With #COP26 only days away, we decided to dive into the UK's government claim to "deliver the most inclusive COP ever".
For a few months now, there's been a strong backlash from many activists and frontline communities on this promise as between vaccine inequality, difficult visa procedures and skyrocketing cost of travel and lodging, it's been an extremely hard journey to access the COP.
To understand those challenges, who will be attending, the role of fossil fuel corporations and the consequences of this unfair access, we talked to Ayisha Siddiqa, co-founder and executive director of Polluters Out.
If you're still unsure of whether you should give it a listen, read this "only very selected few will be able to attend COP26. Those who are privileged enough to afford vaccines, expensive flights and are lucky to find housing. It is a showcase of inequity as its finest".
