Tough week to be a climate change denier | Sheneman - nj.com
Let’s take a moment to appreciate the dedication of the climate change deniers in 2024.
If during this age of record-high temperatures, evaporating lakes and wildfires that turn the sky orange you can still maintain the notion that climate change is a hoax, I salute you. Double kudos to the free thinkers who think offshore wind and electric vehicles are for betas: Your dedication to a political ideology -- when evidence to the contrary is slowly eroding our beaches -- Is impressive.

Talks are well underway in preparation for the next major international meeting on climate change, 28th Conference of the Parties (COP28), scheduled to begin Nov. 30 in the United Arab Emirates.
Much like last year’s COP27, finances — specifically, aid to developing nations — will be at the center of conference deliberations.
The conference faces an even greater sense of urgency brought on by the Sept. 8, 2023, release of the first global stocktake, which calls for accelerated action to meet the goals set in the 2015 Paris Climate Agreement (COP21).
