4 days ago | bloomberglinea.com | David Fickling |Luke Sharrett

Sin darnos cuenta, la humanidad ha alcanzado un hito notable: el consumo de alcohol ha entrado en un posible declive permanente. Este es un punto de inflexión en un hábito tan antiguo como la propia civilización. Durante milenios, hemos utilizado el alcohol para relajarnos en reuniones sociales, anestesiarnos del tedio de la vida o simplemente dar un toque especial a nuestros días.
DAVID FICKLING: Dead bees are a symptom of modern farming

1 week ago | indianagazette.com | David Fickling

It’s a recurring disaster that can seem like a biblical plague: bees cropping up covered in parasites, with deformed wings, or slaughtering their own larvae. Sometimes workers will vanish from the hive altogether, leaving the queen and her offspring abandoned, Mary Celeste-style. The coming months are shaping up to be an epic year for such devastation.

The rise of the honey bee has been a boon for agriculture, but not for the ecosystem. It’s a recurring disaster that can seem like a biblical plague: bees cropping up covered in parasites, with deformed wings, or slaughtering their own larvae. Sometimes workers will vanish from the hive altogether, leaving the queen and her offspring abandoned, Mary Celeste-style. The coming months are shaping up to be an epic year for such devastation.
