What You Need To Know About The Paris Climate Summit (it's do-or-die time)
Huffington Post ^ | 11/29/15 | Nick Visser

**SNIPP**

The conference comes at a dire moment. The world has shattered record after climate record, with 2014 ranking as the hottest year in recorded history. The planet's glaciers are melting at the fastest rates ever seen. Underwater, coral reefs are suffering from an assault of bleaching, spurred by ever-warmer oceans.

All of these effects have prompted harsh warnings about the potential impact on humanity. Rising seas from melting glaciers could inundate some of the world's largest metropolises. Warmer summers could force the evacuation of certain cities that may see days with a heat index upwards of 170 degrees Fahrenheit.

And yet, there is still time to act.

Those attending the meeting hope to hash out an actionable strategy to limit emissions below a warming threshold that, scientists agree, would ward off the worst of the predicted threats. That level - 2 degrees Celsius (3.6 degrees Fahrenheit) over pre-industrial temperatures - is a contentious number, but the conference reflects growing awareness that climate change is a very real problem.

the question Republicans should be asking is...

these meetings, (’COP21’ this time), happen every year...
what is so important this year in Paris,
what was so important in 2009 at Copenhagen?

answer... the rest of the world
thought that (new president)Obama was
going to hurt the US in 2009,
something similar for 2015
