My issue with all of this is that people like me would take this a bit more serious if people like the 44th POTUS didn't fly all the way to Glasgow to deliver a speech on how burning fossil fuels is bad for the environment.
I think change is good. This change is going to be disruptive but good. It's a huge opportunity for new kinds of jobs.
However, I think symbolism matters. Doing COP26 over zoom like the rest of us have been doing meetings the last 18 months would make their pleas more palatable.

I don't follow or listen to Greta Thunberg but I heard her speech on Friday when I had the news on and she had a few very good soundbites that were on point when it came to calling out COP26. She said that COP26 was a failure and that the conference was just a PR event for the leaders. She also said that COP26 was a global brainwashing festival.
