coordinated global action on climate change.
Ahead of the meeting, there were months of high-profile discussions between the most powerful leaders in the world including then-UK prime minister Boris Johnson and US President Joe Biden.
