I am delighted to welcome you all to the 26th United Nations Climate Change Conference; and it is perhaps fitting that you have come together in Glasgow, once a heartland of the industrial revolution, but now a place to address climate change.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;This is a duty I am especially happy to discharge, as the impact of the environment on human progress was a subject close to the heart of my dear late husband, Prince Philip, The Duke of Edinburgh.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I remember well that in 1969, he told an academic gathering: &#8216;If the world pollution situation is not critical at the moment, it is as certain as anything can be, that the situation will become increasingly intolerable within a very short time \u2026 If we fail to cope with this challenge, all the other problems will pale into insignificance.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0&#8216;It is a source of great pride to me that the leading role my husband played in encouraging people to protect our fragile planet, lives on through the work of our eldest son Charles and his eldest son William. I could not be more proud of them. Indeed, I have drawn great comfort and inspiration from the relentless enthusiasm of people of all ages \u2013 especially the young \u2013 in calling for everyone to play their part.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;In the coming days, the world has the chance to join in the shared objective of creating a safer, stabler future for our people and for the planet on which we depend.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;None of us underestimates the challenges ahead: but history has shown that when nations come together in common cause, there is always room for hope. Working side by side, we have the ability to solve the most insurmountable problems and to triumph over the greatest of adversities.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0&#8216;For more than seventy years, I have been lucky to meet and to know many of the world&#8217;s great leaders. And I have perhaps come to understand a little about what made them special.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;It has sometimes been observed that what leaders do for their people today is government and politics. But what they do for the people of tomorrow \u2014 that is statesmanship. I, for one, hope that this conference will be one of those rare occasions where everyone will have the chance to rise above the politics of the moment, and achieve true statesmanship.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;It is the hope of many that the legacy of this summit \u2013 written in history books yet to be printed \u2013 will describe you as the leaders who did not pass up the opportunity; and that you answered the call of those future generations. That you left this conference as a community of nations with a determination, a desire, and a plan, to address the impact of climate change; and to recognise that the time for words has now moved to the time for action.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Of course, the benefits of such actions will not be there to enjoy for all of us here today: we none of us will live forever. But we are doing this not for ourselves but for our children and our children&#8217;s children, and those who will follow in their footsteps. And so, I wish you every good fortune in this significant endeavour. &#8216;<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Biden then sat forward and rubbed his eyes as Italy&#8217;s prime minister took the stage. It came just hours after his G20 press conference on Sunday night where he reverted to a pre-approved list of reporters to answer questions and fueled further attacks from critics questioning his fitness to be President.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Biden arrived after his first day at the climate summit, where he apologized for his predecessor Donald Trump taking the United States out of the Paris Climate Accord. And he pledged the U.S. would up its financial stake in fighting climate change, arguing the biggest producers of it should be its biggest investors in fixing it.<\/p>\n<p>The Queen was originally supposed to host the event but skipped COP26 on the advice from doctors.\u00a0 In a video-taped address, she urged world leaders to &#8216;earn a place in history&#8217; and &#8216;answer the call of those future generations.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Her Majesty, 95,\u00a0<span>\u00a0told leaders &#8216;to rise above the politics of the moment, and achieve true statesmanship.&#8217;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>She went on to say that &#8216;none of us will live forever&#8217; and &#8216;we are doing this not for ourselves but for our children and our children&#8217;s children, and those who will follow in their footsteps&#8217; as she urged leaders to reach decisive COP climate change deals.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>In her most personal speech ever, the monarch also paid tribute to Prince Philip and described how &#8216;<\/span>the impact of the environment on human progress&#8217; was a subject close to the heart of her &#8216;dear late husband&#8217; &#8211; who in 1969 told an academic gathering: &#8216;If we fail to cope with this challenge, all the other problems will pale into insignificance.&#8217;<span>\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p> He stayed for nearly an hour. He even took some selfies with fans.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Kate Middleton looked the picture of poise in a blue coat dress and navy heels as she walked alongside Prince William in a dapper suit at the arrival.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Wearing her hair back in a low bun, the Duchess opted for a glamorous make-up look for the ceremony tonight where she was hosted Prince Charles, Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall and Boris Johnson as well as key members of the\u00a0<span>Sustainable Markets Initiative and the Winners and Finalists of the first Earthshot Prize Awards.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Her custom dress came from Eponine&#8217;s SS20 collection and made from a double wool crepe fabric, the price is available on application but similar dresses cost around $3,278.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Camilla, 74, opted for a teal Bruce Oldfield featuring buttons recycled from another outfit.<\/p>\n<p>William and Kate&#8217;s appearance comes just hours after royal couple, both 39, visited Alexandra Park Sports Hub in Dennistoun to meet with Scouts from and learn more about the group&#8217;s\u2019 #PromiseToThePlanet campaign.<\/p>\n<p>The event marks the first engagement for the couple since they arrived in the Scottish city for the\u00a0COP26\u00a0conference which has brought world leaders together to discuss urgent action on climate change.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier on Monday, Biden\u00a0delivered his plans for cutting carbon emissions with a dose of hot air on Monday, as organizers of a global climate summit &#8216;gonged&#8217; him for blasting past his allotted three minutes.<\/p>\n<p>The famously talkative president pushed the benefits of a green economy saying the U.S. would lead by example.<\/p>\n<p>Ignoring the audible warnings, he said the &#8216;eyes of history&#8217; were on the delegates and unveiled a detailed plan to cut emissions on the path to a net zero carbon economy by 2050.<\/p>\n<p>It will demonstrate to the world, he said, &#8216;the United States is not only back at the table, but hopefully leading by the power of our example.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I know it hasn&#8217;t been the case. And that&#8217;s why my administration is working overtime to show that our Climate Commitment is action, not words.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>World leaders were told to stick to three minutes for their speeches by organizers.<\/p>\n<p>Transgressors were reminded of the limit by a gong ringing out every minute once their time was up.<\/p>\n<p>Eight times it sounded for Biden.<\/p>\n<p>The warning made little difference and he wrapped up after more than 11 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>Minutes later he did the same thing in a side meeting, speaking for eight minutes when participants had been told to stick to two.<\/p>\n<p>On this occasion, British Prime Minister came to his rescue, saying Biden had not been in the room when the instructions were laid out.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Everybody will understand the huge importance of the United States in helping the world to take action and show solidarity,&#8217; he said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I think for that reason alone, I think it was worth allowing the rules &#8230; to be bent.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Administration officials have made clear that U.S. leadership is the theme of their six-day trip to Europe.<\/p>\n<p>They do not say it explicitly but they want to draw a line under the Trump years and and an &#8216;America First outlook<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2021\/11\/02\/11\/49917959-10154017-Israel_s_Prime_Minister_Naftali_Bennett_President_Joe_Biden_and_-a-19_1635852868957.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Israel&#8217;s Prime Minister Naftali Bennett, President Joe Biden and British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, from left, chat at the reception<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2021\/11\/02\/11\/49918761-10154017-British_Prime_Minister_Boris_Johnson_left_greets_Britain_s_Princ-a-20_1635852869131.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, left, greets Britain&#8217;s Prince William and Kate, Duchess of Cambridge as they arrive to attend an evening reception at COP26<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2021\/11\/02\/11\/49918967-10154017-President_Biden_appeared_invigorated_at_the_reception-a-22_1635852869148.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>President Biden appeared invigorated at the reception<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2021\/11\/02\/11\/49917409-10154017-Relaxed_royal_Kate_laughs_as_she_offers_a_tub_of_dead_larvae_use-a-21_1635852869142.jpg\" height=\"422\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Relaxed royal!
