济南女性尿酸为4是什么原因(山东痛风什么情况需要住院) (今日更新中)

The smoke is so thick, at times the Cessna airplane had to climb to stay out of it. At times your eyes burn and you close the air vents to keep the cabin habitable. Sometimes it is so bad, it is hard to see how bad it actually is on the ground below.Flying above the Amazon's worst afflicted state (during last week), Rondonia, is exhausting mostly because of the endless scale of the devastation. At first, smoke disguised the constant stream of torched fields, and copses; of winding roads that weaved into nothing but ash. Below, the orange specks of a tiny fire might still rage, but much of the land appeared a mausoleum of the forest that once graced it."This is not just a forest that is burning," said Rosana Villar of Greenpeace, who helped CNN arrange its flight over the damaged and burning areas. "This is almost a cemetery. Because all you can see is death."The stark reality of the destruction is otherworldly: like a vision conjured by an alarmist to warn of what may come if the world doesn't address its climate crisis now. Yet it is real, and here, and now, and below us as we are scorched by the sun above and smoldering land below.Rondonia has 6,436 fires burning so far this year in it, according to Brazil's National Institute for Space Research (INPE). NASA says the state has become one of the most deforested states in the Amazon. Brazil has 85% more fires burning than this time last year -- up to 80,626 nationwide as of Sunday night.President Jair Bolsonaro, after being scolded, called a liar, and threatened with trade sanctions by some leaders of the G7, declared on Friday he would send 43,000 troops to combat the Amazon's inferno. (He had previously fired the director of INPE for releasing figures he didn't agree with, and in his Friday speech still said the Amazon should be used to enrich Brazil's people).Yet while the Amazonian city of Porto Velho reels from a cloud of smoke that blights its mornings, and from the occasional C130 cargo plane buzzing overhead, the forest around it that we flew over showed no sign of an increased military presence Sunday.The task is enormous, almost insurmountable. In the areas where the smoke is most intense, the sun barely creeps through to shine off the river. I saw one bird in this natural sanctuary in three hours. Flames seem to move in a steadfast line across the savannah, swallowing whole what forest remains in their path.There are the occasional buildings, isolated in the newly created farmland around them. But no signs of human life, just cattle, caught in the swirling clouds and flame. They are often the reason for the fires: the rush to deforest sparked by a growing global market for beef. Cattle need soy grown on the fields, or to graze on the grass, and then become the beef Brazil sells to China, now a trade war with the United States has changed the market.The reason for the fires is disputed, but not that convincingly from this height. Bolsonaro has said that they are part of the usual annual burn, in this, the dry season. But his critics, many of them scientists, have noted the government's policy of encouraging deforestation has boosted both the land clearance that helps fires rage, and given the less scrupulous farmer license to burn.As the rate of land clearance reaches one and a half football fields a minute -- the statistics for the damage done to the forest emulate the incomprehensible mystery of its vanishing beauty -- many analysts fear a tipping point is nearing.The more forest is cleared, the less moisture is held beneath its canopy, and the drier the land gets. The drier the land gets, the more susceptible it is to fire. The more fire, the less forest. A self-fulfilling cycle has already begun. The question is when it becomes irreversible.Brazil is already dealing with the likelihood of permanent changes to its ecology. "The Amazon is extremely fundamental for the water system all over the continent," said Villar from Greenpeace. "So if we cut off the forest we are some years not going to have rain on the south of the country."It is hard to see any claims of future doom as alarmist, when you see skylines rendered invisible by smoke, flames march across the plains like lava, and hear disinterested taxi drivers tell you they have never seen it so bad. The apocalyptic future is here, and it is impatient. 4359

Thousands took to social media on Tuesday to show solidarity with the Black Lives Matters movement by participating in Blackout Tuesday — but leaders are asking participants not to use hashtags associated with the movement. Blackout Tuesday was originally planned as a protest for those in the music industry in response to the death of George Floyd. Floyd died in Minneapolis police custody on Memorial Day, and bystadner video showed an officer kneeling on Floyd's neck. Officer Derek Chauvin has been charged with murder in connection with his death.According to Rolling Stone, artists, producers and executives in the music industry originally called for June 2 to be a day to "not conduct business as usual" and instead use the day to support the black community.

The Senate is set to vote Monday on two competing disaster relief bills, neither of which is expected to pass, according to aides in both parties.The first vote, scheduled for 5:30 p.m. ET, is on whether to advance GOP legislation authored by Senate Appropriations Chairman Richard Shelby. It would allocate roughly .5 billion for rebuilding and recovery from natural disasters such as tornadoes, earthquakes, hurricanes and wildfires. The legislation includes 0 million to pay for nutrition assistance for Puerto Rico. If it fails to advance, senators will vote on a disaster relief package passed by the Democratic-controlled House months ago.Democrats oppose the Republican Senate proposal in part, because they argue it does not include enough aid for hurricane-ravaged Puerto Rico. Republicans, meanwhile, have criticized Democrats for their opposition by pointing to the fact that the House-passed legislation does not include relief for recent flooding that has devastated the Midwest.The votes will put both Democrats and Republicans in a position of political peril as opposition to either measure opens up lawmakers to attacks from the opposing party accusing them of putting American citizens at risk by failing to green-light needed disaster relief.Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell called the House bill a "non-starter" in remarks on the Senate floor on Monday because, he said, it provides "nothing for Midwest flooding."Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer attacked the GOP position in advance of the vote Monday."Republican senators are attempting to strip away recovery funds from Puerto Rico and other territories from the disaster package that passed the House," Schumer said on the Senate floor on Monday. The top Senate Democrat described the administration's response to the devastating impact hurricanes have had on Puerto Rico as "cruel" and "nasty," and said, "President Trump tweets while Puerto Rico suffers."President Donald Trump worked to put pressure on Democrats, saying on Twitter that "Democrats should stop fighting" the Republican legislation and claiming that they are "blocking funding and relief for our great farmers and rural America.Democrats, however, have argued that the GOP relief effort provides insufficient funding for Puerto Rico because it fails to include a variety of measures that were part of the roughly .2 billion relief package passed by Democrats who control the House in January. Those measures include state revolving funds that could be used by Puerto Rico to rebuild water systems that have sustained damage as well as a 100% cost share for the Federal Emergency Management Agency that Democrats say would unlock federal aid for Puerto Rico.Senate Democrats must now decide to whether to block the billion-dollar package over their concerns.Partisan tensions over the issue of funding for Puerto Rico became further inflamed last week after the President again 2954

Toni Morrison, author of seminal works of literature on the black experience such as "Beloved," "Song of Solomon" and "Sula" and the first African-American woman to win a Nobel Prize, has died, her publisher Knopf confirmed to CNN.She was 88.Morrison's novels gazed unflinchingly on the lives of African Americans and told their stories with a singular lyricism, from the post-Civil War maelstrom of "Beloved" to the colonial setting of "A Mercy" to the modern yet classic dilemmas depicted in her 11th novel, "God Help the Child."Her talent for intertwining the stark realities of black life with hints of magical realism and breathtaking prose gained Morrison a loyal literary following. She was lauded for her ability to mount complex characters and build historically dense worlds distant in time yet eerily familiar to the modern reader.Themes such as slavery, misogyny, colorism and supernaturalism came to life in her hands.A decorated novelist, editor and educator -- among other prestigious academic appointments, she was a professor emeritus at Princeton University -- Morrison said writing was the state in which she found true freedom."I know how to write forever. I don't think I could have happily stayed here in the world if I did n't not have a way of thinking about it, which is what writing is for me. It's control. Nobody tells me what to do. It's mine, it''s free, and it's a way of thinking. It's pure knowledge," Morrison said.The words of othersMorrison, who was nearly 40 when she published her first novel in 1970, wasn't an overnight success.The author was born Chloe Anthony Wofford on February 18, 1931, in Lorain, Ohio, the daughter of George and Ella Ramah Wofford, whom she often credited with instilling in her a love of the arts.A strong and prolific reader as a child, Morrison studied Latin and devoured European literature.Growing up in Lorain, Morrison has said, she played and attended school with children of various backgrounds, many of them immigrants. Race and racism were not the overriding concerns in her childhood that they would become in her books."When I was in first grade, nobody thought I was inferior. I was the only black in the class and the only child who could read," she once told the 2255
