Her majesty the Queen sent in a pre-recorded video to COP-26, urging governments around the world to take the climate fight seriously.
The Queen, had been scheduled to attend the United Nations conference in Glasgow but was last week advised by doctors to stay home and rest.
She sent in the pre-recorded video to make up for her absence.

It’s understood she pre-recorded her address last week at Windsor Castle after being advised to rest following medical checks
The Prince of Wales and Duke of Cambridge are both attending the COP26 conference, which is seen as a crucial gathering if temperature increases and climate changes are to be limited.
She paid tribute to her late husband Prince Philip in her address, stating the “impact of the environment on human progress was a subject close to the heart” of her late husband.
She recalled the Duke of Edinburgh’s warning to a 1969 academic gathering in which he spoke of the dangers of failing to address pollution.

Albanese distances from Chalmers’ tax proposal on superannuation, amid rising concerns over voter sentiment and retirement savings.
Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has moved to distance himself from Treasurer Jim Chalmers’ proposal to increase taxes on high-balance superannuation accounts, signalling internal caution as cost-of-living pressures remain front of mind for voters.

The United States has pledged to protect Ukraine from future Russian attacks, signaling strong support for European security. Washington will also seek Senate approval for its proposed role in the region, highlighting its commitment to defending allies and deterring further aggression.
In Berlin, talks between U.S., Ukrainian, and European leaders have reportedly made significant progress, with discussions focusing on security guarantees and potential frameworks for a peace deal with Russia. Territorial concessions remain a major sticking point, with negotiators carefully weighing Ukraine’s sovereignty against the urgency of ending the conflict.
