The COP29 Update -- November 11, 2024

Locator: 48742ENVIRONMENT. 

I'm lovin' it! Jesse Watters. The Megyn Kelly Show. 

But I draw the line at Joy Reid. LOL. Although I may tune in for a moment or two. She's just so much to watch. LOL. [By the way, Megyn Kelly thinks MSNBC will let Joy Reid go.][Apparently Joy Reid liberal women are shaving their heads to show their defiance.] I learned a lot tonight on the Megyn Kelly show tonight. Nothing to do with right / left; conservative / liberal, but simply more about the issues in the Trump-Harris campaign. Top three issues -- and each issue was singly responsible for Trump winning -- but each issue was unique in different areas of the country -- the three issues -- inflation (high cost of groceries); immigration; trans. And that was it. Across all demographics the #1 issue was trans.

Again, I haven't watched these shows prior to six days ago, and now I'm addicted. YouTube has really raised the bar. Full episodes. Almost ad-free.

I can catch highlights of any sports event that I might have missed. It's amazing.

Kyoto Protocol: I've long lost the bubble on the Kyoto Protocol and the Paris Agreement. Apparently this is where it stands.

From Bjorn today:

COP29: the 29th conference of the UN Climate Change Conference -- Baku, November, 2024.

The latest:

At the link, look at the attendees. Looks like a rogues list of grifters. Wow, what a group. My hunch: Trump's executive order has already been written, if not already signed. Just needs to be dated.

And then, this:

Who knows? Maybe he will surprise us.

Colugos Vs Lemurs

Colugos vs lemurs.

KPCOFLGS.

King Phillip carried off freedom-loving girl scouts.

Kingdom.

Phylum.

Class.

Order ("sisters")

Family (each "sister" has an extended family / families).

Genus. 

Species.

*******
Class: Mammalia

Orders: there are 26 - 29 orders within the Mammalian class, including primates, carnivores, marsupials, and "dermopteras."

Lemurs are primates.

Colugos, often called flying lemurs, are not lemurs. In fact, they are not even in the same order as lemurs (primates).

Colugos are in a separate order of mammals: the order -- dermoptera, from the Greek, derma - skin and pteron - wing.

Lemurs: omnivores (like humans). Madagascar only.

Colugos: strict herbivores. Broad range -- southeast Asia. 

So, both are mammals but they are "sisters" (orders) within the mammalian class. The mammalian class has 26 - 29 sisters (orders).
