The discussions focused on methane emissions and reducing reliance on coal. The meetings mark the first major climate talks between the U.S. and China in nearly a year.
Critics argue the talks should never have occurred and that the Biden administration is falling into a Chinese trap of endless negotiations. Former President Donald Trump took a confrontational approach to China and imposed tariffs, while some argue that talking with China is ineffective as they only understand action. Sen. Bill Hagerty dismissed the importance of Kerry's talks, accusing China of using negotiations to stall progress and gain leverage.

The Epoch Times: Allegations of 'Denialism' Obstruct Access to Truth
The practice of denying the validity of something with irrefutable proof is known as denialism. In modern history, Holocaust denial is a widely recognized example of denialism that is considered an act of pure evil. However, in recent times, the term "denialist" has been used by progressive activists and politicians to discredit and silence conservative opponents, hindering open debate and free speech. This deliberate deception is aimed at justifying the restriction of alternative viewpoints.

National Review: The Corner: The Government Won’t Keep You Warm at Night
Senator Chris Murphy has sponsored a bill to create a federal office to combat loneliness and promote social connection. The bill would also create a set of "research-based" practices and provide funding for the CDC.

Foreign Policy: Cluster Bombs and the Contradictions of Liberalism
The Biden administration's decision to supply Ukraine with cluster munitions contradicts its liberal principles and commitment to a rules-based order. Liberalism's universalist pretensions create an all-or-nothing struggle between good and evil in foreign policy, leading to conflict with countries that have different traditions. The fragility of liberal convictions is evident when policies or partners that contradict these principles are embraced. Realism offers a saner and more peaceful approach to international affairs by considering the interests of other states and making diplomatic adjustments. Acknowledging these lapses would lead to more civil and productive public discourse and improve the success of U.S. foreign policy.

Breitbart: Former Patriot Asante Samuel Says Bill Belichick 'Absolutely Not' the Greatest Coach of All Time
Former Patriot Asante Samuel disagrees that Bill Belichick is the greatest coach in NFL history. Samuel believes that Belichick's success is solely due to Tom Brady. While it is true that Brady played a significant role in the Patriots' success, Belichick also has two Super Bowl rings without him. It is unfair to disregard Belichick's previous 20 years with Brady because he hasn't won in the past three years without him. Brady may have won in 2020, but it is questionable if he would have had the same success without the culture that Belichick created in New England.

Forbes: Why Does Rain Smell?
The scent of rain, known as petrichor, is a combination of oils and chemicals released from the ground during rainfall. It is caused by water, along with compounds like ozone, geosmin, and plant oils. Ozone, created by lightning, is transported to the surface by rain droplets, adding to the petrichor scent. Geosmin, secreted by bacteria in the soil, is released into the air by raindrops. Plant oils released during rainfall also contribute to the smell of petrichor. Overall, petrichor is the unique earthy smell associated with rain.
