Power cuts and no translator - Cop30 misfires as indigenous people's groups determined to make their voices heard on world stage

But the ill-timed blackout fed an ­undercurrent of scepticism that this year's summit - dubbed "the indigenous peoples Cop" - will deliver on organisers' promise to put them front and centre at the event on the edge of the Amazon rainforest where many indigenous groups live. Indigenous peoples safeguard much of the world's biodiversity and are among those who contribute the least to climate change, yet they're disproportionately harmed by the devastation it causes.

This Part of Parenting Comes With a Cost. And I'm Really Starting to Feel It.

First, I want to tell you that I've been there. Sometimes, as you're discovering, there really isn't much to do except take a break or sit things out if that's what your kid needs. In those cases, I would suggest that if you have a co-parent, the two of you take turns hanging out with your child so that it's not always you missing out on the chance for community.

What My Sister Taught Me About Humanity

The comment caused controversy, with many calling it upsetting and insensitive. What his comment also did, though, was get me to think about my own experiences with disability from a philosophical perspective. I am not disabled myself, and I specialise in Comparative Philosophy, not Philosophy of Disability. What experience of disability, then, do I have? It is rather, the experience I had with someone else that explains why I feel that I have a genuine stake in this debate.
