While it's still May Day, here is the 2nd edition of my newsletter. It has a lot of content - too much to summarize - but over half of it is on the Earth Day theme: climate, environment, wildlife. A good entry point if you don't know much about my work:

@Katja_Thieme looking at it again, i think i might understand the second tweet to not be about preventative health things overall but specifically about research for disease cures, being funded by tax dollars and there being a 'pipeline' of how research works from funding through to results(?)

@muhammadshehad2 In Canada, there was a ruling against such monstrosity, saying the op-ed piece denying the starvation had violated journalistic standards of accuracy. It doesn't do much to correct the harm of their propaganda, but it is something, and something official.
4/ TL;DR "The Evidence Is Clear - There Is No Famine In Gaza" opinion article* is ruled to have misrepresented evidence and misled readers *Article was writen by Mike Fegelman of 'Honest Reporting Canada' and published by National Post (part of PostMedia chain).

@gidonsaar You are awaiting the day of justice for what you have enabled, Minister Sa'ar. What is your belief in justice?
"For 45 days I was blindfolded and on my knees." A Palestinian man from Gaza who was detained by Israeli forces explains his ordeal of being tortured under Israeli captivity. Ibrahim Mohammad Khaleel al-Shaweesh, who was released in a very poor state of health, says Israeli forces used all forms of torture, including electricity and dogs.
