CNN —In a world where the climate is increasingly hot and volatile, farmers are having trouble keeping their crops cool. A startup founded in the desert of Saudi Arabia thinks it might have a solution. Heat peaks can desiccate crops, killing them outright if unmitigated, or stressing crops, leaving them more vulnerable to pests and disease.

Wharton caught the child after he fell headfirst from the Bank of America Stadium stands following the Chiefs’ 30-27 win against the Carolina Panthers in Charlotte, North Carolina, on Sunday. The child loses his footing before falling headfirst from the stands, which are roughly 10 feet above the ground. It is not clear from the video whether a railing gave way, or whether the particular area that the young fan was leaning over was not covered by a fence. But I just had to kind of, like, push him into the stands a little bit to make sure he didn’t hit too hard,” he continued.

CNN —President-elect Donald Trump announced Jamieson Greer as his pick to serve as the next US trade representative. Greer is no stranger to the role, having served as chief of staff to the trade representative during Trump’s first term, Robert Lighthizer. Trump has routinely referenced the passage of the USMCA trade agreement – which replaced the North American Free Trade Agreement, or NAFTA – as a political victory and a highlight of his presidency. The threat of tariffs could also be used as a negotiation tactic, as Trump has pledged to renegotiate the USMCA. In that role, he has covered cases on topics including trade policy and negotiations and trade agreement enforcement.

CNN —Can the green shoots of clean energy break through the “brown blockade”? Those huge current and planned investments in new manufacturing plants may represent the sole opportunity to preserve any elements of Biden’s blueprint for growing the domestic clean energy industry. Republican districts are slated to receive an equally large share of another $435 billion in clean energy projects that have been announced but not yet built, the analysis found. The US reliance on the fossil fuels driving climate change has been declining for years, but only at a modest pace. Yet interrupting that transition by repealing the federal policies benefiting clean energy remains a dangerous gamble.
