According to a US State Department Press Release, the US Climate Envoy is flying to Morocco for a pre-climate conference conference.
U.S. Special Envoy for Climate Change Travel to Morocco
U.S. Special Envoy for Climate Change Dr. Jonathan Pershing will travel July 27-28 to Rabat, Morocco for meetings with Moroccan officials to discuss climate priorities for the year and plans for the upcoming 22nd Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP-22). Morocco will host COP-22 in Marrakesh, November 7-18, 2016 – the first climate conference since the successful adoption of the 2015 Paris Agreement.
Special Envoy Pershing will meet with counterparts at the Ministries of Foreign Affairs, Environment, Energy and Agriculture, as well as members of the COP-22 commission and steering committee responsible for planning and hosting COP-22. In his meetings, Dr. Pershing will discuss next steps to address global climate change, as well as shared priorities for the year, including: rapid entry-into-force of the Paris Agreement, implementation of countries’ Nationally Determined Contributions, mobilizing private sector finance for low-carbon climate resilient solutions and clean energy, and climate adaptation and resilience.

Morocco is widely considered to be a climate leader.
My prediction is these climate conferences will continue to proliferate until they discover Skype.

There doesn’t seem to be much climate “change” in that region.

To get a true understanding of CO2 ability to trap heat, the people atteding this meeting should do sleep naked in the dry desert. The dry deserts are a natural control for CO2 causing climate change. With no H20 available, only CO2 is left, and the result is some very very very very cold nights.
Just what evidence of climate change is there in the Sahara Desert over the past 2,000 years? None.
Attendance:
1. A few hundred scientists.
2. Hundreds of non-climate science specialists and professors.
3. Several thousand political delegates.
4. Tens of thousands of h for public hawkers looking for government and private funding and sales.
Every year, all these tens of thousands get their annual 2 week all expenses paid work/vacation in a new place. Cancun, Bali, AbuDhabi, Paris, Cape Town, …..
What would they do to ANYBODY that puts their annual vacation in jeopardy by saying the problem is minor or non-existent?
Is it really safe for the US Climate Envoy to fly to Morocco?
Isn’t climate change supposed to cause planes to fall from the sky when they go over the ocean, due to the risk that all the missing heat in the ocean might suddenly be released causing severe turbulence and wind shear?
