More than a century of burning coal, oil and gas is catching up with us, and there´s little time to change course. The report, released Monday by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, warns that the planet is on track to blow past 1.5 degrees Celsius (2.7 degrees Fahrenheit) of warming, a critical threshold virtually every nation on Earth agreed to work to avoid. We can expect to overshoot that within about a decade unless we immediately switch to renewable energy and slash planet-warming pollution in half by 2030.

Two decades on from the beginning of the war, with the "shock and awe" assault of March 19, 2003, we are still fathoming the impact of the U.S.-led and U.K.-backed invasion. It did not take long for anyone to realize that the Iraq war was the disaster that many had predicted; not much longer than it took to confirm that it was launched on a lie and that there were no weapons of mass destruction. The body count and wider damage have not stopped rising since. Whatever relief or joy was felt by Iraqis at the fall of Saddam Hussein´s violent and oppressive regime, it was soon subsumed by the horror of what followed. When the 10th anniversary arrived, Islamic State (IS), birthed by the war´s fallout, had yet to make its frightening rise to establishing a "caliphate".

(AP) - Ford says its new assembly plant under construction in western Tennessee will be able to build up to 500,000 electric pickup trucks a year at full production. Construction began last year. Ford says the assembly and battery plants will employ about 6,000 people with an investment of roughly $5.6 billion.
