Wealthier countries must deliver on climate finance promises they made to the developing world for the UK-hosted Cop26 to be deemed a success, a senior British environmentalist said.

Lord Deben, the chairman of the Climate Change Committee, an independent body that advises the UK government on global warming, said "better ways of thinking about offsetting" emissions would also be an important part of the discussions at the climate conference, which is scheduled to take place in Glasgow in November.

"The money actually not only being promised but delivered for the developing countries is going to be a really important part of it," Lord Deben told an event organised by Global Counsel when asked what a successful Cop26 would entail.
