#COP26

1/ The Glasgow Climate Pact is agreed.

Far from everything it should be, but many positives that must be built on. Limiting warming to 1.5 degrees now agreed imperative, movement on finance and (far too weak) wording on fossil fuels…

2/ clear path to 1.5 degrees still needed (obligation for countries to come back next year with higher ambition to cut emissions vital) and lack of facility for loss & damage disappointing. The latter is a failure of our moral obligation to developing world and must be rectified

3/ having led on loss & damage in Glasgow - and secured some vital progress - I pledge that @scotgov will push this issue relentlessly in run up to COP27. It is an issue of reparation not charity and developed nations must step up.

4/ @scotgov will do more detailed analysis in hours to come. For now - my thanks to the inspirational @PEspinosaC and to @AlokSharma_RDG for all their hard work. There have been failures of political leadership in this process but not on their part.

5/ Also - and importantly - I could not be prouder of my home city. Hosting an event as massive as #COP26  has not been easy but Glasgow opened its doors and its heart. I’ve been inundated with delegates telling me how wonderful the city is. People really do make Glasgow ❤️

6/ Lastly for now, the battle for our planet is far from won. But the Glasgow Climate Pact gives us some powerful new weapons. It is now for all of us to raise our ambition. @scotgov is determined that we will do so. #COP26
