  • The headline for the Associated Press story on the U.N. climate summit in Dubai reads: “With Planet Earth running a fever … talks focused Sunday on the contagious effects on human health.”
  • The summit, which President Biden did not attend, began Thursday, and over the final nine days, participants will turn their attention to negotiations to push for more agreement on ways to cap carbon emissions at pre-industrial levels.
  • The fossil fuel industry, which includes companies like Exxon and Shell, has acknowledged its contribution to global warming and has made efforts to help in the effort to reduce carbon emissions, but critics have said it’s not enough.
