Tome cuidado com aquilo que você pensa — Pensamentos.me/VEM comigo!

Cuidado com aquilo que pensa. Pensamentos podem virar atitudes; e atitudes quando não bem administradas, podem virar ações desastrosas. Pode não parecer, mas se nós, não tivermos a capacidade de ser pessoas sensatas diante de situações que exigem muito da nossa capacidade de raciocínio, se faltar a destreza necessária, acredite: somos capazes de cometer atrocidades,…

Tome cuidado com aquilo que você pensa — Pensamentos.me/VEM comigo!

Be careful what you think. Thoughts can become attitudes; and attitudes when not well managed, can turn into disastrous actions.

Mid-pandemic, Lebanon medicine shortages sow panic – France 24

With Lebanon’s economy in a tailspin and the coronavirus pandemic wreaking chaos, panic-buying has gripped pharmacies, creating shortages and a flourishing black market.

All manner of pharmaceutical products have started disappearing from the shelves in recent weeks, including some of the most widely needed.

Mostly imported, they include any medicine thought to fight symptoms of Covid-19, pills for patients with chronic diseases, baby formula and even vitamin supplements.

One customer, Abbas, 37, said he was giving up as he stepped out of a large Beirut pharmacy.

“I asked for two things,” he said — aspirin and an antibiotic. “I found neither.”

Territorio degli Yanomami, Alto Orinoco, Amazonas, Venezuela

Come afferma il portavoce y sciamano degli Yanomami Davi Kopenawa nel suo libro La caduta del cielo: « Hanno liberato le piste di atterraggio ovunque per i loro aerei ed elicotteri, che vagavano costantemente nei cieli. Passarono davanti alle case della gente della foresta in fitte colonne, numerose come formiche koyo. Le donne avevano paura di uscire, anche di attingere acqua! La foresta è stata svuotata della selvaggina e gli uomini hanno smesso di cacciare. Rimasero tutti distesi sulle amache, schiacciati da febbri implacabili. … Gli anziani che parlavano saggiamente furono uccisi perché si opposero coraggiosamente ai cercatori d’oro o morirono di malaria o polmonite. … Tutti i sentieri nella foresta erano diventati sporchi sguazzi di pecari, ei fiumi erano ridotti a stagni fangosi. »

Miniera d’oro che distrugge la foresta

Migliaia di alberi della foresta pluviale devono essere sradicati, centinaia di tonnellate…
