For the past week, thousands of activists and members of people's movements have been mobilizing daily in Glasgow, demanding concrete solutions for the climate emergency. The Scottish City of Glasgow is the venue of the UN Climate Change Conference of Parties, or COP26, which commenced on October 31. On Saturday, November 6th, as part of efforts to bring the agenda of people's movements to the fore, activists from across the world marked a global day of action to demand climate justice. Hi, I am Ving, and I am Rina, and we're part of our coma. It's a new movement of the Ocas Party in Belgium, and we're here in Glasgow with the delegation of 200 students and people, because we want to give a big signal to politicians and governments that it's climate justice now, and our message is saying climate, stop it for leaders. Yes, so the reason we chose this slogan is because we find it very important that the climate policy that we have is structural, social, and ambitious. So we cannot leave people behind, we cannot follow by individual actions such as, you know, eating less meat or taking more than part is important, but we also need structural social change that also incorporates the workers and their lived experience in our climate struggle. Despite heavy rain and extreme cold weather, more than 100,000 people hit the streets. Indigenous organizations, frontline communities, trade unions, youth groups, peace and anti-war organizations, communist and left organizations, and different environmental groups took part in the march. While the participants represented a wide spectrum of causes, they were united around the recognition that without system change, it would be impossible to save the planet and advance climate justice. Hello, my name is Yonah. I'm the Europe Court Leader for BDS Campaign, Boycott Divestment Movement, which is a Palestinian-led global and terrorist movement. So we're here today in Glasgow because Palestine is a climate justice issue. Israel is making himself and itself green, but it's totally greenwashing because they are like using Palestinian natural resources, destroying Palestinian lands, violating rights of indigenous Palestinian people. They are extracting gas and natural resources from Palestine, and all of this with the complicity of European governments and the European Union. So we're here today to stop the greenwashing and to really say that natural gas is a fossil fuel and we need to really work together, unite our struggle and be all united for climate justice. The mobilization in Glasgow proceeded mostly without incident. However, around 3pm, over 100 police officers forcibly removed the contingent, largely comprised of members of the Young Communist League of Britain. At the top 26 people's march, the police have blocked the road and have arrested a group of people. The people have been chanting, let them go. They don't want to move. They don't want the march to continue. They are very much convinced that they don't want to abandon a section of the marchers. It looks like it's the standard. The police are not going to budge. Other policemen are saying that the march must go on. But this is the nature of democracy. It looks like in the United Kingdom. Activists allege that the United Nations and the FORA, in which the issues pertaining to climate change are discussed, have been unwilling to hold countries such as the US and the European Union accountable. This is unsurprising, considering that the COP26 had among its primary sponsors companies such as Unilever, National Grid and Microsoft, and attendees and speakers such as Jeff Bezos and CEOs from major oil and gas companies. Hi, I'm Julie from Belgium from the Movement for International Solidarity called Intel. And we are here because we strongly oppose that multinational companies are getting a seat at the table in the climate summit. And it's really scandalous. For example, Unilever is one of the biggest sponsors of the COP26, but it's also a highly investor in palm oil that is destroying rainforests in Colombia and Philippines, basically all over the world. And it's also violently expelling indigenous populations and farmers from their lands. It makes no sense that they should get a say or a positive image from this COP. So that's what we are fighting against. And international solidarity is so important because those companies are also organized internationally. So we as people as working class should also stick together and support one another. So that's why we are here. I'm here with a coalition of environmental and peace groups. And we're really calling out the government's military carbon emissions, which are huge. The Pentagon is the single largest emitter of carbon as an institution in the world. In the UK, there's something like 40 million cars is produced by the UK's military, same amount of emissions as 40 million cars. So we're talking about huge carbon footprint. And at the moment it's excluded from many of the reporting that countries give of their emissions. There's no requirement for military to be included. So you've got this huge what we call an elephant in the room of the military and the carbon footprint is excluded from climate change. So we can't actually have progress on climate change unless we start to talk about the military's emissions. And that's part of our core here is that they should firstly be transparent about the amount of emissions they produce and secondly that they should start to reduce the emissions in line with the science, which means reducing also the size of the military. And of course that's a big issue because if we start to reduce the military spending we've actually got some of the money we need for things like a Green New Deal that many people are calling for here. So there's a real opportunity to hear, to say that the military can only be part of the solution if they are being reduced and the money has been diverted to what we actually need right now which is protecting our planet and protecting the people. The frustrations felt by movements, communities and organizations with the COP26 process and the attitude to climate change goes beyond the discussions over the past week in Glasgow. The summit itself is discussing agreements that have been made over the past two decades. During this time frontline communities have been engaged in constant resistance in order to protect themselves and their land. Members of these communities have been ignored, criminalized and in the most severe cases scale. Meanwhile the People's Summit for Climate Justice, which aims to bring together the climate justice movement to discuss, learn and strategize for systemic change, has kicked off a number seven.
