What's the point in the Cop31 climate summit?

Is there still a point to the Cop climate summit? Subscribe ► https://www.youtube.com/user/theguardian?sub_confirmation=1 Ten years after the Paris treaty entered into force, the Cop31 UN climate summit begins today in the Turkish coastal city of Antalya. With the current state of emissions targets, many are wondering if real progress can be achieved. More than 90 heads of state and government, along with ministers and senior officials from close to 190 countries, are expected to attend. Despite growing scepticism from the media and the public, the Guardian’s environment editor, Fiona Harvey, explains why she thinks the world’s biggest climate summit still matters. #cop31 #climatecrisis #nepal #elniño #extremeweather #antalya

The 18-metre-high mega-warehouse towering over a quiet Manchester village

“It’s a living hell, it really is.” Subscribe to The Guardian on YouTube ► https://www.youtube.com/user/theguardian?sub_confirmation=1 The Guardian’s Robyn Vinter reports from the village that has become a frontline in the fightback against superstructures springing up across the UK. In the small village of Astley in Greater Manchester, people are furious about the “monster” construction of a 18-metre-high (60ft) mega-warehouse. This week, villagers will attempt to block plans by Whistl, the distribution firm that operates the warehouse, to use dozens of HGVs and trailers for its round-the-clock operation. In a two-day public inquiry starting today, they will describe how the “cacophony” of noise is already driving some to sleep deprivation and depression. The situation in Astley is just one physical manifestation of the way tech and logistical infrastructure is impacting lives across the UK, from Devon to Cardiff and the Scottish Borders. Plans for Britain’s biggest datacentre were announced last week in North Yorkshire. #whistl #astley #uk #manchester

We asked Vivek Ramaswamy and Ohio midterm voters about his Amy Acton attack ad

Will Vivek Ramaswamy's Amy Acton ad impact how Ohio voters cast their ballots for governor? Subscribe ► https://www.youtube.com/user/theguardian?sub_confirmation=1 Ramaswamy's ad featured the estranged mother of Acton, the Democratic candidate running against him. It prompted a wave of revulsion since Acton’s mother lost custody of her daughter in 1978, when her second husband was charged with raping her daughter between the ages of 10 and 12. Fabiola Cineas, the Guardian's movement-building reporter, went to Ohio to talk to voters – and Ramaswamy himself – about the controversial ad that has sparked bipartisan backlash. #vivekramaswamy #amyacton #midterms #ohio #usmidterms #midtermelections
