Everyone will be able to visit the presentations at the ‘green zone’ at COP26 – opening in Glasgow tomorrow (Monday 1 November) – thanks to an online portal provided by the organisers of the United Nations (UN) event.
The whole event and conference is split into various colour-coded areas, based on the security level required for visitors.
The Green Zone is being staged at the Glasgow Science Centre.
