All eyes on Glasgow

While it may be a coincidence, it is apt that the 2021 UN Climate Change Conference (COP26) took place in a city whose name is made up of Celtic words that mean the ‘dear green place’. Glasgow, once known as ‘the Second City of the British Empire’, is today racking up firsts when it comes to sustainability. It was the first city outside London to implement a low-emission zone and the first to introduce electric buses (in its airport car parks). Glasgow’s convention bureau was the first in Europe to win a Green Tourism award, and the city ranked third in BNP Paribas Real Estate’s list of green places to live and work outside of London. <a href="https://bvca.medium.com/all-eyes-on-glasgow-e6ec81a0c179">Website</a>
