Trump keeps flip-flopping on abortion. American women are so over it – Los Angeles Times
By 2016, Donald Trump…was suggesting women should be punished for exercising their right to choose. After the House passed a national ban on abortion in 2017, this guy not only applauded the bill but also spent a good chunk of 2018 trying to get the Senate to follow suit. In fact he was the first sitting president to address the March for Life convention, saying “send it to my desk for signing.” It was a handful of votes short.

e a semana só tem segundas-feiras – O Outro Lado
Conheci o homem do campo. Não tinha nome comum como os outros nomes. Tinha sonhos e carregava eles nos braços como se fosse colher o que plantou.
Não gosta da noite – disse – … é quando o cansaço bate forte e ele chega vestido de esperança – e na alma, o coração vadio ri de qualquer coisa. Leu para mim cartas que chegou em suas mãos, com letras que eu o ensinei a ler – quando ele era um moço sem sonhos – e começou a escrever poesias depois disso… Contou-me sobre o rio e suas curvas como se fossem serpentes a desenhar o formato entre a floresta e do bicho que louva a Deus e se molda ao ambiente. Acolhe a noite com seus cansaços tênues contrário ao sono que nem vem porque ele sonha em ser bicho e viver.

As Conflict Rages On, Israel and Gaza’s Environmental Fates May Be Intertwined – Inside Climate News
“Because of the prevailing current, most of that sewage flows northward to the Israeli beach town of Ashkelon, the site of Israel’s second-biggest desalination plant,” Friedman wrote in 2018. “Gaza’s waste is floating into Ashkelon’s desalination plant, and the plant has had to close several times to clean Gaza’s gunk out of its filters.”
History may soon be repeating itself: Without wastewater treatment infrastructure in Gaza, at least 100,000 cubic meters of sewage and wastewater are being discharged on land or into the Mediterranean Sea daily, according to UNEP estimates.
This is “renewing pollution threats to the intake of desalination plants in Israel,” writes Hall and co-authors for CSIS. “All the region’s water and wastewater sources cross into Israel, the West Bank, and Gaza alike. Both populations have an interest in tackling the crisis before it further undermines environmental and public health.”
