COP26: Activists deflate tyres on ‘luxury’ cars in Glasgow
Climate activists say they have deflated tyres on “luxury” vehicles parked in Glasgow, to raise awareness of carbon emissions during COP26.

A number of SUVs in the city’s upmarket West End were left with flyers that branded them a “climate violation”.
Police Scotland said it was aware of the incidents and it had upped patrols in the area.
Thousands of campaigners travelled to Glasgow in recent weeks for the UN climate summit, which ends on Friday.
Pharmacist Jamie MacConnacher discovered the two front tyres of his Land Rover had been flattened on Thursday morning.
He told BBC Radio Scotland’s Drivetime programme that several other cars in the area had been targeted.
He said: “I don’t think targeting individuals that have these vehicles is the right way to do it. They don’t know what the reason for somebody having that car is.”
He added: “I understand that there is a need for change, I’m totally for that. I would have an electric car but it’s the logistics in the west end of Glasgow.
“There’s nowhere to charge outside your flat so it just doesn’t work for me.”
A flyer left on Mr MacConnacher’s vehicle said it was “driving the climate breakdown”, particularly in poor countries.
The activist group Tyred of SUVs later claimed responsibility, saying they had deflated tyres of around 60 vehicles in the “rich neighbourhood”.
