i'm amy goodman. negotiators at a crucial united nations climate summit in glasgow, scotland, have released a first draft of the cop26 final decision text. it is being blasted by environmentalists as exceptionally weak. greenpeace noted the 850-word document fails to acknowledge that fossil fuels are driving the climate crisis, while making no commitment to tangible actions to end global reliance on coal, oil and gas. the draft text's release came as former president barack obama traveled to glasgow, where he called on world leaders to step up their actions to avert climate disaster, while blasting china and russia for hindering progress on the climate emergency. mitzi tan, a youth climate activist from the philippines, said obama's words rang hollow. >> the u.s. is the country that is most responsible for the climate crisis and yet they have barely done anything. they have promised so much, pledged so much, enough considering the amount of emissions, the amount of pollution, the amount of injustices
