Hey, I'm Sarah Marshall, and there's one story from the past that I've been circling around for years now. This eight-part series traces the hidden history of the satanic panic in North America. We'll connect the dots from Victoria, BC, to the backroads of Kentucky. Satan was having a moment, the sensationalist heartthrob of our time. The Devil You Know, available now wherever you get your podcasts. from cbc news it's the world this hour i'm joe cummings we go first to brazil where world leaders are gathering ahead of next week's opening of the cop 30 climate summit the summit is being held against a backdrop of rising climate emergencies and growing pushback from major stakeholders like the united states susan armistin reports Brazil's president made a bold decision to invite the world here to Belaan, a city less visited in Brazil and surrounded by the Amazon rainforest in a year when climate politics in some quarters are really under attack.

The U.S. has pulled out, no official delegation here. Prime Minister Carney also won't be here. He was once the UN envoy for climate finance, but the PMO says with the federal budget vote looming, he can't afford to be away. Some will read that as a step back from his climate change focus in the past. It's fair to say that this cop is about trying to retool how countries tackle the climate crisis. The Paris conference was 10 years ago. It set that important target of limiting heating to 1.5 or 2 degrees Celsius. Well, we're missing that target consistently. The world is still heating up.

The Supreme Court of Canada has announced it will not hear an appeals case involving a BC farm ordered to call hundreds of ostriches. The birds are among a flock that contracted avian flu last year, and that triggered the cull order from the Canadian Food Inspection Agency. Today's decision means there's now no legal justification to further delay the cull of the 300 birds. With the government shut down in Washington, now into its fifth week, the Federal Aviation Administration is being forced to limit the number. of flights in and out of some of the country's biggest airports. Willie Lowry reports.

Starting Friday, air travel in the U.S. may get a lot more complicated. That's because the Federal Aviation Administration says it needs to reduce flight traffic by 10% at 40 of the country's busiest airports. The government shutdown has dragged on to a 37th day. Air traffic controllers, already in short supply, have not been paid since mid-October. Come next week, if nothing changes, they will miss a second paycheck in a row. Now, controllers are forced to work without pay during the shutdown, but as that period extends to historic lengths,

the Department of Transportation is looking for ways to reduce pressure on them. Starting tomorrow, there will likely be a 4% reduction in flights, and the FAA will ratchet that up to 10% over the coming days. Willie Lowry, CBC News, Washington. The results of a 10-year audit are reviewed. dealing some significant security gaps at the Louvre. The audit was completed just prior to last month's daring jewel heist at the world-renowned Paris Museum.

Anna Cunningham has the details. With millions of visitors each year, the Louvre houses some of the world's most treasured and expensive works of art, including Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa painting. The conclusions of this audit started in 2015 a damning. It includes the discovery that just 39% of the museum's rooms have cameras. And although the museum did not lack money, funds were lavishly spent on new artworks rather than closing security gaps. The theft of the Crown Jules is without a doubt a deafening wake-up call, says Pierre Moscovici,

president of the Court of Auditors. There are reports that the password for the museum's security system was L'Uvre. Improvements are unlikely to be implemented and, until 2032. French police have charged four suspects in connection with the museum theft, but investigators are yet to locate the stolen treasures. Anna Cunningham, CBC News, London.
