Introducing glibc will break your core binaries. Updated core binaries require a newer kernel which breaks hardware drivers (like NVIDIA) that need your old kernel. This "vicious cycle" makes it impossible to use new glibc w/o breaking your system.

The only solution is to compile the unsupported drivers somehow for the new kernel. So far this is not possible.

If you try using GLIBC without updating its dependencies, you will get complaints of a version mismatch on its dependencies which go all the way down to the kernel, which is why it is not possible.

Your options are limited and it is not possible unless you use a virtual machine. But likely VM is not what you want because VMs do not have the advantage of talking to your hardware directly. They have some VM extensions for making that better but they only cover CPU and RAM, not the video/sound card, that is all emulated.

Summary

If you want to run something that needs newer hardware, there is just no way around that:

1. You cant use unsupported hardware on newer kernel, and therefore linker, and then GLIBC.

2. You can't use unsupported GLIBC on older kernel which relies on the new kernel features. If you try to do it by force (point to new compiled version of the new binaries) you will get an error that the linker/kernel versions are incorrect.

3. The only solution to this is if there was a way to update your hardware drivers. If that isn't your problem, then UPGRADE UBUNTU to the latest version. If that IS your problem, then you are out of luck.

4. Companies like NVIDIA and AMD drop video support after a few years and leave you up a creek with no paddle, stranded on an old OS unless you buy yet another video card (even if your current one is fast and does just fine, they do NOT care).

5. Sandboxing in flatpak still needs those libraries to be able to link with your kernel. Sandboxing only fixes dependencies that are above the base system level. HOWEVER, if any of those libraries were built against a binaries that recursively rely on newer core libraries, you will still be stuck and it will still not work, below is an example:

/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.34' not found
(required by /tmp/.mount_my2newapp.a9fz3/usr/bin/../../usr/lib/liblzma.so.5)

As you can see here, even though the appimage/flatpak/snap was sandboxed, it still needed these new libraries further down the dependency chain.

Building on Shalini's answer,

#!/bin/bash

SOFTWARE_NAME=$1
SOFTWARE_VERSION=$2

export DOWNLOAD_INSTALL_DIR=$SOFTWARE_NAME-$SOFTWARE_VERSION-download-install
if [ -f $DOWNLOAD_INSTALL_DIR ];
then
    rm -fr $DOWNLOAD_INSTALL_DIR
    echo "Remove $DOWNLOAD_INSTALL_DIR"
fi

mkdir $HOME/$DOWNLOAD_INSTALL_DIR/ && cd $HOME/$DOWNLOAD_INSTALL_DIR

echo "Current directory at $PWD"

export DOWNLOADED_TAR=$HOME/$DOWNLOAD_INSTALL_DIR/$SOFTWARE_NAME-$SOFTWARE_VERSION.tar.gz
if [ ! -f $DOWNLOADED_TAR ]; then
    wget https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/$SOFTWARE_NAME/$SOFTWARE_NAME-$SOFTWARE_VERSION.tar.gz -P $HOME/$DOWNLOAD_INSTALL_DIR
    echo "Software is downloaded: $SOFTWARE_NAME, version = $SOFTWARE_VERSION "
else
    echo "Software is ALREADY downloaded: $SOFTWARE_NAME, version = $SOFTWARE_VERSION at $DOWNLOADED_TAR"
fi
tar -xvzf $DOWNLOADED_TAR -C $HOME/$DOWNLOAD_INSTALL_DIR
mkdir $HOME/$DOWNLOAD_INSTALL_DIR/build
export SOURCE_DIR=$HOME/$DOWNLOAD_INSTALL_DIR/$SOFTWARE_NAME-$SOFTWARE_VERSION-install
mkdir $SOURCE_DIR
cd $HOME/$DOWNLOAD_INSTALL_DIR/build

make
make install

export SOFTWARE_PATH=$HOME/$DOWNLOAD_INSTALL_DIR/$SOFTWARE_NAME-$SOFTWARE_VERSION-install/bin/$SOFTWARE_NAME
if [ -f $SOFTWARE_PATH ]; then
    echo "Software is found: $SOFTWARE_NAME, version = $SOFTWARE_VERSION at $SOFTWARE_PATH"
    mv $SOFTWARE_PATH $GRAND_ROOT_BIN

You can use the script like so bash script-name.sh bison 3.8 for downloading GNU's bison with version number 3.8.

Answer from @Dolphin isn't complete as it produces error from make: Makeconfig:42: *** missing separator. Stop.

In my case, to I had to do following:

# Check GLIBC_2.29
ldd --version | head -n1

# Build GLIBC_2.29 from sources
sudo apt-get install gawk bison -y
wget -c https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/glibc/glibc-2.34.tar.gz
tar -zxvf glibc-2.34.tar.gz && cd glibc-2.34
mkdir glibc-build && cd glibc-build
../configure --prefix=/opt/glibc-2.34
make 
sudo make install

P.S. If you are trying to run ord just try building from sources, it's much simpler than upgrading ubuntu or recompiling GLIBC
