On July 28, 1915, the US invaded Haiti, starting a brutal 19-year occupation of the country. Conducted for selfish economic reasons and racist motives, the US waged two brutal wars against the native population, murdering thousands. American corporations were unable to accept Haitian independence while racist elements in US society, including slave owners, had never forgiven Haitians for launching the first successful Black rebellion against slavery. Even when US troops left in 1934, Washington retained influence over Haiti’s finances until 1947. Read on.

Good Idea: Natural Reforestation
https://www.conservation.org/press-releases/2024/07/24/new-research-reforestation-is-more-cost-effective-than-previously-understood-study-compares-reforestation-methods
A new study found that reforestation is much cheaper and more effective at removing carbon from the air than we thought, especially if we let forests grow back naturally. This method can capture more carbon for less money in almost half of all suitable areas. By mixing natural regrowth with traditional tree-planting, we can boost carbon removal by about 40%, helping us tackle climate change more effectively and affordably.

“The opportunity for low-cost reforestation appears much more plentiful than previously thought; this suggests reforestation projects are worth a second look by communities that might have prejudged them to be cost prohibitive,” said Busch. “While reforestation can’t be the only solution to climate change, our findings suggest it should be a bigger piece of the puzzle than previously thought.”

New Research: Reforestation is More Cost-Effective than Previously Understood; Study Compares Reforestation Methods
Nearly half of all viable tree-planting locations would be more cost-effective at reducing emissions if forests were restored using a “natural regeneration” approachARLINGTON, Va.

Don't bomb Beirut: U.S. leads push to rein in Israel's response
The United States is leading a diplomatic dash to deter Israel from striking Lebanon's capital Beirut or major civil infrastructure in response to a deadly rocket attack on the Golan Heights, five people with knowledge of the drive said.
Washington is racing to avert a full-blown war between Israel and the Iranian-backed Lebanese movement Hezbollah after the attack on the Israeli-occupied Golan killed 12 youths at the weekend, according to the five people who include Lebanese and Iranian officials plus Middle Eastern and European diplomats. read more
