Forests on Indigenous lands help protect health in the Amazon
Healthy forests are more than climate shields; in the Amazon, they also serve as public-health infrastructure. A Communications Earth & Environment study spanning two decades across the biome links the extent and legal status of Indigenous Territories to 27 respiratory, cardiovascular, and zoonotic or vector-borne diseases. The findings are complex, but one pattern is clear: […]

Behind closed doors, our top CEOs say Trump is bad for business and it’s time to Make America into America Again
At our Yale Chief Executive Leadership Institute forum, over 100 business leaders said what they really think. They're worried Trump is eroding America’s future.

Not only was airfield at Bagram built in 1950s by Soviet Union, but potus was one who wanted US out of Afghanistan.
“It was Trump's administration that signed the peace agreement with the Taliban that paved the way for the withdrawal of US troops from Afghanistan near the end of his first term.”
Bad things may well happen to US soldiers if potus follows through on this.

We will not just mourn the Beech, the wonderful white lady of the Forest, the Birch is also suffering badly.
No more collecting birch sap in the spring,
making syrup or sugar, no tea from leaves and bark, no bark for starting fires, making knife handles, boxes book covers ornaments. No more wood to make a traditional Kuksa (cup) bowls and toys. No making Birch tar or pitch, no forests in the north where Chaga and many other mushrooms to grow.
I mourn the loss of every tree.
