On November 1, Queen Elizabeth II, 95, said in a video address to COP26 participants at the climate summit that "none of us will live forever" and hoped that world leaders would show real political foresight and leave the Glasgow Conference with an action plan to tackle climate change, according to the Russian Satellite News Agency.
The Queen was supposed to attend the COP26 UN climate change conference in Glasgow, but cancelled her attendance after doctors "advised a break". Buckingham Palace said in a statement that "Her Majesty the Queen is disappointed not to attend the reception but will speak to delegates through a video. ”
In her address to the Summit on 1 November, the Queen said: "Many people want you, as communities of nations, to leave this Conference with the intentions, aspirations and plans to address the impacts of climate change, with an understanding that the time of speech has transitioned to the time of action. Of course, not all of us will be able to enjoy the fruits of these actions, and none of us will live forever. But we are doing this not for ourselves, but for our children and our children's children, so I wish you success in this important endeavour. ”
The twenty-sixth meeting of the Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP26), co-hosted by the United Kingdom and Italy, was held in Glasgow from 31 October to 12 November. Representatives of some 200 countries are expected to attend, including world leaders, experts and activists. The World Leaders' Meeting is scheduled for November 1-2. A series of documents on reducing greenhouse gas emissions and achieving carbon neutrality are planned at the summit.
