So, once you understand the cultural context, you know to give the people both mosquito netting and fishing nets. This would be easier if you could afford outreach and food assistance. This just shows that food assistance is a key part of m

I think the greatest challenge with eradicating Malaria is that it is most prevalent in impoverished regions of the world. The USA occasionally has incursions of Malaria which is quickly quashed by the CDC National Malaria Surveillance Syst

My partner has a Kobo and I'm seriously considering one. My Kindle has done more for my sleep than any other device. I get sleepy reading it, unlike my phone or tablet. I really wish I could my content on either device.

I am so excited for this. I've run into so many books where color would make it ten times better. Also, the Comixology subscription will be so much more valuable with this device. The only thing I have a wish for is that the device is

This is going to suck. Windows 11 refuses to install on my Vishera core AMD computer. I know there is a bypass, but I'm not happy about having to deal with that and possibly compromise my OS using unsupported software. I'm probabl

Radiation levels at such sites generally drops due to dilution. As we have seen in the case of other wastes like mercury and dioxins, you can get bioaccumulation of this waste in the food chain causing environmental damage.

I don't think that's how it works. For all we know, in ten years, parts of the Atlantic Ocean could become uninhabitable by marine life due to radioactive plumes. Or not. The history of radioactive waste disposal is very short. Du

We need some serious trust busting in the USA. It's been a problem for decades and has culminated in the slow destruction of the middle class. The longer we wait, the harder it will be to fix the issue.

The point is, if we cannot responsibly dispose of waste, we should not be creating it in the first place.

Most of Tampa Bay is less than 50 feet above sea level. It's not quite as bad as New Orleans, but it's not good. A comparable storm would be the 1921 Tampa Bay hurricane that made landfall in a very similar way when Tampa was not

To add to your point. Disposal of nuclear waste at sea was common up until 1993. There is still a couple hundred thousand tons of such waste sitting in the ocean right now. In addition, about 214 times as much radioactive material was gener

I guess false confessions are a huge issue. In addition, our system is mostly designed to around the needs of the rich and corporate interests. Prosecution for crimes against the poor and disenfranchised is critically underfunded. Public de

Of all the toxins I deal with on a daily basis, plastics do not concern me nearly as much as the known cancer causing chemicals in car and plane exhaust. I generally hate plastic because it pollutes the ocean and is littered everywhere. I t
