Climate News: U.S. mega drought; Cannon-Brookes gains ground; U.K. PM's behaviour prompts questions on climate legitimacy

Mike Cannon-Brookes (pictured) has been pushing to restructure AGL and Nick Toscano tells us: "Billionaire Cannon-Brookes gains ground in bid to revamp AGL board".

And from ABC News we hear: "European Union bans sale of petrol and diesel cars from 2035 to boost electric vehicle uptake".

From The Mirror it's: "Rishi Sunak accepted cash from fossil fuel investors in campaign to become PM".

The Daily Mail says: "Rishi's first U-turn? No10 now admits Sunak COULD attend Cop-27 climate summit in Egypt (having previously said he was 'too busy') as PM makes 'substantial progress' on Autumn Budget – and after Boris hints he might go".

Writing on The Conversation Associate Professor from the University of Melbourne, Brian Robert Cook tells us: Floods are natural, but human decisions make disasters. We need to reflect on the endless cycles of blame".

Anna Skibell writes in Politico about the "United States of megadrought."
