And yet, RFK Jr. is about to undo one of history's greatest medical achievements...
It was only after Jonas Salk developed the first safe & effective polio vaccine that the need for iron lungs declined. When asked who owned the vaccine patent, Salk famously answered, “Well, the people, I would say. There is no patent. Could you patent the sun?” 7/7

On the shore of Lake Tiktalik in Canada’s Western Arctic, the thawing permafrost had set off two huge landslides into the water. These “thaw slumps” could turn the Indigenous residents of Tuktoyaktuk into Canada’s first climate refugees.

Spain has introduced a new law to protect workers who are victims of natural disasters or climate related crisis. If people are told to stay at home by civil protection agencies and can’t get to work safely, they will now be able to take four days of paid leave.

It's time to discuss one of the perennial debates of the holiday season. Are real Christmas trees or their fake counterparts more eco-friendly?
O Christmas tree, O Christmas tree, which is more sustainable: real or plasticky?

It was nice and quiet here for a while. And then the hordes came, and it's noisy and boring and full of angry people already. Sigh.

Just added into stock this morning. ( Yes we're adding stock on a Sunday)
Ellis Peters 1913-1995 is best known for her series of 20 medieval Brother Cadfael novels, which were the basis for the ITV series with Derek Jacobi. Hugely popular, clever books and inspiration for many other crime writers.
