Florida, perhaps the most vulnerable state to sea-level rise and extreme weather, is on the verge of repealing what's left of a 16-year-old law that lists climate change as a priority when making energy policy decisions.

A UK Zoo has shared captivating night-time CCTV footage of their elephants as they prepare to sleep. The video, shared by Noah’s Ark Zoo Farm in North Somerset, provides a glimpse into the nocturnal behaviours of 18-year-old Janu and 9-year-old Sutton. It shows Janu lying on his side while Sutton, the younger of the two, playfully attempts to engage him and snuggle up as closely as possible.

They tend to sleep for between 1-2 hours in one stint, then get up and move around a little, before going down for their next bout."
