While the Crown Point Fire Department continues its investigation into a fire that decimated an apartment building early Sunday morning, the community isn’t letting the fire victims go without. Efforts to get the 31 families displaced by the fire at Cypress Pointe started pretty much immediately, Property Manager Mariam Jeninga said Monday. As she came into work, items were piled in front of the door high enough that it took her a moment to get inside, she said. “It’s been incredible, such an outpouring of support,” Jeninga said. “I’ve had people coming nonstop all day just wanting to help these residents.” Jeninga has also been working with residents and their insurance companies to get them placed in other units in the complex or, if that isn’t possible, a sister property in town, she said. The displaced residents, with the American Red Cross’s help, spent the night in a hotel last night, but now there’s a shelter set up at Immanuel Presbyterian Church, 140 U.S. 30 in Schererville, for those who don’t have other accommodations. “We have a place for the residents to stay — they have beds set up and are serving breakfast, lunch and dinner — so no one will go without a warm place while we get this figured out for them,” Jeninga said. People interested in donating to the displaced residents are asked to bring all sizes of men’s women and children’s clothing, hygiene products and pet supplies to the Cypress Pointe Leasing Office at 930 Cypress Pointe Dr., Crown Point. The office will not accept cash, but gift cards are welcome; those giving gift cards are to ask for Jeninga herself. Meanwhile, CPFD completed its scene investigation Monday afternoon, but the fire’s exact cause is not yet determined, Deputy Chief Ryan Cusack said. Preliminary results show, however, that the fire affected the center third of the 35-unit building, he said. The Crown Point Fire Department was called around 3:24 a.m. December 8 to the 900 block of Cypress Point Drive for a fire, according to a release the City of Crown Point put out Sunday. Crews arrived on the scene to find a fire that extended to the roof, so officers started alerting neighbors to evacuate, according to the release. None of the residents in the building when the fire broke out were injured, although a dog did die, according to social media. While it’s unclear how many units were occupied in the building, all units were affected because of the roof damage and power getting cut off; as such, the property manager has coordinated with the American Red Cross to get the residents temporary accommodations, the Post-Tribune previously reported. Four units, however, were destroyed, and four additional units have smoke and water damage, according to the release. Firefighters from multiple departments brought the fire under control in about an hour and cleared the scene by 7:15 a.m., according to the release. No firefighters were injured in the fire. The cause of the fire is under investigation. Those residents displaced by the fire who haven’t gotten help from the American Red Cross yet are asked to call 1-800-733-2767. The Crown Point Police Department and Emergency Management Agency, as well as the Merrillville, Cedar Lake, Lowell, Lake Dale, Lake Hills, Hebron, Schererville, Union Township and Boone Grove Fire Departments and Tri-Creek EMS, assisted.

Joyce made the remarks in a politics panel interview on Seven’s Sunrise, where he was joined by Environment Minister Tanya Plibersek who defended her climate record against the protester’s criticisms.

But if you’re breaking the law, if you’re endangering others, if you’re diverting police resources, then I think you need to face the consequences of that.” Joyce was more scathing in his assessment of the protests. “What these people are doing is going out in the harbour and saying ‘I want Australia to be poor’,” Joyce said. “They never suggest what pensions they want to remove or what schools they don’t want built. They don’t go out with that on their placard, they just go out and say ‘I want Australia to be poor because I have a selfish desire that I can inflict on you my worldview without accepting the consequences financially of what that means’.” Labor will harden its demands on the Greens to pass more than a dozen bills through parliament in the next four days in the belief that voters will blame the smaller party at the next election for blocking the government’s agenda. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese is seeking to have the draft laws passed without a single deal with the Greens after months of argument over housing, the environment, university fees, school funding and other reforms. The approach reflects a crucial calculation that the Greens have lost ground in recent state and local government elections and are at risk of losing federal seats because voters think the party has moved too far to the left on economic policy and the Middle East. But in two significant retreats, Labor shelved a bill on Sunday that sought to crackdown on misinformation and did not put forward a long-awaited ban on gambling advertising after earlier saying it would unveil the package before the end of the year.

In the wee hours Sunday at the United Nations climate talks, countries from around the world reached an agreement on how rich countries can cough up the funds to support poor countries in the face of climate change. It’s a far-from-perfect arrangement, with many parties still deeply unsatisfied but some hopeful that the deal will be a step in the right direction.

Rich countries have agreed to pool together at least $300 billion a year by 2035. It’s not near the full amount of $1.3 trillion that developing countries were asking for, and that experts said was needed. But delegations more optimistic about the agreement said this deal is headed in the right direction, with hopes that more money flows in the future. What will the money be spent on? The deal decided in Baku replaces a previous agreement from 15 years ago that charged rich nations $100 billion a year to help the developing world with climate finance. The new number has similar aims: it will go toward the developing world’s long laundry list of to-dos to prepare for a warming world and keep it from getting hotter. That includes paying for the transition to clean energy and away from fossil fuels. Countries need funds to build up the infrastructure needed to deploy technologies like wind and solar power on a large scale. Why was it so hard to get a deal? Election results around the world that herald a change in climate leadership, a few key players with motive to stall the talks and a disorganized host country all led to a final crunch that left few happy with a flawed compromise. Developing nations also faced some difficulties agreeing in the final hours. Meanwhile, activists ramped up the pressure: many urged negotiators to stay strong and asserted that no deal would be better than a bad deal. But ultimately the desire for a deal won out.
