<b>Big Oil, Big Lies and Big Al...</b><br>
Just Have a Think<br>
Sep 24, 2023<br>
World leaders just gathered at the UN in New York to discuss the
climate, ahead of the main COP 28 climate conference coming up in
November 2023. The president of that event is also the CEO of one of
the world's largest oil and gas producers. So how, in the name of
all things holy, can we possibly expect to make any progress there?
This video has a couple of suggestions.<br>

Sep 21, 2023<br>
The world has known about the threat posed by climate change for
decades now. Why has it taken so long to act, and what are the major
obstacles today? Former Vice President of the United States Al Gore
sits down at The New York Times Climate Forward event to discuss
what’s standing in the way of progress. This interview was with
David Gelles of The New York Times.<br>

In a blistering talk, Nobel Laureate Al Gore looks at the two main
obstacles to climate solutions and gives his view of how we might
actually solve the environmental crisis in time. You won't want to
miss his searing indictment of fossil fuel companies for walking
back their climate commitments -- and his call for a global rethink
of the roles of polluting industries in politics and finance.<br>

<b>American football season is getting hotter. Young players are
dying</b><br>
Maanvi Singh <br>
Sun 24 Sep 2023 <br>
Nearly a dozen US football players have died of heat in recent years
as teams reckon with training in a changing climate<br>
At the end of a pre-season football practice in late July, Myzelle
Law, a 19-year-old defensive lineman for MidAmerica Nazarene
University in Kansas, returned to the locker room, and began showing
signs of seizure. It was hot outside, but Law’s internal body
temperature had reached 108F (42.2C), his family said. He died about
a week later, of heat-related illness.<br>
<br>
Last summer, the same thing happened to the 17-year-old lineman
Phillip Laster Jr, a rising senior at Brandon high school in
Mississippi. In 2021, 16-year-old Drake Geiger, a player for Omaha
South high school in Nebraska, died after collapsing on a practice
field.<br>
They aren’t the only ones. Between 2018 and 2022, at least 11
football players in the US – at the student and professional level –
have died of heat stroke. And the number of young athletes diagnosed
with exertional heat illness has been increasing over the past
decade or so, as unprecedented, extreme heat butts up against
football season.<br>
<br>
This summer, the hottest on record in North America, teams across
the US have been forced to reckon with a changing climate. High
school and college teams in searing south-west states – where
temperatures rarely dropped below 110F (43.3C) this summer – escaped
to practise in the mountains, or by the coast. Teams took to
practising at dawn, before temperatures became unsafe. Friday night
games were held later in the evening, or pushed to the next
morning...<br>
- -<br>
Although very young athletes – at the elementary and middle school
level – are physically most prone to heat illness, it’s the teens
and young adults who are most at risk for exertional heat stroke,
studies have found, simply because they push past their bodies’
warning signs.<br>
<br>
“With these young adults, all they want to do is make the varsity
team, to come off the bench, to get recruited by the best college
teams,” said Murfree. “They want to make their coaches and parents
proud. And all that can be counterproductive if the body is being
overworked.”<br>
<br>
There’s an idea that young athletes are superhuman, or act like they
are, McNair said. “Jordan was 6ft5, he was 300lbs. He wore a size 16
shoe – but he was still 19 years old,” he said. “These are still
kids.”<br>

America’s property market</b><br>
Insurance is supposed to signal risk. Policymakers should let it<br>
</font><font face="Calibri">Sep 21st 2023<br>
<br>
For decades Americans have been moving to beautiful places that
are vulnerable to extreme weather. Florida, once a swampy
frontier, is now America’s third-most populous state. It is also
the state most often hit by hurricanes. By 2015, the Atlantic and
Gulf coasts boasted more than $13trn of real estate. Look West and
the story is similar. Homes are proliferating in the
wildland-urban interface, where nature and development anxiously
coexist and wildfire season seems never to end.<br>
</font>
<p><font face="Calibri">It is climate change that makes extreme
weather more common. But the financial cost of storms and fires
depends, more than anything else, on how many homes people
choose to build in risky places. After adjusting for inflation,
there have been more billion-dollar disasters so far in 2023
than any year since America’s National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration began keeping records. Losses as a proportion of
gdp have kept stable over the past four decades. But there are
big local exceptions: last year hurricane damage cost Florida
between 7.5% and 10% of the state’s gdp....</font><font
