The bodies of nearly 50 people have been uncovered from two mass graves in Libya’s southeastern desert. @AlJazeera reports:
The new #Trump White House on Monday said that President Trump would withdraw the #UnitedStates from the #ParisAgreement, the pact among almost all nations to fight #ClimateChange.
By withdrawing, the US would join #Iran, #Libya & #Yemen as the only 4 countries not party to the agreement, under which nations work together to keep #GlobalWarming below levels that could lead to to #environmental catastrophe.

I'm not aware of any nations where Muslims are attacked for their religion.
Except in #China.
But for many observers, “Protecting the Nation From Foreign Terrorist Entry Into the United States” would go down as…the #MuslimBan.
Touted as an anti-terrorism measure, the first iteration of #Trump’s travel ban on foreigners from 7 #Muslim-majority countries—#Iraq, #Iran, #Libya, #Somalia, #Sudan, #Syria, & #Yemen—was a watershed moment.

State of Global Water Resources 2023
Fueled by heat, 2023 saw unprecedented extreme events in many parts of the world. #Heatwaves hit #Europe, North #America and #China, while #Canada faced its most extreme #wildfire season ever recorded, with over 14.9 million ha destroyed by #fire. In #Libya, intense #rainfall led to the collapse of three dams, with over 4 700 people losing their lives and 8000 people considered missing...

Treviso, il nipote Aldo ha ricostruito la storia del nonno morto nel 2014. Dalla passione per la marcia fino all'apertura di un'azienda a Bergamo

Libia, riserve congelate per 84 miliardi e banche alla paralisi: perché è una bomba a tempo (anche per i migranti)
Swift è la rete detenuta in gran parte da grandi banche occidentali. Chi è tagliato fuori, come oggi lo sono molte banche russe, è in gran parte fuori dalle transazioni internazionali e non può operare nelle principali valute
Translated:
Libya: 84 billion frozen reserves and paralyzed banks: why it's a ticking bomb (even for migrants).
Swift is a network largely owned by large Western banks. Those cut off, like many Russian banks are today, are largely excluded from international transactions and cannot operate in major currencies.

Illegal organ #traffickers in #Africa prey on world's poor
#Illegal #organ trafficking is growing across Africa. The sophisticated operation is worth over $1 billion annually and targets the vulnerable. Lack of regulation and huge demand for #organs drive the trade.

By relying on the #knowledge that's long been known, rather than the "just because we can" arrogance of #capitalism, we can stop the long, slow, and now imminent #suicide of our #species.
#Libya is far from the only place where #dam collapse has directly caused large human death tolls.
Thoughtless #engineering has destroyed communities and #habitats across the globe.
Everything, Everywhere, All at Once #ClimateChange mitigation includes better dams, or maybe none.
