Tears for a COP out: Climate conference president Alok Sharma chokes up and tells delegates he is 'deeply sorry' as he signs 'watered down' green deal after China and India force a late change over coal

 

World leaders at the Cop26 climate change summit have reached a deal today

There is fury from EU nations due to last-minute wording changes over coal

The Glasgow Pact was watered down after pressure from India and China

Alok Sharma 'fought back tears' and said he was 'deeply sorry' for the change

Talks overran due to disputes over finance, fossil fuels and cutting emissions

 

A new global climate deal has been agreed at Cop26 in Glasgow but Britain's president of the conference Alok Sharma 'fought back tears' as he apologised for a last-minute change on the wording about coal.

 

Leaders at the Cop26 climate change summit reached a deal on Saturday after talks overran by more than 24 hours, but it prompted fury after China, whose president did not attend, and India forced a last-minute change over the language about coal.

 

The Glasgow Pact was watered down at the last minute with the wording of unabated coal - the burning of coal without climate change mitigating technology - changed from 'phase out' to 'phase down', leading to angry responses from European and vulnerable countries.

 

Britain's president of the conference Alok Sharma 'fought back tears' on Saturday as he told delegates he was 'deeply sorry' for how the 'process' unfolded as he brought down the gavel to signal an agreement had been passed.

 

His voice broke with emotion after hearing from vulnerable nations, which expressed their anger over the changes to the text, as he said: 'May I just say to all delegates I apologise for the way this process has unfolded and I am deeply sorry.'

 

'I also understand the deep disappointment but I think as you have noted, it's also vital that we protect this package.'

 

Despite fierce disagreements over the wording of the deal, it is still a progressive agreement as it is the first UN climate agreement that has made an explicit mention of fossil fuels.

 

The overall deal has seen nearly 200 countries agree to keep the goal of limiting global warming to 1.5C above pre-industrial levels 'alive' or within reach.

 

The pact requests countries revisit and strengthen their 2030 national climate action targets 'as necessary to align with the Paris Agreement temperature goal by the end of 2022, taking into account different national circumstances'.

 

World leaders and campaigners shared their disappointment at the changes made in the agreement, with some even deeming the deal as 'weak', while others insisted that the summit made important progress for global warming.

 

But many world leaders expressed their optimism following the conference, arguing that the green deal is an important step in tackling the climate crisis and will make a difference in the coming years.

Biden Names Former New Orleans Mayor Mitch Landrieu to Oversee Implementation of Infrastructure Bill

 

Joe Biden named the corrupt former New Orleans Mayor to oversee the implementation of the newly passed $1 trillion infrastructure bill.

 

Mitch Landrieu is a corrupt politician from the Democrat swamp in New Orleans.

 

“In this role, Landrieu will oversee the most significant and comprehensive investments in American infrastructure in generations—work that independent experts verify will create millions of high-paying, union jobs while boosting our economic competitiveness in the world, strengthening our supply chains, and acting against inflation for the long term,” the White House said.

 

Biden is scheduled to sign the infrastructure bill on Monday.

 

Fox News reported:

 

President Biden named former New Orleans Mayor Mitch Landrieu as senior adviser and infrastructure coordinator on the $1 trillion infrastructure bill, the White House confirmed Sunday.

 

Landrieu, who led New Orleans from 2010 to 2018, was also a lieutenant governor for Louisiana. The White House said they chose him because of his experience leading the city, as well as for his relationships with leaders at both state and municipal levels.

 

Landrieu will be helping to supervise and coordinate the infrastructure bill by working through the National Economic Council.

“UNSPEAKABLE.” 2 Arkansas men admit to sex trafficking 6-year-old girl

 

LITTLE ROCK – Two Little Rock men have pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit sex trafficking of a 6-year-old child. Demarcus George, 27, entered his guilty plea Wednesday afternoon. George joins his codefendant, Mario Waters, 33, who pleaded guilty last week.

 

The guilty pleas effectively cancel George and Waters’ upcoming jury trial, which was scheduled to begin on November 15.

 

In February 2018, a 6-year-old child was taken to Arkansas Children’s Hospital due to symptoms that were later determined to be caused by several sexually transmitted diseases. The child was interviewed by an FBI forensic interviewer and disclosed that a man, later determined to be Demarcus George, had raped her. The child also disclosed that another man, later determined to be Mario Waters, had also raped her. The child told interviewers that the rape occurred in a hotel room with a curtain in the middle of the room, and she described a picture hanging on the wall in the hotel room.

 

Law enforcement was able to locate a hotel in Little Rock that matched the description provided by the minor, including the picture on the wall and the curtain in the room. Financial records from the hotel showed that the minor’s mother had rented a room at the hotel in March 2018 and paid with a credit card. The child has since been removed from the mother’s custody.

 

Doctors at Arkansas Children’s Hospital determined that it was unlikely the child had obtained each sexually transmitted disease from the same offender and that there were likely multiple offenders. Officers obtained search warrants for George and Waters’ blood and urine. Results indicated that George and Waters tested positive for sexually transmitted diseases that the minor had contracted. Both George and Waters admitted in court that they had sexual contact with the minor and were involved in trafficking her with others.

 

“The unspeakable crimes committed against this child remind us how vitally important it is to have law enforcement officers willing to investigate and put a stop to these horrific actions,” stated Acting United States Attorney Jonathan D. Ross. “These guilty pleas will spare the young victim from having to relive her experience on the witness stand at a trial. Our law enforcement partners work hard every day to protect children from this abuse, and our office will continue to aggressively pursue those who commit these deplorable crimes.”

19 arrested in large brawl at Soroka hospital in Beersheba

 

19 people have been arrested over a massive brawl which broke out at Soroka Medical Center in Beersheba on Sunday.

 

A mass brawl broke out on Sunday night between the Talalka and Alexasi families at Soroka Medical Center in Beersheba, during which gunfire was heard outside the gates of the hospital. Four were injured and required medical treatment, two were injured by stab wounds and two were injured by hits. All the injured are in mild condition and were transferred for treatment. After about an hour, order was returned to the area.

 

Young people were seen throwing stones and hitting each other, near a municipal security vehicle. Police forces are working at the scene to restore order, arrested 19 suspects and opened an investigation into the incident. The commander of the Beersheba police station, Tiran Yehud, stated: "We take the incident of violence in a hospital seriously and the investigation will be serious as well."

 

Dr. Shlomi Kodesh, director of Soroka Medical Center, said that "we condemn and are concerned about this showing of severe violence that has taken place in the area of the medical center. This crosses a red line and we demand that vigorous actions be taken to maintain peace in the hospital and for its staff. "

Shimon Tuval, deputy mayor of Beersheba stated that "What's going on here is madness. Not only did we lose Beersheba, we lost the whole country. Shots in a hospital are a red line that cannot be crossed."

 

Pini Badash, head of the Omar local council, warned that "shooting in hospitals is the peak of the lack of governance in the Negev. We must recover and fast."

 

The Negev Rescue Committee stated that "another line has been crossed in the framework of criminal terrorism. The residents of the city of Beersheba are hostage to terrorism that washes over Ben-Gurion's vision. Shooting inside a humanitarian facility crosses a red line."
