In Houston, Texas, everything is bigger, including the city’s problem with PPE litter.Many of the masks, gloves, and bottles of hand sanitizer being used to protect people during the pandemic aren’t being disposed of properly and some are worried it’s becoming a health hazard.Now, city leaders are taking matters into their own hands while trying to take PPE litter off the street“I know that they say everything is bigger in Texas but we definitely don’t want to be known for a big litter problem,” said Martha Castex-Tatum, Houston’s Vice Mayor Pro-Tem, who is helping launch the city’s new anti-PPE littering campaign.“It’s not only unsightly but it’s also a health issue,” she said. “If the PPE is contaminated, we don’t want other people touching it.”Castex-Tatum says stopping litter before it starts could save money in the long run.“It’s always expensive to pick up litter,” she said. “For instance, this PPE litter ends up in our drains. The city of Houston, we spend million a year cleaning out our drains.”Down the drains and into waterways, where the health impacts could be significant.“Unlike sewage systems, storm water is untreated and it flows directly into our lakes and our rivers and our oceans. There’s no intermediate treatment,” said Rachel Meidl, LP.D., CHMM, a fellow in energy and environment at Rice Univeristy. She says trash attracts trash and that PPE litter is a problem, not only in Houston but around the world.“As it concerns the pandemic, it’s how do we manage it,” Meidl asked.For some Houstonians, the answer to that question is simple.“It takes five seconds of your time to find a trash can,” one local man said about properly disposing PPE. “Just do it.”Just do it: another famous slogan from another famous campaign, something Castex-Tatum hopes Houston can replicate.“It’s important for people to know the message the message that we are trying to send with the anti-litter campaign,” she said.That message is clear: don’t let Houston go to waste.“I hope this inspires other cities across the country to also kick off anti-litter campaign,” Castex-Tatum said. 2113

It’s been a long year. Pandemic, wildfires, murder hornets, and now the 2020 election.And if you thought we might get a civilized discussion of the issues, well, that remains a challenge.If you think you’re the only one feeling stressed out by the election, a study conducted by The American Psychological Association shows 52% of Americans feel the same way.“For a lot of people, this election has become so emotional, so existential, and that’s real, that’s very, very real to them,” said Kelly Hupfeld, a professor at Colorado University Denver.“It’s kind of on par with 2020, but it definitely has it’s own individual, independent impact other than the coronavirus and other sort of social unrest that’s been going on,” said Lisa Henderson, a licensed counselor in Tennessee.Henderson says she’s seeing increased stress among her clients because of the election.“There’s this feeling of just helplessness, of you know, things are going on and I can’t really do much about it and sure I can vote, but right now, I think we’re about a month away from that,” said Henderson.And the way the candidates are acting probably isn’t helping“We just watched a really uncomfortable social conflict, and it was nerve wracking for a lot of us,” said Hupfeld. So, maybe you’re feeling stressed, but what are the signs you may be dealing with something more concerning.“If you’re mind is racing with thoughts you don’t really have control over anymore, so that it becomes kind of impossible for you to be able to calm yourself, that can be a sign that anxiety is really getting out of control,” said Hupfeld.According to the mayo clinic, these are some of the signs of an anxiety disorder.Feeling nervous, restless or tenseHaving a sense of impending danger, panic or doomTrouble concentrating or thinking about anything other than the present worrytrouble sleepingHaving difficulty controlling worrySo what can you do if you’re feeling like this?“You can turn your television off, you don’t have to watch it. Similarly to Thanksgiving, you can actually get up from the table, you don’t have to stay,” said Henderson.If watching a debate or constantly getting news updates makes you feel stressed, take a break from the news, social media, and other things that trigger stress.Henerson also suggests asking yourself a question.“How does this impact me right now?” said Henderson.Henderson says these are big issues that do affect all of us, but it’s unlikely to change your day to day right away, so don’t let the stress impact your day to day either.“Really evaluate sort of an in the moment type of way, what impact does this have on me? Today, what is this going to impact?” said Henderson.One of the most important things you can do, seek help if you’re feeling like this. The National Alliance on Mental Illness helpline number is 1-800-950-6264. You can call to find a therapist or mental health professional in your area. 2925

Indonesian police have vowed to crackdown on the distribution of bootleg alcohol, as deaths this month connected to the consumption of illegally produced toxic liquor exceeded 86.The majority of the deaths were in the province of West Java, but have also been reported in the capital Jakarta, and South Kalimantan, said national police spokesman Inspector General Setyo Wasisto."They (bootleggers and their distributors) are part of a close knit community. Sometimes, when police come to check on a tip they have already put the bootleg alcohol away. They know who their customers are when they come. It's much like a clandestine narcotics network," Setyo said."In the past, bootleg alcohol was found to be a mixture of alcohol and energy drinks. Some are a mix of pure alcohol, carbonated drinks and an ingredient used in anti-mosquito repellent."Police have promised to stamp out the scourge before the Islamic holy month of Ramadan beginning mid-May, with a new task force being created to handle the assignment.Seven people have been arrested so far in connection with the deaths, four in Jakarta and three in West Java province, said Argo Yuwono, a spokesman for South Jakarta police.In response to the recent spate of poisonings, police have rounded-up sellers of bootleg alcohol in affected areas, and sent samples of seized liquor to the country's Drug and Food Control Agency for forensic evaluation, according to the state-run Antara news agency."We have taken the blood and urine samples along with that of the drink. They have been dispatched to the forensics laboratory, and we will get the results in three or four days," West Java Regional Police said at a Tuesday press conference.Preliminary investigations suggested sellers were adding cough medicine and anti-mosquito lotion to the alcohol.Indonesia has long grappled with the problem of fake or bootleg alcohol. According to official statistics, 300 people died from the consumption of unlicensed liquor between 2008 and 2013. Between 2014 and 2018, the figure was 500.Despite alcohol being legal in Indonesia, home-brew remains popular, especially in rural areas, where varieties such as "oplosan" are widely sold in clear plastic bags on street corners.The Jakarta Post reports the seized alcohol was found to contain substances such as energy drinks, syrup or carbonated drinks.West Java Governor Ahmad Heryawan said he was concerned by the growing death toll, and urged police to "pay full attention to this case," according to Antara.According to SafeProof, a group which lobbies against counterfeit alcohol, illegal liquor can be deadly "when other liquids like rubbing alcohol or methanol are added to the distilled spirit," enabling sellers to increase the amount of liquid and its potential potency.Methanol can make people feel inebriated, but even a very small amount can be toxic. Methanol poising can cause confusion, dizziness, drowsiness, headaches and the inability to coordinate muscle movements. It can prompt nausea, vomiting and heart or breathing failures, according to the US Center for Disease Control."The byproducts of methanol metabolism cause an accumulation of acid in the blood (metabolic acidosis), blindness, and death," a CDC report said.  3254
