Climate Change Conference in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt, known as COP27, and it quickly faced criticism. At this contentious summit, developing countries have lambasted wealthy nations for not helping to rescue them from the worst impacts of a warming planet.

I am truly going to hell, because I looked at the obituary to see if he was cremated.

 

Goin' great!

 

I ran a marathon yesterday in 75-degree heat and 80-percent humidity. In November. With no shade to found on the entire course. Sheer torture.

And now, 15 hours after I finished, it’s like 40 degrees outside.
