O OURO nada mais é do que pó brilhante na lama, mas os brancos podem matar por isso! — CURIOSIDADES NA INTERNET

Covid and Brain Function

CRAIN'S COMMENTS

The new article in Science is one that I both expected and feared.

The findings are that Covid survivors, whether hospitalized or not, can show long term mental defects. “Long term” today means months after infection, because the disease hasn’t been around that long. What we don’t know is how long these effects linger, or whether some people never recover.

What we do know is that up to 30% of those hospitalized are affected, and that, six months after recovery, just about half of these remain unable to return to work. The brain is “fuzzy”, they many have difficulty reading screens or processing simple information and doing habitual tasks. Looking both ways when crossing the street becomes an issue. Leaving water boiling and forgetting about it becomes an issue. That’s for people in their 30s, not 90s.

Unfortunately, an unknown percentage of people who are never treated for the initial…

Can Simplified Climate Solution help Children to Take care of the Environment in a Better Way?

FunWritings

Would you like to tell the children about the climate solutions so they can help to reduce pollution?

There is a need for climate action and if we won’t change what we are doing, we won’t be see any change that will lead to satisfaction

Children can develop the right eco-habits and start going green

They can help to keep the environment clean

But if they are allowed to grow up with all the bad habits the adults have on display

Will they ever understandwhy they should treat the environment in a better way?

Children deserve to inherit a planet that is beautiful

There are some adults who have decided tosay things that are truthful

Up to 85% of Historical Salmon Habitat Lost in Lower Fraser Region – Here’s What’s Needed To Reverse Salmon Declines

In order to reverse salmon declines, researchers say, more than 1,200 barriers blocking off streams and habitats need to be removed. For perhaps the first time ever, researchers have mapped out the true extent of habitat loss for salmon in the Lower Fraser River, one of the most important spawnin

Climate Change: China Plans 43 New Coal-Fired Power Plants | Time (Me: Reforestation and being “green” Just PR)

China is leading the world in new coal power plants, building more than three times as much new coal power capacity as all other countries in the world combined in 2020. It isn’t alone in its reliance on coal, however. China and four other countries, India, Indonesia, Japan and Vietnam, account for more than 80% of the coal power stations planned across the world, according to a June report by the think-tank Carbon Tracker.

Now COVID-19 vaccines are here in Jamaica, some of us would still prefer to party but – just get vaccinated

“We have had more than enough deaths now – a total of 1,371 since the pandemic began. In case you missed the key message of this post it is this: get vaccinated, and get others vaccinated – including your teenage children.”

Petchary's Blog

The Delta variant has “officially” arrived, the Ministry of Health and Wellness has announced. Twenty-two out of forty samples were returned from the Caribbean Public Health Agency. We are in the early stages of the dreaded Third Wave. Already, it is terrible. As all this is happening, we are also struggling with a wave of anti-vaccination propaganda (politely called “vaccine hesitancy”) dissemination by an unknown person or persons on Facebook or “forwarded many times” on WhatsApp. Did we want the vaccine doses, after all? We have plenty, for now.

Many of us, it seems, would prefer to believe a stranger on the Internet than our own doctors, who are working so hard, at this moment. And if the “hesitants” fall sick, they will trust the same doctors whom they ignore to make them better.

A Plan to Slow the Creep of the Sahara—by Planting Gardens | WIRED (Me: Wisdom!)

Aly Ndiaye, a Senegal-born agricultural engineer who helped design the tolou keur, told Reuters that the Great Green Wall ought to be made up of smaller, productive gardens that are “permanent, useful, and sequential,” a series of practical plots rather than an unbroken line of trees. Okolie agrees that the project can’t be about shoving any seedling in the ground. He says it must entail “trying to locate the best species that can thrive” in the given soil conditions and climate, while also appealing to the people who will nourish them. Researchers have found that agroforestry projects often fail when the focus is solely on tree-planting and locals are left out of the process. “When the government plants trees, it’s the community people who will sustain them” Okolie says. “The community has to take ownership.”

Vietnam to deploy troops, issues stay-home order as COVID-19 deaths spiral | Reuters

Vietnam will deploy troops in Ho Chi Minh City and prohibit residents from leaving their homes, authorities said on Friday, as the country’s biggest city turns to drastic measures to slow a spiralling rate of coronavirus deaths. Vietnam’s toughest order yet comes amid a spike in fatalities and infections, despite weeks of lockdown measures in the business hub of 9 million people, the epicentre of the country’s deadliest outbreak. “We are asking people to stay where you are, not to go outside. Each home, company, factory should be an anti-virus fort,” Pham Duc Hai, deputy head of the city’s coronavirus authority, said on Friday. The government said it was preparing to mobilise police and military to enforce the lockdown and deliver food supplies to citizens.
