Do you know how much taxpayer money is being spent to fight climate change? In the next decade, our elected leaders could be spending billions.This time of year, in the Miami Beach area, is known as king tide season. It’s a time when tides wash to record levels.Residents like Chris Johnson wonder why the salty seas seem to keep rising."It makes you think, is global warming real?” Johnson says. “Or is it just the moon that pulls the tide up?”Many people seem to pose the same question, and if you ask local leaders, they all agree climate is changing."Something is going on that wasn't going on 40 to 50 years ago,” says Jimmy Morales, a Miami Beach city manager.Most leaders in the area say there’s no questioning climate change."Places that used to be above water are now below water,” Morales says. “Islands that are disappearing, you see it, it's there.”Morales is attending the annual Global Action Climate Summit, where policy makers discuss ways to curb the consequences that come with shrinking shorelines.Over 10 years, the plan is to invest up to a billion to raise roads and install more pumps, in order to prevent the Atlantic from swallowing the city. It’s an issue he says everyone should care about."Don't think, 'Well, I don't live in a coastal town, it doesn't matter.’ It does matter,” Morales says. “The only way to really make a change and a difference is to throw your vote in a box and hope that enough people agree with you.” 1467

During the week as results were being compiled, a number of international leaders were careful not to speak out on Tuesday's presidential election. Now that President-Elect Joe Biden has been projected to win the election, leaders across the world have sent their congratulations to Biden, who will take office on January 20, 2021.“On behalf of the Government of Canada, I congratulate Joe Biden and Kamala Harris on their election as the next President and Vice President of the United States of America,” Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said.“Canada and the United States enjoy an extraordinary relationship – one that is unique on the world stage. Our shared geography, common interests, deep personal connections, and strong economic ties make us close friends, partners, and allies. We will further build on this foundation as we continue to keep our people safe and healthy from the impacts of the global COVID-19 pandemic, and work to advance peace and inclusion, economic prosperity, and climate action around the world.”UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson, someone generally seen as an ally of President Donald Trump, sent this tweet: 1154

Dog owners from across the country boarded their dogs at Young Gunz Kennel so they could be trained to be hunting dogs.But now, owners are wondering how their pups were left for dead in kennels.After dropping off her puppy "Duke" at Young Gunz?Kennel in early April, Dani Allison of Spencer, Iowa, heard yesterday that Duke was one of three dogs found dead at the facility and the owner, Dustin Young, was nowhere to be seen. "I think that he let our dog die and didn't have the courtesy to call us or tell us or do anything but put him in a black bag," says Allison. Pottawatamie County Animal Control seized the dogs that were still living yesterday and took some to the Council Bluffs Humane Society and others to a makeshift shelter in Oakland where their owners could pick them up. "All of them were pretty shaken of course at the time because none of them had water in probably two days. So we did give them water and food of course but there was a lot of diarrhea and things like that that you have to deal with," says Matt Wyant, who oversees animal control in Pottawattamie County.  1134

During the last few months, many health experts have been talking about reaching “herd immunity” with the distribution of the COVID-19 vaccine. Over the Christmas weekend, Dr. Anthony Fauci said he estimates the country needs to reach 80-85% with the vaccine to attain herd immunity.Here’s what that means.Herd immunity is a concept used in discussions about vaccination, and signifies the threshold needed for a population as a whole to be protected from a virus.The World Health Organization clarifies that herd immunity, or population immunity, “is achieved by protecting people from a virus, not by exposing them to it.”The Mayo Clinic also describes the situation following the 1918 Spanish Flu outbreak. They say people who survived the pandemic were later immune to infection of the H1N1 flu, also referred to as swine flu.Health experts warn that relying on community infection to create herd immunity could be dangerous; there are questions about how long the antibodies created by infection protect against reinfection, and a high level of community infection could lead to overwhelmed medical facilities and a high number of deaths.When the threshold of herd immunity is reached, it means the vast majority of a population is vaccinated and has antibodies, thereby lowering the overall amount of community spread of the virus. It also means portions of the population who cannot get vaccinated are kept safer by the limited spread.What that threshold is varies depending on the virus and the efficacy of the vaccine.According to the WHO, herd immunity against the measles is reached with 95% vaccination, while herd immunity against polio is 80%.Dr. Fauci believes herd immunity for COVID-19 can be reached with around 85% of the population having antibodies. 1778
