Ministers from around world seek common ground ahead of COP26

With fewer than 100 days to go before the Glasgow Cop26 summit, they’ve been trying to find common ground on a range of issues, from phasing out coal and preventing deforestation, to helping developing countries adapt to the impact of climate change.
