“We say no more ‘blah blah blah,’” said Thunberg. “No more exploitation of people and the planet.” Thunberg led the crowd in a chant of “What do we want? Climate Justice! When do we want it? Now!”

GLASGOW, Scotland — The security perimeter around the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Glasgow, known as COP26, is ironclad. It’s surrounded by metal gates, with each point of entry guarded by armed police in yellow vests, and registered attendees must show proof of a negative COVID-19 test taken that day and a government-issued ID card, in addition to their credentials to share space with dignitaries and world leaders.

“That is not leadership. This is leadership!” Thunberg proclaimed, referring to the scruffy activists waving placards with slogans like “Planet over profit” and “This is a climate emergency.” A group came dressed as faceless empty suits holding signs saying “Blah blah blah.” Each of them wore a black suit, a plain white masquerade mask and a name card for one of the top government officials attending COP26, including Biden, U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson and Chinese Premier Li Keqiang.

Activists from Extinction Rebellion and Fridays for Future march for climate justice in Glasgow, Scotland, during the U.N. Climate Change Conference on Monday.
