This year’s climate summit COP26 will be the world’s best chance of building a cleaner, greener future - COP26 President-Designate Alok Sharma in a major speech at Whitelee Windfarm, near Glasgow.
From:
Good morning from Whitelee wind farm.
The epicentre of UK onshore wind.
Where the turbines behind me, some twice the height of the epic Glasgow Cathedral, are powering practically every home in the city.
Where, beneath Scottish skies, every revolution of these enormous blades generates enough electricity to charge 300 mobile phones.
And it is a snapshot, friends, of the future that is within our grasp, if we act now, and we act together, to protect our precious planet.

Someone close to me once described sports achievements and experiences as water under the bridge.
A metaphor to dismiss significance. However, I see it a little differently: the water starts out as just a stream, not very powerful, trickling along at its own pace, indeed - insignificant. But the longer it goes on for, the more momentum it gathers and the stronger the current becomes.
The bigger the stream is, the more space it takes up and the greater influence it begins to have upon the world around it. And then finally, there comes a day when it’s big enough that people aren’t just talking about the stream anymore, they’re talking about the impact it’s had on the landscape that surrounds it, and how it attempts to shape and shift everything in its path.

VAX LIVE: The Concert to Reunite the World campaign helped mobilize over 26 million COVID-19 vaccine doses and $302 million to the ACT-Accelerator to provide equitable access to COVID-19 vaccines, tests, treatments and other medical tools to the world’s most marginalized communities and healthcare workers on the frontlines.
VAX LIVE was taped at SoFi Stadium for a COVID 19-compliant audience composed of fully-vaccinated frontline healthcare and essential workers, and is the first large-scale music event held at the stadium. The goal of the VAX LIVE campaign was to ensure everyone, everywhere has access to COVID-19 vaccines and inspire vaccine confidence worldwide.

For a decade, Global Citizen has worked with celebrities and world leaders to help rally on-the-ground activism and private sector donations to work toward ending extreme poverty. When the pandemic put nearly everything on planet earth on hold last March, Global Citizen quickly pivoted to help tackle the urgent threat, while still highlighting the inequalities that are exacerbated during a global health crisis.
