Op-Ed Bill McKibben: Hillary Clinton needs to take a stand on the
Dakota Access Pipeline</a><br>
<blockquote> <font size="-1">The Democratic platform is great, and
maybe there's a chance she'll pay attention to it...When native
protesters tried to get in the way, the company sicced guard
dogs on them...And not a peep from the woman who would be
president.....The people who've built Clinton's campaign war
chest and her personal fortune are the same people who paid for
the dogs that bit young native Americans last week...It's clear
that Clinton would like to run out the clock on this election;
she figures that Trump's obvious incompetence will guarantee her
victory. But sometimes things happen. The fight at Standing Rock
is a big damned thing. It's a Flint-in-the-making, and it's also
a chance to for once do right by the continent's oldest
inhabitants. Surely Hillary Clinton can rise to the occasion.
Can't she?</font><br>

federal regulators for approving permits for the Dakota Access
Pipeline that will move oil from North Dakota to Illinois....The
tribe filed the lawsuit Thursday against the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers, which issued permits for the project. The U.S. Fish
and Wildlife Service is also a defendant....The lawsuit, which
asks that the Corps-issued permits be vacated, says the
pipeline's route passes through the tribe's treaty lands. It
says construction activities in that area will "destroy sites of
enormous cultural importance," causing "injury" to the tribe on
a cultural, spiritual and historical level....The Corps did not
immediately return a call seeking comment Thursday evening...The
lawsuit was filed ahead of a federal judge's impending ruling on
a request by the Standing Rock Sioux to stop the four-state
pipeline.</div>

insurers in the U.S. and abroad – are far from the first attempt
to urge companies to be open with the public about the risks
they face from climate change....Yet those involved with
drafting them are calling them a "game changer."...In its
efforts to formulate the guidelines the task force is
considering the physical, liability and transition risks
associated with climate change, as well as what constitutes
effective financial disclosures across industries....Members of
the task force will meet next week in Paris to talk about their
work, including a presentation of Phase I of the report, which
was first released in March. That laid out the objectives for
the proposed work and fundamental principles of disclosure....In
November the final guidelines, to be outlined in Phase II, are
set to be presented to the FSB, and then they're expected to be
published in December.</div>

media bias is inflating American climate denial and polarization</a><br>
<blockquote> <font size="-1">New studies show that climate
polarization is on the rise in the US; WSJ climate coverage is
full of denial....A new study by a team of sociologists at
Oklahoma State University has found political polarization on
climate change is growing in the United States. Today's
Republicans are less likely than they were a decade ago to
accept that the effects of global warming have begun, that
humans are responsible, and that there is a scientific consensus
on these questions. Democrats and independents are slightly more
likely to answer these questions correctly today than a decade
ago....Climate change is now more polarizing in the US than
abortion or gay marriage. At the same time, climate denial has
become the norm among Republican policymakers, as they've grown
increasingly anti-environment. ...As the study notes: </font><font
size="-1">"What was once a modest tendency for Congressional
Republicans to be less pro-environmental than their Democratic
counterparts has become a chasm—with Republicans taking
near-unanimous anti-environmental stances on relevant
legislation in recent years, especially 2015."...But there's a
limit to what the President of the United States can do on his
or her own. US Congress still controls American climate policy,
or the lack thereof. As long as the conservative media continues
to misinform readers and breed a conservative culture of climate
denial, American efforts to tackle the threat of climate change
will be constrained, and the future of human society and of the
Republican Party will be endangered.</font><br>
