COP26: How All Governments Can Address Climate Change (w/ Scotland Cabinet Secretary for Net Zero Michael Matheson)

On this installment of our series, The Road To COP26 Presented By Octopus Energy, we speak with Scotland's Cabinet Secretary for Net Zero, Energy, and Transport, Michael Matheson. He provides insight into what all levels of government, not just national governments, can do to deliver a just and sustainable transition and why future COPs should be inclusive of local governments as well.

Co-hosts Ty Benefiel and Brock Benefiel also discuss the first draft of the COP26 Cover Decision and the United States and China agreement to boost cooperation in combating climate change.
