'Spiritual duty of care'Alex Cochrane, of XR Glasgow, said: " COP26 must end a growing crime against humanity by wealthy governments where the global south are sacrificed to bear the brunt of the global north's affluent, Carbon -intensive lifestyles.
" We welcome The Pilgrims of Faith - and no Faith - who are walking to COP26 to demand governments also walk The Walk for the global south. "
Yaz Ashmawi, of XR Pilgrim, said: " Countries around The World are already suffering the consequences of our historic emissions in The West , and Small Island states like The Maldives will be submerged by rising seas if no Immediate Action is taken on the climate.
" As people of Faith we have a spiritual duty of care to those who are less fortunate than us, so we have been using this walk to raise money for activists in financially disadvantaged countries that are already impacted, to empower them to join this conversation themselves. "
Up to 30,000 people will descend on Scotland's largest city over a two-week period.
Police Scotland Chief Constable Iain Livingstone, Scotland's most senior Police Officer , said his Force would respond " swiftly and robustly" to protesters who tried to disrupt The Summit .

Andrew Darnton, an Ocean Rebellion activist and Climate Change researcher, told BBC Radio's programme his group had arrived in Glasgow early to get media coverage before The Summit began, and had been warmly welcomed by The People of Glasgow.
They use " striking visual performances" such as setting fire to their boats or pools of dead mermaids, to convey their message about blue Carbon - how the seas store Carbon .
" We Are bringing people news about The State of the seas and the degradation of the oceans and pointing out how important that is in relation to getting any kind of meaningful progress on cutting Carbon , " Mr Darnton said. " You can't do that without the seas. "
He added: " We'd like people simply to understand that you won't fix the climate crisis without attending to The Ocean .
" Bottom trawling of The Ocean , stirring up The Ocean bed, produces more Carbon in a year that the whole of aviation, the whole of flying, because the seas Lock Up so much Carbon for us. They provide most of our breathable oxygen. "
The COP26 global climate summit in Glasgow in November is seen as crucial if Climate Change is to be brought under control. Almost 200 countries are being asked for their plans to cut emissions, and it could lead to major changes to our everyday Lives .
