energy amendments on Friday. .. first draft of the platform, voted
on by the 15-member drafting committee, is now complete, though it
hasn’t been made publicly available. On July 8 and 9, in Orlando,
the full 187-member platform committee will meet and debate
further changes before approving and sending its draft on to the
party convention, to be held in Philadelphia the last week of
July.. ..Drama over the party platform is atypical. Usually the
document is just a quietly produced, platitudinous summation of
the presidential nominee’s policy vision. But if Sanders gets some
of the changes he’s still pushing for, this year’s platform could
look very different from the last one, adopted four years ago
under a moderate incumbent president with a mixed record on
environmental issues...<br>

the single most significant threat facing the future of humanity
on this planet. It is likely to wreak havoc on the economy,
including, most especially, on the stocks of companies that sell
hydrocarbon energy products. If large oil companies have
deliberately misinformed investors about their knowledge of
global warming, they may have committed serious commercial
fraud....Despite the efforts of ...companies to invoke First
Amendment protections for their contributions to public debate,
the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit found: "Of course
it is well settled that the First Amendment does not protect
fraud."...ExxonMobil and its supporters are now eliding the
essential difference between fraud and public debate. Raising
the revered flag of the First Amendment, they loudly object to
investigations recently announced by attorneys general of
several states into whether ExxonMobil has publicly
misrepresented what it knew about global warming....It is
grossly irresponsible to invoke the First Amendment in such
contexts. But we are witnessing an increasing tendency to use
the First Amendment to unravel ordinary business regulations.
This is heartbreaking at a time when we need a strong First
Amendment for more important democratic purposes than using a
constitutional noose to strangle basic economic regulation. <a

times as much carbon as the entire atmosphere. This means that
losing carbon from the soil can quicken the pace of human-caused
climate warming...A new paper, published today in Nature
Geoscience, finds this is already happening in the forests of the
German Alps. Soils there are losing carbon as summer temperatures
rise, ...The scientists also find that soils with a higher carbon
