"It’s a date that should go down in history — a stain on our collective conscience. On June 14th, 2023, the Adriana, a fishing boat carrying 750 people, capsized in the Mediterranean. The more than 600 deaths were entirely preventable. And yet the world barely flinched."

Yeah, it was in the news, but considerably less attention was paid to this event where hundreds died compared to a few rich people who spent exorbitant amounts of money to look at a shipwreck on a TV screen in an unsafe submersible.

A pretty dismal reflection on our societal values.

If predictions about the impacts of climate change are correct, this is just the beginning.

We should all think about how close we are to being a refugee. Maybe a wildfire, a flood, a drought, a disease, a sudden war. Don't feel guilt for not caring enough about others, feel empathy because this could happen to any of us. And treat others accordingly

( and maybe think about eating the rich )

Thank you for posting this. If the media won't care, we can.

Another depressing read.

Dead link?
