COP26: Thousands of activists march through Glasgow to demand action on climate change
Thousands of young activists have begun marching through the streets of Glasgow to demand action on climate change from leaders and politicians at Cop26.
Campaigner Greta Thunberg, fellow activist Vanessa Nakate and other young campaigners, as well as local trade unionists, will speak to crowds at the end of the march through the city where the UN summit is being held.
The climate strike has been organised by Fridays for Future Scotland, with participants marching from Kelvingrove Park to George Square.
