The Glasgow Agreement is an independently run website founded in Scotland to help amplify the conversation around the climate debate and COP26 being held in November 2021. It is published by climate and well-being focused media consultants Skog Media Associates.
It has no official designation with the official COP26 conference, the UN, UK or Scottish Governments, or other member states. Views expressed are those of individual contributors and not necessarily the publisher.
We are encouraging people and organisations to take part in our Dear Glasgow letter writing project to express their hopes and priorities for action they hope will be taken by world leaders participating in the conference. Contributions should be emailed – with a portrait photo – to glasgowagreement@gmail.com
These can be written, or video / audio.
