Description

On this installment of our series, The Road To COP26 Presented By Octopus Energy, we kickoff our two week special coverage of COP26 in Glasgow with Time Magazine's Justin Worland, senior correspondent covering climate change, about what to expect from this year's critical United Nation's conference on climate change. Justin explains the biggest issues on the table at this year's negotiations, why this year's conference is a big test for multilateralism, and what it's like to be in Glasgow during the meetings. He also talks about his recent piece "The Diplomat: John Kerry Brings America Back To The Climate Fight" and what COP26 could mean for the legacy of the US Special Presidential Envoy on Climate. Co-hosts Ty Benefiel and Brock Benefiel also react to COP26 President Alok Sharma's kickoff press conference and discuss the stakes for world leaders as they gather for the opening days as the conference begins with a rocky start.  Subscribe to Time Magazine's Climate Newsletter Thank you to our sponsor Octopus Energy, a 100% renewable electricity supplier.
