10,000 FLY IN FOR DOOMED UN CLIMATE TALKS

More than 10,000 people are flying to Marrakesh for a UN climate change conference despite officials admitting that they will make little or no progress on key issues.
The two-week meeting, which begins in the Moroccan city on Monday, was declared as the “conference of action”, where 195 countries were supposed to reveal how they will fulfil pledges made a year ago to cut their emissions. Instead, they are likely to agree to suspend talks until 2018.
Previous conferences have produced communiqués with grand titles named after their location, including last year’s Paris Agreement. A UK government source said: “Will there be a Marrakesh Something? There will have to be a decision that basically says we agree to reconvene with a date.”
However, delegates will be able to stay busy thanks to a Michelin guide to the conference supplied by the UN. It lists top hotels, “beauty and wellness spas”, as well as the best beaches.

The Sierra Club released a video Thursday afternoon showing people reading past Trump tweets about global warming after inhaling helium, giving them unnaturally high-pitched voices.
Many of the individuals who read the tweets end up breaking down in laughter, but the video ends with a more cryptic message.
“Denying climate change might sound funny,” reads a graphic, “but voting for a climate denier is not.”
