Douglas Alexander witnessed disappointment first hand as part of the British Ministerial Delegation to COP in Copenhagen in 2009. Now the biggest summit the UK has ever hosted is coming to his home city of Glasgow, Douglas asks leading international figures including John Kerry, Christiana Figueres, Mark Carney and Alok Sharma what it will take to make a success of COP26.

If the conference does set an ambitious agenda for reaching net zero carbon emissions, what will it mean for the city and indeed all of us? Douglas hears from Sir Anton Muscatelli, Principal of Glasgow University, Chief Executive of Scottish Power Renewables Lindsay McQuade, Professor Tahseen Jafry, Director of the Centre for Climate Justice at Glasgow Caledonian University, cleansing worker and GMB representative Chris Mitchell, and Laura Young, a climate activist known as Less Waste Laura.
