"Despite Lack of Global Warming" It appears that we've had no warming since 2014. We'll find out in a few weeks. "UN Sure Humanity Is to Blame" So is Pope San Francisco. He'll be giving a sermon to his billion followers in 3 weeks. Tracing the Roots of Pope Francis’s Climate Plans for 2015 By Andrew C. Revkin December 31, 2014 5:39 pm Scientists who participated in a Vatican meeting on sustainable development in May met with Pope Francis.Credit Updates below \| One of the highlights of my year, perhaps my career, was being able to participate in “ Sustainable Humanity, Sustainable Nature: Our Responsibility,” a four-day Vatican workshop aimed at shaping strategies for human advancement that are attuned to the planet’s limits, organized by the Pontifical Academy of Sciences and Academy of Social Sciences last May. Now there are signs that the themes and conclusions developed in those sessions are helping to shape Pope Francis’s planned push for serious international commitments in 2015 to curb greenhouse gases and gird communities, particularly the poorest, against climate-related hazards. A first step will come in less than three weeks, when, during his visit to the Philippines, the pope is scheduled to have lunch with some survivors of the typhoon that devastated Tacloban in 2012. The scope of the human calamity there was as much a result of deep poverty and poorly governed urban growth as the ferocity of Typhoon Haiyan. dotearth.blogs.nytimes.com
