inequalities of climate change, they began campaigning to get the
International Court of Justice (ICJ) in The Hague to consider what
obligations states had to tackle climate change under international
law, and what consequences they might face if they failed to meet
them. By 2023, at the urging of politicians from Vanuatu and other
small island states, the ICJ had agreed to give its legal opinion on
the matter at the formal request of the United Nations General

album Ghislaine Maxwell compiled for Epstein to mark his 50th birthday
in 2003. Though the Journal described the letter in detail and
reported what it said, as well details about other letters in the
birthday book, it did not publish an image of it, and the report did
not offer details about the whereabouts of the letter or book or
identify who had shown them to the publications reporters. Some of
Trumps defenders, including Vice-President J.D. Vance, quickly
attempted to discredit the report by asking where the letter was.
Seven days later, thats still not clear, and no images of the letter

Gold usually melts at 1,300 kelvinsa temperature hotter than fresh
lava from a volcano. But scientists recently shot a nanometers-thick
sample of gold with a laser and heated it to an astonishing 19,000

The feat was completely unexpected and has overturned 40 years of

researchers report in a paper published in the journal Nature. This
was extremely surprising, says study team member Thomas White of the
