4 - Here comes the judge

Whatever way they rule, it will spell out exactly where the law stands on what's legal and who's responsible for rising temperatures.

5 - "When hope and history rhyme…"

Looking at this challenge from a historical perspective really shows how much progress has been made in an incredibly short period of time.

Let's see.... A puff PR piece for a "climate summit" led by the world's biggest oil billionaires. Why would they want the public to think everything is just fine? Hmmm..

COP28 should not be given media time at all. It was led by oil companies who expanded oil production this year and who will be expanding next year. COP28 is an attempt to manipulate and placate the public. Do not believe them.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Even in parts of the UK not known for their sunny days, homeowners are sticking the silicon to their roofs; about 8% of homes on the Isle of Angelsey in north Wales are now powered by solar, in Aberdeenshire, it's close to 6%.

Prices for storage on this scale continue to tumble, and experts estimate that by the end of this decade there will be enough batteries in place to power 18 million homes across the UK.

One of the biggest climate suits in history is taking place in the US, where Oregon's Multnomah County is making a $52bn damages claim against a range of oil and gas producers for causing a massive heatwave back in 2021.

If they win this case, it will have huge legal and financial implications, potentially leading to dozens more lawsuits against fossil fuel producers, similar to the court struggles that big tobacco endured in the past.

"Getting the defendants to reduce their emissions is not within the reach of the civil justice system in the US, but holding them accountable for the harm they've caused, and the misrepresentations they've made, which has slowed adaptation to those problems, is definitely within their power," he told BBC News.

Just eight years ago, when the Paris climate agreement was signed, this remarkable document didn't contain any mention of coal, oil and gas, which are the biggest sources of planet warming gases.
