A study published in the journal Nature Climate Change reveals that the richest 10% of the global population is responsible for two-thirds of climate warming since 1990. According to the research, which analyzed economic data alongside climate models, this elite group emits nearly seven times the emissions of the lower 90%. The top 1% alone contributes 20 times as much as the other 99% combined. Lead researcher Carl-Friedrich Schleussner emphasized that addressing the imbalance in emissions is crucial for effective climate action. The study found that since 2019, the wealthiest 10% accounted for nearly half of global emissions from private consumption and investments, while the poorest half contributed only 10%. This research highlights the profound connection between wealth accumulation and environmental degradation, suggesting that if emissions mirrored those of the bottom 50%, substantial progress on climate change would have been made. The findings underline the necessity for systemic change targeting the wealthy to tackle the climate crisis effectively, rather than solely relying on individual consumer behaviors.

In a controversial statement, Stephen Miller, deputy chief of staff for policy in the Trump administration, revealed that the White House is "actively looking at" the possibility of suspending habeas corpus. This right allows individuals to challenge the legality of their detention. Miller's remarks follow President Donald Trump's consideration of extreme measures to tackle illegal immigration in the United States. Miller indicated that the Constitution permits suspension of this privilege during times of invasion, suggesting that the administration's response would depend on how federal courts rule on immigration-related issues. "If judges fail to make Team Trump happy," he stated, alternative measures might be explored. Legal experts, including MSNBC correspondent Lisa Rubin and Georgetown University law professor Steve Vladeck, criticized Miller's approach as unconstitutional. They emphasized that the Suspension Clause applies only in cases of rebellion or invasion and cannot be unilaterally imposed by the President, especially while Congress is in session. The conversation has ignited concerns about the direction of U.S. immigration policy and the implications for civil liberties.

A groundbreaking immunotherapy, termed immunoablative therapy, has shown remarkable success, with 84 out of 100 participants experiencing complete cancer remission. This treatment focuses on patients with a specific genetic mutation, called mismatch repair deficiency, which enhances their response to the therapy using a humanized mouse antibody known as dostarlimab. According to the research published in the New England Journal of Medicine, 80% of participants, who had cancer types such as esophageal, stomach, colon, liver, bladder, uterus, and prostate cancers, saw their tumors vanish. Patients like 71-year-old Maureen Sideris, who was diagnosed with gastroesophageal cancer, report feeling rejuvenated post-treatment. Sideris remarked, “The cancer has disappeared in my PET images and biopsies,” while oncologist Luis Alberto Díaz emphasized the therapy’s potential to spare patients from more aggressive treatments like chemotherapy and surgery. The therapy costs approximately $55,000 per patient, but Díaz notes it can ultimately reduce overall healthcare costs. Researchers stress that long-term benefits are still being evaluated, particularly for non-rectal cancer cases.
