In Basra in Iraq, people get poisoned with polluted water. Every day, 4,000 people are hospitalised after drinking or simply touching it.

"Work from Home to Beat Putin" - Or Halt Disastrous Energy Crisis in Europe? You decide:
The EU has called on citizens to drive less, don't bother with aircon or heating and work from home as much as possible. The new 'drive' is all about cutting dependence on Russian energy.
While European nations struggle to find an alternative supplier, it is instead asking citizens to make major cutbacks in a plan called "Playing My Part." Here's what it entails:
โช๏ธHeat homes less in winter, keep air conditioning down in summer
โช๏ธDrive slower on highways, restrict car aircon (uses fuel)
โช๏ธUse the train instead of plane
โช๏ธTake public transport, walk or cycle
โช๏ธPromote car-free Sundays
So tighten the screw on Russia, by being cold in winter and too hot in summer. Oh, and forget you ever had a car!

Philadelphia Changes Course on Mask Mandate
Philadelphia is ending its indoor mask mandate in a rapid U-turn - after reinstating it just days ago due to a spike in Covid-19 infections.
The Board of Health voted Thursday to rescind the mandate, reportedly due to โdecreasing hospitalizations and a leveling of case counts.โ
The mandate went into effect Monday, but the health department didn't release any data to back up its decision to reverse.
Mask on, mask off.
