"Extreme heat is a powerful risk multiplier and currently threatens the livelihoods of 1.23 billion #people. Extreme heat damages #crops,
stresses #livestock, depletes #fisheries and increases the risk of #wildfires. #Agricultural #workers are 35 times more likely to die from #occupational
#heat #exposure than all workers combined in other sectors. This double blow of #health #risks and
#productivity #loss disproportionately burdens #rural #women "

I wrote a few (read: too many) words about the ancient art of bracketing 😉 and this is the photo that goes with the article — made last month on a trail near our house when a lovely foggy morning brought temporary relief from the March heatwave here in Southern California.

Scientists are working to find common links among #younger #adults who develop #rectal #cancer as they reach their 30s and 40s.

It seems the bulk of such cancers leading the surge in cases today are not hereditary. An #exposure to increase the #risk likely occurred in the #1960s or #1970s

WIST Quotations Apr 23

A quotation from Lincoln

Slavery is doomed, and that within a few years. Even Judge Douglas admits it to be an evil, and an evil can’t stand discussion. In discussing it we have taught a great many thousands of people to hate it who had never given it a thought before. What kills the skunk is the publicity it gives itself. What a skunk wants to do is to keep snug under the barn in daytime, when men are around with shotguns.

Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865) American lawyer, politician, US President (1861-65)
Interview (1859-09-17?) with David R. Locke, Columbus, Ohio
