Brazil has abolished a large reserve in the Amazon, exposing it to deforestation which will destroy it forever.

Saboteurs in the US have presented supposed reasons for "reviewing" US national monuments. They are bogus.

The economic analysis makes the frequent economic error of measuring the "health of the economy" by totals, or equivalently per-capita figures. This is a fallacy because it disregards the harm done by inequality.

However, the article's point is valid nonetheless.
