Take a look at their profiles for their insight on the key events this week.
It's been an incredibly busy fortnight for our OU observers at #COP26, and they're not quite finished yet.

“The next time someone says ‘fossil fuel subsidies’, remember they are talking about our so-called ‘leaders’ using working people’s taxes to invest in the deaths of children & the planet.”
– @kuminaidoo at #COP26 on why it’s a crucial necessity to #StopFundingFossils immediately
#SIDS are always the ones who are asked to compromise our interests in order to reach consensus. These are not just words that we are conceding, it is our lives, livelihoods and our future. We will not leave @COP26 without assurances that our calls have been heard and addressed.
👏Hugely positive announcement from @ScotGovFM@NicolaSturgeon An extra 50% rise in Scotland's Climate Justice Fund with more for irreversible climate damage. As #COP26 enters last hours, ALL rich nations must now step up. https://t.co/RWrgQgWycg @OxfamScotland@Oxfam@oxfamgb
Delivering on climate finance is key to success at #COP26
Scotland’s a small nation but can lead by example.
Having already committed to doubling our Climate Justice fund, I’m announcing we’ll treble it instead.
I call on other countries to step up too https://t.co/D3tq7sfKdQ
"There is no better measure that the world is still failing to understand the #ClimateCrisis than it’s failure to fund the mechanism for #LossAndDamage. It is a denial of the crisis, and it is a denial of the fact that 20-40% of the worlds population today is in a code red zone."
Important meeting today with faith leaders from the Global South - developed countries must understand the severe human impact of climate change that many are already experiencing & act with urgency. Loss & damage is no abstract concept - it’s about lives and livelihoods #COP26
First Minister of Scotland @NicolaSturgeon has shown herself to be a true leader by putting a Million Pounds into a @LossDamage fund and has challenged other leaders to step up. Four more days left to see if there are any more true leaders from the developed countries.
Such a powerful image - the Minister from Tuvalu in the South Pacific delivered his speech to #COP26 from the sea to illustrate the crisis they face with rising sea levels
Today hundreds of thousands all over the world marched for the climate, sending a clear signal to people in power at #COP26 to protect people and planet. Our so-called “leaders” aren’t leading - THIS is what leadership looks like! #UprootTheSystem

Many people,including philanthropists now speaking about 'Climate Justice' which they usually equate with 'Just Transition' for the workers in fossil fuel companies who may lose their jobs. They need to address the biggest 'Climate Injustice': @LossDamage https://t.co/IXG7qoz6if
