Cop26 a 'chance to win a victory for the next century'

Former US Secretary of State and current speial climate envoy John Kerry said all countries must work together, with G20 countries, the world's largest economies including China and India as well as the US and UK who account for 80% of emissions, particularly responsible for action.

Cop26 is the "chance to win a victory for the next century, for life on this planet", US climate envoy John Kerry has said, while warning all big emitters must take action on climate change.

Speaking at London School of Economics (LSE) before the Cop26 United Nations climate summit kicks off in Glasgow, Mr Kerry said there was "real, meaningful and growable" momentum among countries and businesses to drive a shift to green economies.
