Climate Home: There are many reasons to be optimistic world leaders will secure a deal in Paris next month that limits the damage wreaked by climate change. The French hosts have gone all-out on diplomacy, 179 countries have submitted climate pledges and the biggest emitters are on board. Those pledges don`t put the world on track to meet a 2C limit on warming, but they bend the curve. And there is growing consensus on the ratchet mechanism and finance needed to close the gap. All the same, getting agreement...

CNN: Four months and 1,300 miles ago, Erlend Moster Knudsen started running. Starting line: Arctic Norway. Destination: a U.N. climate change summit in Paris. I met the aerobically inclined climate scientist on the road last week in northern France. He ran (he is on his fourth pair of shoes) while I biked behind him, struggling to keep up. Freezing rain and snow pelted our faces as we traveled past misty fields, tile-roofed villages and Edward Scissorhands shrubbery. The whole thing was exhausting,...

Indian Express: IN THE strongest-ever push for a global agreement on climate change, leaders and monarchs from nearly 150 countries will assemble under one roof here on Monday, hoping that the show of solidarity would force a different result from the one six years ago when they last gathered in such numbers for the same cause. Unlike any previous climate change meeting -- an annual year-end event -- the two-week conference in Paris will kickstart with the high-profile presence of heads of states and governments...
