Does He Really Not Salute? | NANMYKEL.COM

SEROUSLY, in this age of no Fact Check, will someone please tell me if the President elect has a problem with saluting the U.S. flag.  I published the photo I had from 2015, probably, but I just spied him at President Carter’s funeral, where everyone else seemed to be saluting, even his wife, but he was not.  If there’s some situation or pecadillo I’ve missed, I’d like to know.  I’d hate to mislead anyone.

GNARLY FOLKS

Once as innocent as snow,

Certain friends grew up to know

Nefariousness and more

In their search not to be poor.

Cops and Robbers, fun to play

Perfect for a childhood day.

Doesn’t fit when we are grown,

Taking on a querulous tone.

Families split, old friends too.

If  prayer works for you, please do.

Prince Harry and Meghan hug residents in Pasadena

Prince Harry and Meghan hug residents in Pasadena

Prince Harry and Meghan were seen hugging residents in Los Angeles in the wake of the worst wildfires the city has ever seen.

The couple visited the Pasadena Convention Center where they spoke with locals, including emergency workers who have been tackling the Eaton Fire.

The wildfire in Eaton has burned nearly 14,000 acres of land so far, with just three per cent of the fire contained.

The Sussexes live in Montecito, near Santa Barbara, approximately 92 miles (148km) away from Los Angeles.

They have reportedly taken in some friends who have lost their homes to the fires.

«Nos olvidamos y nos consideramos superiores. Pero, después de todo, somos solo una parte de la creación» – ¡Todos necesitamos revisar nuestra relación con la naturaleza y re-orientar nuestra asociación con el consumismo!  | Barbara Crane Navarro

« No veo delegación de cuatro patas. No veo un asiento para las águilas. Nos olvidamos y nos consideramos superiores. Pero, después de todo, somos solo una parte de la creación. Y tenemos que considerar esto para entender dónde estamos. Y estamos parados en algún lugar entre la montaña y la hormiga. En algún lugar y allí como parte integral de la creación. »

  • Jefe Oren Lyons, Nación Séneca, hablando ante las organizaciones no gubernamentales de las Naciones Unidas, Ginebra, Suiza, 1977

«Los últimos 500 años han visto una ‘reorganización rápida, continua y radical de la vida en la Tierra sin precedentes geológicos’: la llegada del colonialismo europeo, el imperialismo y la expansión asociada de los sistemas económicos capitalistas que conducen a la transferencia de enfermedades, plantas, animales, formas de uso de la tierra y sistemas administrativos en todo el mundo.»

Según la ONU, estamos entrando en una « era de pandemia » causada por la deforestación, la pérdida de hábitat, la agricultura intensiva y el tráfico de vida silvestre.

El Panel Intergubernamental sobre Cambio Climático (IPCC) ha dicho que una de las formas más importantes de reducir las emisiones de carbono es cambiar a una dieta basada en plantas.

La industria de la carne es responsable de producir más contaminación climática que todos los automóviles, barcos, camiones y aviones del mundo juntos.

Esta presión de los consumidores ha provocado la destrucción de enormes áreas de bosque tropical, ricas en biodiversidad, capaces de capturar grandes cantidades de carbono.

La UE es responsable del 16% de la deforestación vinculada al comercio internacional, justo detrás de China, y tiene la intención de proponer una legislación para prevenir la deforestación importada a la UE tras la cumbre COP26.

Las iniciativas gubernamentales y corporativas son importantes pero, como hemos visto durante décadas, las buenas intenciones y los discursos inspiradores no son necesariamente seguidas de acciones.

Como consumidores, podemos desempeñar un papel importante a la hora de tomar decisiones que puedan ayudar a prevenir la destrucción total de los bosques del mundo. Lo que elegimos comer y consumir afecta la biodiversidad y los pueblos indígenas a miles de kilómetros de distancia de sus hogares.

Tenemos que preguntarnos: ¿qué deberíamos comprar realmente? ¿Qué es lo que realmente necesitamos comer?

La compra de artículos de temporada de origen local que no viajen 3000 kilómetros ayuda a combatir la deforestación a escala mundial. En pocas palabras, si no se cultiva o se produce cerca, no lo compre. Podemos limitar la destrucción de bosques y hábitats boicoteando los productos de la deforestación; oro, aceite de palma, soja, carne pero también maderas exóticas, diamantes …

Nuestras acciones ahora determinarán el futuro de nosotros mismos y del resto del mundo viviente.

Six Lifestyle Changes To Reduce Your Carbon Emissions — Mother Jones | Barbara Crane Navarro

This story was originally published by the Guardian and is reproduced here as part of the Climate Desk collaboration. Research shows that people in wealthier, high-consuming countries can help avert climate breakdown by making six relatively straightforward lifestyle changes, creating a society of “less stuff and more joy.” Experts say if enacted these “shifts” would account for a quarter of…

Panama Canal will remain Panamanian and open to all nations, says official | Panama | The Guardian

The Panama Canal will remain in Panamanian hands, and open to commerce from all countries, according to the administrator of the waterway, who rejected claims by president-elect Donald Trump that the US should take it over.

Ricaurte Vásquez denied Trump’s claims that China was controlling the canal’s operations, and said making exceptions to current rules concerning its operation would lead to “chaos”.

He said Chinese companies operating in the ports on either end of the canal were part of a Hong Kong consortium that won a bidding process in 1997. He added that US and Taiwanese companies are operating other ports along the canal as well.
