Climate change does not lend itself to easy documentation.
Like nature itself, it can move slowly. Change can come in increments, 
and it is not always clear what to make of it.

/[  President spoke at COP27 ]/
*Biden COP27 Pledges Called a 'Band-Aid on Damage That Threatens Our 
Collective Future'*
"If President Biden is serious about the U.S. doing its part to 'avert 
climate hell,' he would deliver a plan to end the era of fossil fuels," 
said one campaigner.

Campaigners pushed back Friday after U.S. President Joe Biden touted his 
administration's "bold agenda" to tackle the climate emergency during a 
speech at the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Egypt.

"Disturbingly, Biden was silent on loss and damage, the most critical 
issue at COP27."
Addressing COP27 attendees at the Tonino Lamborghini International 
Convention Center Sharm el-Sheikh, Biden asserted that his 
administration is "meeting the climate crisis with urgency and 
determination" in service of "a cleaner, healthier, and safer planet for 
us all."

"We're racing forward to do our part to prevent climate hell," the 
president of the world's second-worst greenhouse gas emitter claimed. 
"We're not ignoring harbingers that are already here."

As Common Dreams reported earlier Friday, green groups welcomed Biden's 
announcement of stronger regulations, meant to curb methane pollution 
resulting from oil and gas production. However, activists stressed that 
the president must do substantially more to combat the planetary emergency.

"If President Biden is serious about the U.S. doing its part to 'avert 
climate hell,' he would deliver a plan to end the era of fossil fuels," 
Greenpeace USA chief program officer Tefere Gebre said in a statement. 
"The Biden administration has failed to deliver on their commitment to 
phase out oil and gas lease sales on public lands and water and instead 
continues to sacrifice the health and safety of frontline communities. 
The commitments made today are a Band-Aid on damage that threatens our 
collective future."...
-- 
"Achieving any sort of climate justice requires the United States and 
the world's biggest polluters to kickstart the phaseout of fossil fuels 
and invest in the just transition of fossil fuel workers and 
communities," argued Gebre. "The climate crisis is a shared global 
reality and yet the U.S—one of the world's largest polluters, producers, 
and exporters of fossil fuels—has failed to complete existing funding 
investments for vulnerable countries."

*Saint-Louis is being swallowed by the sea. Residents are bracing for a 
new reality*
November 11, 2022
Heard on All Things Considered
"God has pushed the sea up to our houses," says Mamadou Thiam. "Climate 
change destroyed many houses."

Thiam is one of thousands who now live in an internally-displaced people 
(IDP) camp in Saint-Louis, Senegal after they were forced to leave their 
homes on the coast because of climate-induced erosion.

The problem is as simple as it is devastating: the Atlantic Ocean is 
expanding into Senegal, and Saint-Louis is ground zero. Every year, a 
little bit more land is lost to the sea.

High tides and strong currents tore down walls and rendered Thiam's home 
unlivable. Life in the IDP camp is his new reality, and experts warn it 
could be the future of tens of thousands of other people in Saint-Louis.

rapidly warming Arctic region.

With the COP27 summit kicking off in Egypt this week, the Office star 
has said he will now be known as Rainnfall Heat Wave Extreme Winter Wilson.

“With the help of my scientist friends at Arctic Basecamp, I’ve changed 
my name to Rainnfall Heat Wave Extreme Winter Wilson. This is not a 
joke, I’m as serious as the melting Arctic, which amplifies global risks 
including extreme weather events around the globe,” said Wilson...

November 12, 2012: Powerful conservative activist Grover Norquist is 
quoted in the National Journal as saying that a federal revenue-neutral 
carbon tax would not violate the Republican Party's "no new taxes" 
position. After being viciously criticized by representatives from Koch 
Industries, Norquist abruptly flip-flops.
