The main COP26 headlines todaypublished at 18:30 Greenwich Mean Time 14 November 2021
We're ending our live coverage for today. Before we go, here’s a reminder of today’s main COP26 headlines:
- UN climate chief Patricia Espinosa said the deal reached at the summit was a huge step forward with its unprecedented inclusion of a coal pledge - albeit watered down
- British Prime Minister Boris Johnson and COP26 President Alok Sharma also hailed the "historic" and "game-changing" deal, which Johnson described as the "death knell for coal power"
- Both expressed disappointment over a crucial last minute-change to the agreement, calling for the "phase down" not the "phase out" of coal power
- Sharma said India and China would have to explain themselves to climate-vulnerable nations after they pushed for this
- But he also insisted that the change of language did not represent a failure
- However, activists and NGOs have expressed disappointment over the deal, saying it did not live up to their expectations
