Reuters: The U.S. federal court that will weigh whether to block the Environmental Protection Agency's Clean Power Plan will not make a decision until after United Nations climate change talks conclude in mid-December, according to a court order issued on Thursday.

In the case of cod in the Gulf of Maine, those impacts could be happening here and now, according to new findings. The research, published on Thursday in Science, shows that waters in the region have recently warmed at an unprecedented rate. Fisheries management has not been able to keep up with the warming, resulting in cod stocks that are at just 3 to 4 percent of sustainable...

Climate Home: Climate pledges by Latin Americas major economies do not go far enough to hold warming below 2C, analysts warned on Thursday. Climate Action Tracker awarded Brazil and Peru a medium rating for their targets, being at the weaker end of a fair contribution to global efforts. That is the same category as the EU, US and China. Offers from Chile and Argentina were branded inadequate, in line with 3-4C of temperature rise from pre-industrial levels. None of these countries will be immune...
