Halloween has been and gone, but the UN\u2019s climate change conference (COP26) is only just starting. This important conference is seen as an important chance for the world to commit to reducing our greenhouse gas emissions in order to tackle climate change.<\/p>\n

Certainly, many of the images we are featuring in this month\u2019s gallery will have some kind of link to climate change, and our attempts to tackle this global problem. And then again, there are equally many images showing new technologies and projects that perhaps only add to our pollution problems.<\/p>\n

From grumpy robots to fallen stars, this is the month in science.<\/p>\n
