Associated Press: The cold hard numbers of science haven't spurred the world to curb runaway global warming. So as climate negotiators struggle in Paris, some scientists who appealed to the rational brain are enlisting what many would consider a higher power: the majesty of faith. It's not God versus science, but followers of God and science together trying to save humanity and the planet, they say.

New York Times: After two decades of talks that failed to slow the relentless pace of global warming, negotiators from almost 200 countries are widely expected to sign a deal in the next two weeks to take concrete steps to cut emissions. The prospect of progress, any progress, has elicited cheers in many quarters. The pledges that have already been announced represent a clear and determined down payment on a new era of climate ambition from the global community of nations, said Christiana Figueres, executive...

Climate Home: For Daniel Price, the toughest stretch was cycling across the Gobi Desert. For Erlend Knudsen, it was running through a two-day snowstorm in the mountains outside Bergen, Norway. Their journeys are not over. These two polar researchers have swapped physical science for physical exertion, on a mission to spread awareness of climate change. They are on twin odysseys from the Arctic and Antarctic to Paris, France, where diplomats meet to strike a global climate deal next month. Following the...
