I just can hardly take it! Everything Trump does boils my blood. Now he's capitulating to Putin over Ukraine. He wants to just take over Gaza and kick the Palestinians out. I want to ignore the news, but I can't take my eyes off the disasters unfolding. Anyone else feel the same way?

In Israele sono entrate in vigore delle leggi che vietano all’UNRWA, l’agenzia delle Nazioni Unite che si occupa di fornire assistenza umanitaria ai profughi palestinesi, di operare nel paese. Ci sono incertezze su come la legge verrà applicata in Israele e soprattutto nei territori occupati:

It's time for mostly vegetarian diets to minimize farming effects on water supplies. I have been practicing this for myself for over 30 years. It's not as hard as you think!
The agricultural industry is responsible for 70 percent of freshwater withdrawals globally, intensifying water scarcity and fueling wildfire risks.

A mother orca, known as Tahlequah or J35, has been seen carrying the carcass of her calf, just as she did in 2018 — when she spent 17 days carrying another dead calf. “It’s so much harder to see now that she has lost another one,” one scientist said.

Octopuses have around 500 million neurons - similar to a rabbit or turkey. Over half are in "mini-brains" in their arms. How does this unique neural structure impact their intelligence?
Octopuses and their relatives are a new animal welfare frontier − here’s what scientists know about consciousness in these unique creatures
Animal welfare laws don’t protect invertebrates, but there’s evidence that some, such as octopuses, are as intelligent as many mammals – even if their cognition takes very different forms.
