All delegates have been encouraged to consider low-carbon travel options to attend COP26. The Secretary of State travelled by train.

The UK will be offsetting carbon emissions associated with running the event, including the emissions associated with travel.

As the IPCC report underlines, COP26 is vital this November to allow world leaders to come together and set out decisive commitments to tackle climate change.
