Demonstrators take part in the Fridays for Future Scotland march through Glasgow ahead of the first anniversary of the Cop26 summit in Glasgow. Picture date: Friday October 28, 2022.
STUDENT campaigners staged a climate strike in Glasgow today in protest against the “failure” of the Cop26 summit that took place in the city one year ago.
Demonstrators from the Fridays For Future Scotland group gathered in Kelvin Way in the morning before marching through the city centre to a rally in George Square, taking the same route that the group followed during Cop26 on November 5 last year.
Organisers said the purpose of the march was to highlight the failures of Cop26 and the links between the climate crisis and the cost-of-living crisis before a new climate summit is held in Egypt next week.
