WaPo on Kerry: "The then-secretary of state realized that an achievement central to the Obama administration, and to his own legacy, would almost certainly be dismantled...[Post Trump, Kerry has to] salvage the fight he has long considered central to his own stamp on history." ... helping to steer the nation and world toward a less calamitous future than scientists have warned awaits as climate change intensifies."

Climate lockdowns have arrived: France to ban domestic flights where trains are available, in move to battle ‘global warming’
CNN: France is set to ban short domestic flights in favor of train services, after lawmakers approved a plan that will see several air routes discontinued to reduce emissions. MPs voted late on Saturday to some suspend some flights by domestic airlines that can be made by train in less than two-and-a-half hours, as part of a wider climate bill. If the bill passes through France's upper house, the Senate, France will join a number of European countries seeking to move away from short flights. ... Left-wing MP Danièle Obono said the government's plan to move away from a four-hour limit would "save the three routes that emit the most greenhouse gas: Paris-Nice, Paris-Toulouse, (and) Paris-Marseille." ... Last year, Austria's flagship airline was ordered to replace one of its flights with a more frequent train service, in order to meet the environmental criteria of its government bailout.
