A tax to contain the global warming To try to limit the global warming, it would be necessary to establish a progressive tax on wealth and investments very much oriented towards the intensive exploitation of coal, at least according to a study that underlines how the responsibility for global warming in about thirty years is due to the richest ten percent of the richest people on the planet, mainly rich Chinese and Americans who if combined, account for almost half of global emissions. Particular attention should be paid to how much financial investments affect the climate issue rather than dwelling only on lifestyles and personal consumption. The group of so-called responsible could also be further reduced; in fact, it seems that almost a third of the "super-ultra" rich are in the United States, more than China, India and Germany combined. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: May 09, 2025

 Floods in Petra in Jordan The well-known tourist resort of Petra was suddenly flooded by a cloudburst, there is talk of at least one victim (a Belgian tourist) and about eighteen hundred people evacuated by the Jordanian authorities who organized rescues; tourists visiting the monumental attractions carved into the rock have often been forced to find, not without difficulty and inconvenience, a refuge from the torrents of water that have invaded the characteristic gorges of the place. It should be noted changing the subject but remaining on naturalistic issues that a study carried out in Canada would have highlighted how public notices regarding the progress of the fire season could avoid trips to hospital for asthma patients, in practice it is information relating to air quality, to take the appropriate medicines, to equip oneself with air purifiers up to high-flow oxygen dispensers. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: May 06, 2025 n°: 5941 Truly destructive fire in Israel It is considered by some to be one of the most destructive fires in the history of Israel, the one that has been devouring the woods near Mesilat Zion and not far from Jerusalem for a few days, favored by high temperatures, wind and drought; there is talk of mass evacuations, problems with traffic management, injuries due to intoxication and international mobilization. The authorities say that most of the fires are under control, but the extinguished and still smoking fires could regain strength and other firefighter interventions are not ruled out while the causes are investigated. The Eshkol forest and the hills west of the capital Jerusalem were particularly affected with residential areas affected by the columns of smoke that emanated from the high fires; the question is generally how the region will be able to cope with heat waves and extreme droughts linked to climate change. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: May 02, 2025 n°: 5938 Ecotourism and low environmental impact navigation Accelerating action to protect the oceans is the goal of a conference to be held in Busan, South Korea, which aims to increase the resources to be allocated to safeguard thirty percent of the seas by 2030, also in preparation for the COP30 scheduled for November to be held in Brazil in order to integrate solutions designed for the oceans with other ecological actions. Some talk about how to encourage ecotourism, renewable energy, sustainable development and low environmental impact shipping to achieve good economic potential. It should be noted changing the subject but remaining on naturalistic issues that Turkish seismologists affirm the uncertainty regarding the monitored data relating to a recent earthquake of magnitude 6.2 in the region of Istanbul and the Sea of Marmara, which could perhaps be the precursors of a future stronger earthquake. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Apr 28, 2025 n°: 5935 Strong overheating trauma for corals The coral recovery window is closing, at least in the opinion of experts who argue that if heat waves occur at an increasingly short distance corals in the planet’s seas do not have time to recover and it is estimated that the eighty-four percent of the world’s coral reefs have suffered the worst bleaching episode ever recorded. It is an essential ecosystem that suffers the consequences of human activities with a warming warming oceans and that, for example, since 2023 has affected the Pacific, Indian and Atlantic oceans with values about the temperatures reached from record. In some regions there is talk of the disappearance of many species that live in coral reefs even until total disappearance, it is estimated that with an overheating of one and a half degrees Celsius from seventy to ninety percent of the corals could disappear, a very undesirable prospect. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Apr 24, 2025 n°: 5933 Still partial bad weather in areas of North Italy It rains in some areas recently hit by a tropical cyclone, with various damage to infrastructure and cultivated fields, characterized by heavy rainy rainfall and there is concern in Lombardy and Emilia Romagna for the level of the Po river with red alert for the hydrogeological risk even if for the moment the situation would seem under control and only of flood areas have been submerged, then there is talk of alert also for Sardinia. It should be noted that for the fall of a cabin from the cable car that leads to Mount Faito in Castellammare di Stabia in Campania region some of the various hypotheses also speak of the wind, opened a commission of inquiry; restored the energy to the buildings where the tow rope near the cables of the high voltage had fallen, then it seems that the damage could also be greater and the arm of a crane stopped the fall of the pulling cable. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Apr 21, 2025 n°: 5930 Not very reassuring to live in coastal areas Once having a house near the sea could have been a source of pride and almost a privilege but now with the rise of the seas, the erosion of the coasts and the storms has become risky, then generally it is estimated that forty percent of the world's population lives in coastal areas and it may be necessary to move more inside the territory. Some for some time have signaled how the vegetation of the coastal areas is suffering the waves of bad weather with strong storms and gusts of wind and the increasingly frequent storms full of salt weaken the plants and the aquifers often have traces of salt for infiltrations from the subsoil that damages the roots, then the increase in temperatures favors the proliferation of pathologies, insects and fungi. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Apr 17, 2025 n°: 5927 March on average very hot in Europe The average temperatures monitored in Europe would have reached a new record and also with a significant margin and this has caused extreme weather phenomena such as very intense rainfall in some areas and prolonged drought in others. Globally it seems that the month of March is in second place in the ranking, but these are still truly alarming data with a long series of months always above one and a half degrees of global average warming since humanity began to burn huge quantities of coal and other fossil fuels with the industrial era. Already 2023 was the first to be above one and a half degrees and this upward push in temperatures pushes into 2024 probably destined to reach a new record, despite the theoretically rebalancing influence of the cooler global current "la Nina". e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Apr 09, 2025 n°: 5920 An asteroid could fall on the Moon Calculations made on the new data obtained from a telescope announce that there could be a percentage of about four percent that a large asteroid could impact the Moon; therefore maybe not the Earth as previously thought, albeit with a low percentage (about one percent). The size of the asteroid is now estimated to be between fifty-three and sixty-seven meters, therefore larger than the threshold of fifty that activates planetary defense plans that provide for the development of one or more deflection missions; some say that it should already start now. It should be noted changing the subject but remaining on naturalistic issues that according to weather forecasts a drop in temperatures is expected in many European countries due to a cold air front from Finland, particularly affected the Balkans with a drop perhaps greater than ten Celsius degrees. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Apr 05, 2025 n°: 5917 Storm in Indiana in the United States Two people would be killed due to a storm that affected the state of Indiana in the United States, there is talk of damage in several counties and large areas remained evidence of electricity supply and many power lines fell, particularly affected by the strong wind vortex the Brown County; over seventy tornado warnings that have also partly affected Illinois. It should be noted changing the subject but remaining on naturalistic themes that the islands of Paros and Myconos in Greece in the Cyclades were lashed by an extreme weather event with the characteristics of a tropical phenomenon characterized by torrential rainfall, hailstorms and strong gusts of wind that transformed the roads into torrents in flood with cars dragged among debris of all kinds and mud, inconvenience for the population and chaos of services. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Apr 01, 2025 n°: 5913 Various and natural  ... ^ 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
