20 years ago today in the Iraq invasion my Kurdish translator Kamaran Abdurazaq Muhamed died when a US Navy plane dropped a 1,000 lb bomb on a group including my BBC team. Kamaran was 25. 17 others were killed, & all of us from the BBC were injured. The pilot wasn’t reprimanded.
BREAKING: @RBC is blocking entrance to Chief Na’moks and all land defender allies into the AGM, all of whom have proxy votes to be there. Racist, colonial, disgusting. The largest fossil fuel funders blocking the people who’s lands they invade. #LetThemIn#ShareholderShowdown

I’m at the pro-Trump protest put on by the NY Young Republicans Club. Not a joke, there are more reporters here than Trump supporters.
This was supposed to be the big one.
So given this dire news, surely we are well on our way to cutting our carbon emissions, no?
No.
The synthesis report is crystal clear: we are not doing nearly enough to avoid dangerous impacts, let alone achieve the targets of the Paris Agreement.
Every year, every new UN report, advances our understanding of climate change. The basic science, though, has been known for decades. This 1979 US gov't assessment found "a consensus that climate changes will result from man’s combustion of fossil fuels and changes in land use"
