<b>COP26: Arnold Schwarzenegger angered by world leaders' climate
policies</b><br>
<b>Arnold Schwarzenegger says leaders who claim combating climate
change hurts the economy are "stupid or liars".</b><br>
BBC Radio - Oct 28, 2021<br>
Ahead of the COP26 climate summit, the former governor of California
told the BBC that cutting carbon emissions will benefit global
economies.<br>
<br>
The Terminator actor said reducing meat intake does not have to mean
sacrificing something - instead cutting his own has led him to be
healthier.<br>
<br>
He also took aim at pollution caused by international trade.<br>
<br>
In a wide-ranging interview for BBC Radio 4's 39 Ways to Save the
Planet series, Mr Schwarzenegger claimed California's continued
economic success and prolific job creation proves carbon dioxide
reduction and boosting wealth go hand in hand.<br>
<br>
"They are liars, they are stupid. Or they don't know how to do it,
because we figured how to do it and it's all about having the balls
to do it," he argued.<br>

<i>[ The Pope speaks through the BBC]</i><br>
<b>Pope urges 'radical' climate response in exclusive BBC message</b><br>
BBC Rome - -Oct-28-2021<br>
<b>In a message recorded exclusively for the BBC, Pope Francis has
called on world leaders meeting next week at the UN Climate
conference in Glasgow to provide "effective responses" to the
environment emergency and offer "concrete hope" to future
generations.</b><br>
<br>
Speaking from the Vatican for BBC Radio 4's Thought for the Day, the
Pope talked of crises including the Covid-19 pandemic, climate
change and economic difficulties, and urged the world to respond to
them with vision and radical decisions, so as not to "waste
opportunities" that the current challenges present.<br>
<br>
"We can confront these crises by retreating into isolationism,
protectionism and exploitation," the pontiff said, "or we can see in
them a real chance for change."<br>
<br>
He evoked the need for "a renewed sense of shared responsibility for
our world", adding that "each of us - whoever and wherever we may be
- can play our own part in changing our collective response to the
unprecedented threat of climate change and the degradation of our
common home."<br>
<br>
The Pontiff is due to meet US President Joe Biden at the Vatican
later. Mr Biden's domestic climate policies remain on hold after his
party postponed a vote on his spending plans.<br>

<b>World is failing to make changes needed to avoid climate
breakdown, report finds</b><br>
Pace of emissions reductions must be increased significantly to keep
global heating to 1.5C<br>
- -<br>
Across 40 different areas spanning the power sector, heavy industry,
agriculture, transportation, finance and technology, not one is
changing quickly enough to avoid 1.5C in global heating beyond
pre-industrial times, a critical target of the Paris climate
agreement, according to the new Systems Change Lab report.<br>
<br>
No indicators are on track to meet targets necessary to limit
warming to 1.5C by 2030<br>
- -<br>
Should the world breach 1.5C in global heating, the planet will be
hit by an increasing frequency of deadly heatwaves, ruinous storms,
disastrous flooding and crop failures, wiping trillions of dollars
from economic activity and forcing the displacement of millions of
people. António Guterres, secretary general of the UN, has warned
the world is risking a “hellish future” through its lack of urgency
to confront the crisis.<br>
<br>
“We have the technology for the majority of these areas to
decarbonize,” said Bill Hare, chief executive of Climate Analytics,
an organization that provided input to the new report. “What we need
is political will, and for governments to catch up with the
opportunity this transition will bring for their economies.”<br>

<i>[ Here is the report from the World Resources Institute ]</i><br>
<b>State of Climate Action 2021: Systems Transformations Required to
Limit Global Warming to 1.5°C</b><br>
Transformations must occur across every sector at far faster pace
than recent trends to keep the window open to achieve the Paris
Agreement’s goal to limit global warming to 1.5°C, according to this
Systems Change Lab report authored by the UN High-Level Climate
Champions, Climate Action Tracker, ClimateWorks Foundation, Bezos
Earth Fund and World Resources Institute.<br>
Topic ECONOMICS - October 28, 2021 - 249 Pages<br>
<b>Key Findings</b><br>
<blockquote>This decade is our make-or-break opportunity to limit
warming to 1.5°C and steer the world toward a net-zero future...<br>
<br>
The decisions made today will determine the severity of climate
change impacts that will affect us all for decades to come...<br>
<br>
We’re not starting from a standstill—recent years have witnessed
notable progress, despite relatively low levels of overall
ambition and investments...<br>
<br>
But much more could be achieved if all decision-makers around the
world gave climate action the high priority it is due...<br>
<br>
Accelerating these transformations to mitigate climate change also
offers an opportunity to create a more equal world...<br>
</blockquote>
To reach a net-zero future, we must ignite fundamental change across
nearly all systems, from how we move around the world and build
cities to how we grow food and power industry. These systemwide
transitions will depend on the massive scale-up of finance,
technology, and capacity building for countries that need support.<br>

<i>[ terms and definitions ] </i><br>
<b>Climate jargon can feel overwhelming. Illustration by Dennis
Lan/USC, CC BY-ND</b><br>
A quick guide to climate change jargon – what experts mean by
mitigation, carbon neutral and 6 other key terms<br>
October 26, 2021...<br>
- -<br>
With the help of the United Nations Foundation, we chose eight terms
from reports written by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate
Change.<br>
<br>
Here’s a guide that may help you to follow the news about climate
change. The explanation of each term starts with the technical
definition from the IPCC. The text that follows puts it into plain
language.<br>
<br>
<b>1. Mitigation</b><br>
IPCC definition: Mitigation (of climate change): a human
intervention to reduce emissions or enhance the sinks of greenhouse
gases.<br>
<b>Translation: Stopping climate change from getting worse.</b><br>
<br>
When people talk about “mitigation” they often focus on fossil fuels
– coal, oil and natural gas – used to make electricity and run cars,
buses and planes. Fossil fuels produce greenhouse gases, including
carbon dioxide. When these gases are released, they linger in the
atmosphere. They then trap heat and warm the planet.<br>
<br>
Some ways to mitigate climate change include using solar and wind
power instead of coal-fired power plants; making buildings,
appliances and vehicles more energy efficient so they use less
electricity and fuel; and designing cities so people have to drive
less. Protecting forests and planting trees also help because trees
absorb greenhouse gases from the atmosphere and lock them away.<br>
<br>
<b>2. Adaptation</b><br>
IPCC definition: In human systems, the process of adjustment to
actual or expected climate and its effects, in order to moderate
harm or exploit beneficial opportunities. In natural systems, the
process of adjustment to actual climate and its effects; human
intervention may facilitate adjustment to expected climate and its
effects.<br>
<b>Translation: Making changes to live with the impacts of climate
change.</b><br>
<br>
Climate change is already happening. Heat waves, wildfires and
floods are getting worse. People will have to find ways to live with
these threats. Los Angeles, for example, is planting trees to help
people stay cooler. Coastal cities like Miami may need sea walls to
protect against floods. More “adaptation” actions will be needed as
climate change gets worse.<br>
<br>
<b>3. Carbon dioxide removal</b><br>
IPCC definition: Carbon dioxide removal methods refer to processes
that remove CO2 from the atmosphere by either increasing biological
sinks of CO2 or using chemical processes to directly bind CO2. CDR
is classified as a special type of mitigation.<br>
<b>Translation: Taking carbon dioxide out of the air.</b><br>
<br>
The amount of carbon dioxide in the air has been increasing for many
years. In 2019, there was 50% more more of it than in the late
1700s. Planting trees and restoring grasslands can remove carbon
dioxide from the air. There are also carbon dioxide removal
technologies that store it underground or in concrete, but these are
new and not widely used.<br>
<br>
<b>4. Carbon neutral</b><br>
IPCC definition: Carbon neutrality is achieved when anthropogenic
CO2 emissions are balanced globally by anthropogenic carbon dioxide
removals over a specified period. Carbon neutrality is also referred
to as net-zero carbon dioxide emission.<br>
<b>Translation: Adding no net carbon dioxide into the air. This does
not have to mean that you can’t add any carbon dioxide. It means
that if you do add carbon dioxide into the air you take out the
same amount.</b><b><br>
</b><br>
The IPCC warns that the world needs to be carbon neutral by 2050 to
avoid a serious climate crisis. This means using both “mitigation”
to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide added to the air and “carbon
dioxide removal” to take carbon dioxide out of the air.<br>
<b><br>
</b><b>5. Tipping point</b><br>
IPCC definition: A level of change in system properties beyond which
a system reorganizes, often abruptly, and does not return to the
initial state even if the drivers of the change are abated. For the
climate system, it refers to a critical threshold when global or
regional climate changes from one stable state to another stable
state.<br>
<b>Translation: When it is too late to stop effects of climate
change.</b><br>
<br>
One of the most talked-about tipping points involves the collapse of
the West Antarctic ice sheet. Some research suggests it may have
already started happening. West Antarctica alone holds enough ice to
raise sea levels worldwide by about 11 feet (3.3 meters). If all
glaciers and ice caps melt, sea levels will end up rising about 230
feet (70 meters).<br>
<br>
<b>6. Unprecedented transition</b><br>
IPCC definition for “transition”: The process of changing from one
state or condition to another in a given period of time. Transition
can be in individuals, firms, cities, regions and nations and can be
based on incremental or transformative change.<br>
<b>Translation: Making big changes together to stop climate change –
in a way that has not been seen before.</b><br>
<br>
In 2015, countries around the world agreed to try to keep the planet
from warming more than 1.5 degrees Celsius (2.7 F). Among the
biggest sources of global warming are coal-fired power plants.
Quickly shifting the world to renewable energy, such as wind and
solar power, would be an unprecedented transition. Without big
changes, climate change could make the world unlivable.<br>
<br>
<b>7. Sustainable development</b><br>
IPCC definition: Development that meets the needs of the present
without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their
own needs and balances social, economic and environmental concerns.<br>
<b>Translation: Living in a way that is good for people alive today
and for people in the future.</b><br>
<br>
The United Nations has shared “sustainable development goals.” These
goals aim to help countries grow in ways that are healthy for both
people and the environment. Producing more carbon dioxide than the
planet can manage is an example of unsustainable development that’s
causing climate change.<br>
<br>
<b>8. Abrupt change</b><br>
IPCC definition: Abrupt climate change refers to a large-scale
change in the climate system that takes place over a few decades or
less, persists (or is anticipated to persist) for at least a few
decades and causes substantial disruptions in human and natural
systems.<br>
<b>Translation: A change in climate that happens much faster than it
normally would.</b><br>
<br>
Our world is changing quickly as a result of climate change.
Wildfires are raging in parts of the Western U.S. that were once too
wet to burn. Coral reefs are dying as the ocean is getting warmer.
These changes would not have happened so quickly – or at all – were
it not for climate change...<br>

<b>Research Protections in State Open Records Laws:</b><b> An
Analysis and Ranking</b><br>
The breadth and strength of state open records laws and the federal
equivalent Freedom of Information<br>
Act (FOIA) have made them powerful tools, but have also made them
vulnerable to misuse and abuse by<br>
groups who try to harass researchers and stifle scientific research
they dislike.<br>
Now in its third edition, this report continues to illustrate the
ways in which open records laws may be<br>
used, at best, to promote valid public policy goals or, at worst, as
a weapon against publicly-funded<br>
research.<br>
Open records laws seek to promote government transparency by
allowing citizens to request copies of<br>
administrative records. Any citizen (in fact, in many states, any
person) can file a request with a<br>
government entity for copies of government documents, and the
government must either produce the<br>
information or explain why it is exempt from production (for
example, for national security purposes).<br>
These laws, some:mes called “sunshine laws,” have provided important
opportunities for investigative<br>
journalists, watchdog groups, and taxpayers seeking to understand
more about how their government<br>
works..<br>

<font size="+1"><b>On this day in the history of global warming
October 29,</b></font><br>
October 29, 2003: The New York Times reports:<br>
"Motivated by environmental and economic concerns, states have
become the driving force in efforts to combat global warming even as
mandatory programs on the federal level have largely stalled."
<blockquote><b>The Warming Is Global but the Legislating, in the
U.S., Is All Local</b><br>
By Jennifer 8. Lee - Oct. 29, 2003<br>
Motivated by environmental and economic concerns, states have
become the driving force in efforts to combat global warming even
as mandatory programs on the federal level have largely stalled.<br>
<br>
At least half of the states are addressing global warming, whether
through legislation, lawsuits against the Bush administration or
programs initiated by governors.<br>
<br>
In the last three years, state legislatures have passed at least
29 bills, usually with bipartisan support. The most contentious is
California's 2002 law to set strict limits for new cars on
emissions of carbon dioxide, the gas that scientists say has the
greatest role in global warming.<br>
<br>
While few of the state laws will have as much impact as
California's, they are not merely symbolic. In addition to caps on
emissions of gases like carbon dioxide that can cause the
atmosphere to heat up like a greenhouse, they include registries
to track such emissions, efforts to diversify fuel sources and the
use of crops to capture carbon dioxide by taking it out of the
atmosphere and into the ground.<br>
Aside from their practical effects, supporters say, these efforts
will put pressure on Congress and the administration to enact
federal legislation, if only to bring order to a patchwork of
state laws.<br>
<br>
States are moving ahead in large part to fill the vacuum that has
been left by the federal government, said David Danner, the energy
adviser for Gov. Gary Locke of Washington.<br>
<br>
''We hope to see the problem addressed at the federal level,'' Mr.
Danner said, ''but we're not waiting around.''<br>
<br>
There are some initiatives in Congress, but for the moment even
their backers acknowledge that they are doomed, given strong
opposition from industry, the Bush administration -- which favors
voluntary controls -- and most Congressional Republicans.<br>
<br>
This week, the Senate is scheduled to vote on a proposal to create
a national regulatory structure for carbon dioxide. This would be
the first vote for either house on a measure to restrict the gas.<br>
The proposal's primary sponsors, Senator John McCain, Republican
of Arizona, and Senator Joseph I. Lieberman, Democrat of
Connecticut, see it mainly as a way to force senators to take a
position on the issue, given the measure's slim prospects.<br>
<br>
States are acting partly because of predictions that global
warming could damage local economies by harming agriculture,
eroding shorelines and hurting tourism.<br>
<br>
''We're already seeing things which may be linked to global
warming here in the state,'' Mr. Danner said. ''We have low
snowpack, increased forest fire danger.''<br>
<br>
Environmental groups and officials in state governments say that
energy initiatives are easier to move forward on the local level
because they span constituencies -- industrial and service
sectors, Democrat and Republican, urban and rural.<br>
<br>
While the coal, oil and automobile industries have big lobbies in
Washington, the industry presence is diluted on the state level.
Environmental groups say this was crucial to winning a legislative
battle over automobile emissions in California, where the
automobile industry did not have a long history of large campaign
donations and instead had to rely on a six-month advertising
campaign to make its case.<br>
<br>
Local businesses are also interested in policy decisions because
of concerns about long-term energy costs, said Christopher James,
director of air planning and standards for the Connecticut
Department of Environmental Protection. As a result, environmental
groups are shifting their efforts to focus outside Washington.<br>
<br>
Five years ago the assumption was that the climate treaty known as
the Kyoto Protocol was the only effort in town, said Rhys Roth,
the executive director of Climate Solutions, which works on global
warming issues in the Pacific Northwest states. But since
President Bush rejected the Kyoto pact in 2001, local groups have
been emerging on the regional, state and municipal levels.<br>
The Climate Action Network, a worldwide conglomeration of
nongovernment organizations working on global warming, doubled its
membership of state and local groups in the last two years.<br>
<br>
The burst of activity is not limited to the states with a
traditional environmental bent.<br>
<br>
At least 15 states, including Texas and Nevada, are forcing their
state electric utilities to diversify beyond coal and oil to
energy sources like wind and solar power.<br>
<br>
Even rural states are linking their agricultural practices to
global warming. Nebraska, Oklahoma and Wyoming have all passed
initiatives in anticipation of future greenhouse-gas emission
trading, hoping they can capitalize on their forests and crops to
capture carbon dioxide during photosynthesis.<br>
<br>
Cities are also adopting new energy policies. San Franciscans
approved a $100 million bond initiative in 2001 to pay for solar
panels for municipal buildings, including the San Francisco
convention center.<br>
<br>
The rising level of state activity is causing concern among those
who oppose carbon dioxide regulation.<br>
<br>
''I believe the states are being used to force a federal
mandate,'' said Sandy Liddy Bourne, who does research on global
warming for the American Legislative Exchange Council, a group
contending that carbon dioxide should not be regulated because it
is not a pollutant. ''Rarely do you see so many bills in one
subject area introduced across the country.''<br>
<br>
The council started tracking state legislation, which they call
son-of-Kyoto bills, weekly after they noticed a significant rise
in greenhouse-gas-related legislation two years ago. This year,
the council says, 24 states have introduced 90 bills that would
build frameworks for regulating carbon dioxide. Sixty-six such
bills were introduced in all of 2001 and 2002.<br>
Some of the activity has graduated to a regional level. Last
summer, Gov. George E. Pataki of New York invited 10 Northeastern
states to set up a regional trading network where power plants
could buy and sell carbon dioxide credits in an effort to lower
overall emissions. In 2001, six New England states entered into an
agreement with Canadian provinces to cap overall emissions by
2010. Last month, California, Washington and Oregon announced that
they would start looking at shared strategies to address global
warming.<br>
<br>
To be sure, some states have decided not to embrace policies to
combat global warming. Six -- Alabama, Illinois, Kentucky,
Oklahoma, West Virginia and Wyoming -- have explicitly passed laws
against any mandatory reductions in greenhouse gas emissions.<br>
<br>
''My concern,'' said Ms. Bourne, ''is that members of industry and
environment groups will go to the federal government to say:
'There is a patchwork quilt of greenhouse-gas regulations across
the country. We cannot deal with the 50 monkeys. We must have one
800-pound gorilla. Please give us a federal mandate.' '' Indeed,
some environmentalists say this is precisely their strategy.<br>
<br>
States developed their own air toxics pollution programs in the
1980's, which resulted in different regulations and standards
across the country. Industry groups, including the American
Chemistry Council, eventually lobbied Congress for federal
standards, which were incorporated into the 1990 Clean Air Act
amendments.<br>
<br>
A number of states are trying to compel the federal government to
move sooner rather than later. On Thursday, 12 states, including
New York, with its Republican governor, and three cities sued the
Environmental Protection Agency for its recent decision not to
regulate greenhouse-gas pollutants under the Clean Air Act, a
reversal of the agency's previous stance under the Clinton
administration.<br>
<br>
''Global warming cannot be solely addressed at the state level,''
said Tom Reilly, the Massachusetts attorney general. ''It's a
problem that requires a federal approach.''<br>
