A few observations on the texts coming out this morning (some agreed, some appearing to be agreed, others with huge question marks):

* Two-year Glasgow-Sharm el-Sheikh work programme on the global goal on adaptation
* Long-term finance discussions would continue until 2027
...

* New collective quantified climate finance goal would be negotiated in an "ad hoc work programme", by 2024
* Standing Committee on Finance to provide inputs on the definition of climate finance to the next COP
* Subsidies, coal and just transition in the cover decisions
...

* Doubling of adaptation finance in CMA cover decision
* A work programme to 'urgently scale up mitigation ambition and implementation in CMA cover decision
* Annual updates of NDC synthesis report in CMA cover decision.

(Note: none of this has yet been adopted.)

Media, and especially UK media, this goes to you. We often seek simple terms to describe climate COPs. And we have milestone COPs and, well, less milestone ones. For me, this was first and foremost a 'Media COP'. And it was not a milestone COP. It was never mean to be. (see next)

I have been to COPs since 2008 and I do not recall a single one where media would have been given so much access to plenary. Informal stocktaking plenaries in the final days were broadcasted live and became partly a political theatre. In between... (continued)

... cameras crowded around huddling delegates. A live broadcast showed US, Chinese and other delegates hashing out final details of the texts. The President got emotional, which then made the evening news.

Why is this important? Because it helps understand this COP. (cont'd)

Looks like a HAC huddle here in plenary.

Presidency's stocktaking is just about to start.

#COP26

Nope, wasn't just HAC. We'll hear soon.

Another huddle.

A 'People's Plenary' convenes at #COP26 to demand more from governments and to express frustration with the exclusion of civil society constituencies from the proceedings at this COP.

UNFCCC observer constituencies make statements in the 'People's Plenary'.

'I did not come here to fix the agenda, I came here to disrupt it', says a rep of Indigenous Peoples.

Women and Gender says: we are exhausted, we are frustrated, we are angry.
