  1. The reactivation of air transport between Colombia and Venezuela, as part of the steps included in the reopening of the border between the two nations, will have to wait until further orders from the authorities of that country to become a reality. The foregoing after the airline Wingo confirmed, through a statement, that the Government of Venezuela asked it to suspend the start of its air operations, which were initially scheduled and authorized for October 4. (Also read: Why do US sanctions on Venezuela limit relations with Colombia?) "As we have been informed, this temporary suspension is pending to resolve issues between the Governments of Colombia and Venezuela on the airlines approved to carry out flights between the two countries," the company added. Due to the above, Wingo suspended the sale of tickets on the BogotΓ‘-Caracas-BogotΓ‘ route from this Saturday, September 24, and is awaiting the final decisions adopted by the authorities for its restart. (Also: NicolΓ‘s Maduro, the great absentee in the reopening of the border) "As soon as the Venezuelan authorities notify the airline when it will be able to resume the commercialization of routes between the two countries, the company will restart sales and inform the new flight start date," added the subsidiary company of the Copa Airlines group. Wingo, which had already sold more than 2,000 tickets, said that it will contact travelers who had already purchased tickets for this route in order to offer them driving alternatives and pointed out that it provides a message of calm to passengers affected by this momentary suspension. . (Also: This was the passage of the first truck from Colombia to Venezuela) Until now, Wingo was the only company that had approval from the National Institute of Civil Aeronautics (Inac) of Venezuela with permits not only operational but also commercial, which puts on hold the plans that Avianca and Latam Airlines have in this regard, whose proposed routes are still they do not have the approval of the air authority of that country. Inac's decision comes after the airline Conviasa cannot fly to Colombia because it is included in the so-called Clinton list, since any business relationship with airports, airport service companies and fuel distributors, among others, It may involve legal problems for these firms that at some point have commercial ties with the Venezuelan airline. "Wingo reiterates its commitment to air connectivity between Colombia and Venezuela, always within the terms and conditions determined by the two governments," he added. https://www.eltiempo.com/economia/sectores/venezuela-por-que-se-frena-la-reactivacion-aerea-con-colombia-705608
  2. The cacomixtle is key in the maintenance of the ecosystems in which it lives, since it controls pests and favors the growth of plants The cacomixtle is a mammal that could easily be confused with a feline, however, it is not. Precisely because of this incredible similarity, its name, of Nahuatl origin, alludes to this characteristic: Tlacomiztli (half feline). This small nocturnal animal has learned to live among human beings, without this being a product of domestication, since, in some places, urbanization has reached its habitat. This is what we know. We suggest: This is the vaquita marina, the Mexican porpoise that fights for its survival in the Sea of Cortez Cacomixtle: the β€œfeline half” of the night The first to describe the cacomixtle was the American, Elliott Coues. This in 1887. This author also proposed the term "bassarisk" to group the animals of this genus. The distribution of this mammal ranges from some southern states of the United States to the tropical forests of Central America. Two types can be found in Mexico: Bassariscus sumichrasti and Bassariscus astutus. As already mentioned, the cacomixtle is a small mammal. Its body can reach 40 centimeters, while its tail, by itself, is slightly longer due to the fact that it reaches almost half a meter. This animal is brown, normally, with a white belly and its tail is characterized by black rings that are distributed along it. It may interest you: This is the teporingo, the Mexican rabbit of the volcanoes Cacomixtles are also notable for their large eyes, which are surrounded by lighter fur. It is not usual for these animals to weigh more than a kilo and a half. Under the right conditions, these mammals can live up to seven years. Behavior and ecological importance Something that distinguishes cacomixtles is their ability to climb trees. To carry out this skill, these mammals use the balance that their tail gives them. Additionally, they have the ability to rotate their ankle more than 180 degrees. This ability makes them quite agile. Much of the time, the cacomixtle is in the trees. There, especially at night, it feeds on fruits, insects, rodents and small reptiles. On the other hand, it is preyed upon by coyotes, owls, raccoons, and bobcats. It may interest you: El Cielo Biosphere: a paradise of biodiversity The behavior of cacomixtles is that of a solitary animal. Most of the time, as was said, it is in the trees and in its burrows. It is only during the reproductive periods that these mammals come together. Gestation occurs between 45 and 50 days. Per litter there can be from 2 to 4 individuals. This mammal also plays an important role in preserving the ecosystems it inhabits. By feeding on fruits, the seeds, which are not destroyed in the digestive process, return to the ground, and with it, in the right conditions, nature regenerates itself. In addition, the cacomixtles, due to their diet, are pest controllers that, in their absence, would reduce the vegetation. https://www.ngenespanol.com/animales/cacomixtle-el-mitad-felino-que-caza-por-la-noche/
  3. The Paris motor show returns this year for the first time since 2018, following a Covid-enforced hiatus. The biennial motor show, which runs in parallel with the Frankfurt motor show, is a hub for several big European car reveals and debuts. It will open its doors to attendees and the world’s key vehicle manufacturers from 17-23 October. So, what will we see this year? Our comprehensive list previews all the biggest cars we can expect at the Parc des Expositions next month. Read on for our expected reveals in Paris Alpine concept We are eagerly awaiting Alpine’s appearance in Paris, and the French sports car maker has already confirmed it will reveal a new concept on home turf at this year’s show. It could be a preview of its planned all-electric replacement for the Alpine A110 sports car. The Alpine A110, a key Porsche 718 Cayman rival, will receive an all-electric successor in 2026. New Dacia branding Dacia will formally reveal its new brand identity in Paris, featuring a new logo, emblem and khaki green colour scheme. The new branding will appear on all new Dacia cars from the second half of 2022, meaning we’ll see the Dacia Sandero, Dacia Jogger and Dacia Duster all showcasing the firm’s new β€œsimplistic and artful mindset”. Dacia Manifesto Billed as a featherweight, all-terrain buggy, the Dacia Manifesto concept showcases several new technologies (but no doors, windows or windscreen). With four-wheel drive, large wheels and a raised stance, the Manifesto is also completely waterproof and is constructed from lightweight, sustainable materials. It’s similar in size to the Ariel Nomad, and Dacia says it’s a statement of intent - a technical showcase that the Romanian firm has called a β€œlab for ideas”. Work on the model began only in January, but it will be the star of its line-up in Paris. DS 3 facelift Changes to the DS 3 aren’t likely to be extensive, but it’s still expected to be an important car in Europe and especially in the firm’s home country of France. Paris seems like the best place for DS to showcase its stylish SUV, which will feature new design tweaks such as slimmer headlights, updated daytime-running lights and a general nip and tuck to bring the model more in line with the larger DS 7. Jeep Avenger The Jeep Avenger could be the firm’s biggest launch in years. Based on a new version of Stellantis’s ECMP platform also used for the new Vauxhall Mokka and DS 3, the all-electric baby SUV is the smallest car it has ever produced. https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/new-cars/paris-motor-show-2022-preview
  4. Four disputed referendums have ended in Russian-held parts of Ukraine - votes which Moscow may use as grounds to annex more territory. The votes were denounced as a sham by Ukraine's government and its Western allies, who regard them as stage-managed by the Kremlin. Votes were held in the breakaway eastern regions of Donetsk and Luhansk. Ballots in Russian-occupied parts of the southern regions of Kherson and Zaporizhzhia were also organised. In the absence of international recognition, the process was not monitored independently for ballot-rigging. Refugees scattered across Russia were also able to vote at dozens of polling stations, including in annexed Crimea. Early results from voting there indicated huge majorities in favour of joining Russia. Up to four million people were asked to vote in the war-torn regions, which make up about 15% of Ukraine's territory. Soldiers go door-to-door for votes in 'referendums' Final day of discredited polls in Russian-held Ukraine There is speculation that Russian President Vladimir Putin may announce the four regions' annexation in a speech to a joint session of Russia's parliament on Friday. In March 2014, he announced that Ukraine's Crimea Peninsula had joined Russia just a few days after a similarly unrecognised referendum was held. If Russia annexes the four regions, it could take the war to a new and more dangerous level, with Moscow portraying any attempt by Ukraine to regain them as an attack on its sovereign territory. The UK responded to the referendums with new sanctions targeting top Russian officials involved in enforcing the votes, while the US has warned Moscow it will impose further economic sanctions if it annexes more territory. Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba called on the EU to impose more sanctions on Russia in response to the votes, which he said would not change Ukraine's military plans. "It won't be enough to limit oneself to cosmetic economic measures," he said. "We need an extremely serious, effective response with specific things that will hit the Russian economy. The softer the reaction to the so-called referendums, the greater the motivation for Russia to escalate and annex further territories." Mr Putin defended the referendums, saying they were designed to stop the persecution of ethnic Russians and Russian-speakers by Ukraine - a charge the Ukrainian government denies. "Saving people in all the territories where this referendum is being held is at the top of our minds and the focus of attention of our entire society and country," the Russian leader said in televised remarks. The preliminary results of the four self-styled referendums will be of little surprise to anyone, least of all Ukraine. The announced 97%+ votes in favour of joining Russia are a continuation of the Kremlin's narrative of trying to "liberate" Ukrainians in those areas, as well as its attempts to legitimise its presence in the country. Ukraine and the West have discredited the process, and the BBC has heard evidence of armed soldiers collecting votes door to door, as well as claims of voting not being held at all. Russia is expected to draft quick, new laws around the annexation of these four contested territories, and has threatened the use of more lethal weapons if they are targeted in the future. What Kyiv has always said is that its objectives have not changed, regardless of the statements (and now results) which come from Moscow. Early voting took place over four days, as election officials escorted by soldiers visited people's homes. Polling stations only opened on Tuesday. "With my voice, I want to try to make a small contribution to stopping the war," Galina Korsakova, 63, from Donetsk told AFP news agency at a polling station in Crimea. "I really want to go home." The unrecognised plebiscites were held as the war raged on, and at least one election official was killed, in a missile attack in the Zaporizhzhia city of Berdyansk. Since Russia invaded Ukraine on 24 February, tens of thousands of combatants and civilians have been killed or injured, while whole cities and towns have been largely reduced to ruins. More than 7.4 million Ukrainians are currently recorded as refugees, including nearly 2.7 million in Russia, UN figures show. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-63052207

  7. The demonstrations this Monday, September 26, against the policies of President Gustavo Petro exceeded expectations. In the early hours of the day, sectors that defend the public policies of the first left-wing administration were ironic about the call they considered to be languid. (You can read: Why are they marching this September 26? Spokesman says that 'they do not intend to negotiate') Among the reasons they expressed were several facts: it is a government that is starting up until now, it is a working Monday and many considered that the country's foci were going to be placed on the border with Venezuela due to its official reopening. It even drew attention that well-known voices opposed to Petro asked to give him a waiting period. (You can read: Petro after border reopening: the closure is a suicide that should not be repeated) "I am not going to the march against Petro. It is premature and will minimize the march that already happened on election day when 10 million of us voted against him. The government's announcements are scandalous, however, even Petro deserves a reasonable waiting period," said Sergio AraΓΊjo Castro, who during the campaign had said he would fire employees who voted for Petro. "His right to express himself will always be respected. But we will always have the right to inform when he is misinformed. In general, the marches did not have violence," tweeted President Gustavo Petro. The mobilizations brought together hundreds of Colombians in the street. In the images seen by the media and social networks, it was appreciated that a good part of the leading role in the streets was of older people. Quite contrary to what happened during the social explosion that they were young. This shows the enormous difficulty in seeking political consensus between the two generations. "Despite the fact that the political moment is inopportune and that the Petro government is settling down, the opposition marches exceeded expectations," said analyst AndrΓ©s Segura. "Of course, they are a long way from reaching the levels of participation that the first demonstrations of 2019 or 2021 had, but considering that there is still no clear catalyst that drives people to leave, the number shows some principles of social organization that need to be taken into account by the Government. They cannot fall into the trap of underestimating the discomfort that exists in some sectors", assured the expert in political communication. (We recommend: March organizers say they are not seeking to negotiate with the Petro government) For Jairo Libreros, a professor at the Externado de Colombia University, "social mobilization is an indicator of the proper functioning of a liberal democracy and if this occurs without the police repression that occurred in the government of IvΓ‘n Duque, the democratic achievement is more important." ". Pierre Onzaga, one of the spokesmen for this march and who led the march against the FARC in 2008, explained why, in his opinion, people should leave. "Several of us citizens sat down to analyze all of Gustavo Petro's proposals for reforms: the tax reform, the Electoral Code, plus other reforms that he has been making and proposing in Congress, such as total peace and pension reform," he said. (We recommend: Gustavo Petro and Álvaro Uribe would meet this Tuesday to talk about the tax) "We found that there is one more intention to deinstitutionalize the country, to cut off freedom in some way, than really to bet on the development of Colombia. There is no intention to generate employment, there is no development plan behind the tax reform," assured. These concepts seem to have been picked up by the protesters, as can be seen from the signs carried by various protesters. Although analysts agree that it is difficult to make a balance of a government in such a short time -less than 50 days- they also say that in the Executive itself there are symptoms of management concern. That explains the summit of ministers and heads of communication of the different dependencies for this Thursday and that seeks to send a single message to the citizenry. Booksellers says that the National Government has time to rectify. He values what he has done, but notes that he is concerned that so many messages are creating confusion, an element that does not help in the execution of public policies and does contribute to undermining trust in institutions. "Unfortunately, confusion seems to be the current problem in the country. Having opened so many spaces for discussion β€”taxation, total peace, land distribution, oil, pensions, health, the labor market, etc.β€”in a simultaneous and disorderly manner, uncertainty has increased and there is a risk of losing confidence in institutions," wrote Carlos Caballero ArgΓ‘ez, Master of Science at the University of California at Berkeley and Master of Science in the editorial pages of this newspaper. in Public Affairs from Princeton University. "It is so devastating to see what is happening. I was looking at the numbers of the business opinion surveys collected by Fedesarrollo and we are already beginning to see a very great discouragement among businessmen and a decline in the investment climate. And, of course, the The economy is starting to slow down very quickly," said former Foreign Trade Minister and union leader Jorge Humberto Botero in an interview with journalist MarΓ­a Isabel Rueda, also in EL TIEMPO. "The message is clear, no one liked the left foot with which the government began. This is the true citizen thermometer. The streets speak," said Senator MarΓ­a Fernanda Cabal, who on her social networks showed videos of the mobilizations in several cities of the country. https://www.eltiempo.com/politica/gobierno/marchas-26-de-septiembre-contra-petro-por-que-superaron-las-expectativas-705302
  8. About 40% of the species that inhabit the planet could become extinct due to human activities Mass extinction is a problem that has alarmed scientists for decades. In a study published by the journal Nature in 2004, the effects that humanity had on the conservation of species warned of an alarming future. In such research, a prediction was made of the animals that would be affected over the next few decades. The authors concluded that 37% of species could be destined for extinction by 2050. According to the Red List of Endangered Species (IUCN), 28% of the sample participants are threatened with extinction. No natural home seems safe. Both the birds that have altered their migratory routes and their bodies, as well as the strange beings that inhabit the bottom of the ocean, have been victims of the changes in their habitats. "I THINK IT'S QUITE LIKELY," COMMENTS SCIENTIST NIC RAWLENCE OF A SIXTH MASS EXTINCTION. "AND, IF SPECIES DON'T BECOME GLOBALLY EXTINCT, THOSE WHICH CANNOT ADAPT TO OUR CHANGING WORLD ARE LIKELY TO SUFFER AREA DECREASE, SHARP PO[CENSORED]TION REDUCTIONS, AND END UP FUNCTIONALLY EXTINCTION," RAWLENCE EXPLAINED TO LIVE SCIENCE. What is a mass extinction? While some species evolve to survive changes in their ecosystems, others do not suffer the same fate and become extinct. More than 99% of the organisms that once inhabited the Earth, no longer exist. According to The Conversation, a mass extinction is a loss of about three quarters of the species that exist on the entire Earth in a "short" geological period. If we take into account the vast period of time that life has been evolving on our planet, "short" could be limited to everything that is less than 2.8 million years old β€œTHE CURRENT EXTINCTION CRISIS MAY NOT HAVE THE SCOPE OF THE BIG FIVE BUT IT IS DEFINITELY GOING THAT WAY IF NOTHING IS DONE TO STOP IT,” RAWLENCE SAYS. During the last 500 million years, the Earth has seen five mass extinctions and it is very likely that we are about to experience a sixth due to human activities. According to the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), endangered species are those whose po[CENSORED]tion has had a decrease of 80% to 90%. If the trend continues like this, it is likely that most of these species will not make it to the year 2050. https://www.ngenespanol.com/animales/extincion-masiva-2050/
  9. If you’re hoping for echoes of the BMW i3’s art deco design and originality in the new BMW iX1, you’ll be disappointed. Let’s face it, the iX1 is rather derivative-looking; as with the vast majority of its rivals, from the Audi Q4 e-tron to the Mercedes EQA and Lexus NX, it’s not ugly but it’s not pretty or even terribly memorable, either. Which is why we’ll actually start with the inside of the BMW iX1, because it’s here that it really makes an impact. Don’t worry, we’ll get to the 308bhp all-electric, four-wheel drive powertrain in just a moment. First, check out the curved touchscreen; a focal point in an interior that feels every bit as plush and high-class as that of an X3, and is deliberately reminiscent of the BMW iX. Complete with a 10.7-inch touchscreen and a 10.4-inch driver’s information screen, the operating system 8’s graphics are second to none. With wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as standard on ever iX1, native features such as the excellent nav will be defunct for most. If you do use them, the configurable shortcut icons on the touchscreen’s home page will be useful. Unfortunately, climate control is now done in-screen, but at least the controls are permanently visible and within easy reach, and the voice control is also one of the more reliable that we’ve tried. Overall, the comfort, perceived quality and material finish of the iX1’s interior is really quite something. It needs to be to justify a price of more than Β£52,000, which is teeth-suckingly high yet is also roughly on a par with equivalent rivals like the Mercedes EQA, Audi Q4 e-tron and Volvo XC40. It’s practical, too. The iX1 gets a useful 490 litre boot capacity and a cubby beneath the boot floor that’s big enough for a couple of cables, while the rear seats split and fold in a 40/20/40 format. The rear seatback also recline in a 60/40 split, but they don’t slide, as they do in the non plug-in X1 models that share this new β€˜UKL’ platform. In the iX1, the rear seats are fixed, and you also have a slightly higher floor in relation to the seat cushion, which can make rear passengers with longer legs feel like their knees are bent up a bit uncomfortably. Other than that, leg- and headroom are decent enough to make life easy for two adults sat on the rear bench. As for how it drives? We spent time in a pre-production car around BMW’s factory in Regensburg, and we can confirm that the iX1 is properly fast. As you’d expect, given the dual electric motors – one on each axle – which manage a combined 364lb ft. Even without Sport mode engaged the iX1 is seriously punchy. Engage Boost mode, which you do by pulling the paddle on the wheel, and you get 10-seconds of comical acceleration. Let’s face it, the Boost paddle is something of a gimmick, but it’s a fun one that can certainly help with the odd rapid overtake. If you do enjoy your weird gimmicks and electronica in modern cars, try the Energise mode. This is found in the drive modes, and brings with it a colourful, artistic wallpaper across the screen and gently pulsing background noise that sounds like a muted, metronomic strimmer. Accelerate hard, and this suddenly morphs into what could be mistaken for an augmented elephant being tortured. Odd. Anyway, back to the point - while it would lag behind the ever drag-ready Tesla Model Y, the BMW iX1 is a rapid family car, Boost mode or not. It’s not a terribly engaging one, though. We’re still waiting for an electric SUV to come along and handle as well as the Jaguar I-Pace, but none have managed it yet – and we include the iX1 in that. The xDrive four-wheel drive delivers huge grip and neutrality, and in faster direction changes you can feel it firing a bit more power to the back for a noticeably keener turn-in than you’ll enjoy on any of those aforementioned rivals. But even with that, the steering feels short on feel and feedback, and is a little anodyne in general. Weighted nicely and always predictable, but never offering the sense that this is a car that wants to be driven quickly. As such, the iX1 is a car that’s best enjoyed for its impressive refinement and confident, unflustered manners that make it wieldy around town or rock steady on a twisty road or in fast motorway stuff. Ride comfort on our car, which sat on 20-inch wheels, is a tad heavy-feeling. You can feel the suspension working to keep the body in check, and it thumps and shimmies over bigger potholes. Coarser surfaces or high-frequency imperfections aren’t such an issue, though, so it tends to feel relaxed and cohesive most of the time. It’s just a very easy car to drive, the iX1. Even the adaptive brake regen’ is mostly unobtrusive, while the β€˜B’ mode engages a one-pedal drive mode that can be useful and efficient around town. Talking of efficiency, the BMW iX1 has a healthy real-world range, in part thanks to a standard heat pump system and various efficiency tricks including a slippery drag coefficient of 0.26. As such, the official range is very good for a fairly modest 64.7kWh battery size. The water-cooled batteries will also be primed for faster rapid charging if you input a rapid charger into the nav, or you can simply tell the iX1 to get the batteries ready for rapid charging (25 degrees celsius is the ideal battery charging temperature, according to BMW’s battery experts) via the touchscreen menus. If you do get those ideal conditions, the iX1 will charge at up to 130kW for a 10-80% to-up in around 30 minutes. Overall, the iX1 is not the most engaging electric car to drive, but the interior finish, equipment, powertrain efficiency and general roominess still make it a seriously comprehensive and recommendable prospect. https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-review/bmw/ix1-0
  10. The Kremlin has admitted mistakes were made in its drive to mobilise Russian army reservists to fight in Ukraine, amid growing public opposition. "There are cases when the decree is violated," Russian President Vladimir Putin's spokesman said, adding that "all the errors will be corrected". Multiple reports say people with no military experience - or who are too old or disabled - are being called up. Last week's mobilisation decree has already triggered widespread protests. President Putin announced what he described as partial mobilisation on 21 September, with Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu later saying 300,000 reservists would be called up. However, reports in opposition Russian media suggested that up to one million people could be called up, pointing out that one paragraph believed to be about the exact number of the required reservists was omitted (classified) in the published version of Mr Putin's decree on the official Kremlin website. A number of military experts in the West and Ukraine say Mr Putin's decision to call up reservists shows that Russian troops are failing badly on the battlefield in Ukraine - more than seven months after Moscow launched its invasion. Since the mobilisation announcement, more than 2,000 people have been detained at protests across Russia. Hundreds arrested as Russian draft protests continue Russia reveals exemptions as men flee call-up What does Russian military call-up mean for Ukraine? At a briefing on Monday, Mr Putin's spokesman, Dmitry Peskov, conceded that mistakes were being made. He said that in some regions, "governors are actively working to rectify the situation". Mr Peskov also said he was unaware of any decisions to shut Russia's borders and impose martial law in the country. Media reports earlier suggested this could be done to stop potential recruits escaping abroad. Since the mobilisation was announced, many young Russians have been seeking to leave the country. Satellite images show lengthy queues of Russian cars on the border with Georgia. In the latest sign of growing public protest, a man critically injured an army recruitment officer in the Siberian city of Ust-llimsk on Monday. Footage has emerged on social media apparently showing the attacker approaching the officer and then shooting him. People in the building are then seen screaming and running in panic after the gunman shouted to them to flee. Over the weekend, people in Russia's Dagestan republic in the North Caucasus clashed with police over the mobilisation drive. More than 100 people were arrested during protests in the regional capital, Makhachkala, said OVD-Info, an independent Russian human rights monitor. There have also been reports of a number of arson attacks on recruitment centres and other administrative buildings across Russia. The BBC is not responsible for the content of external sites.View original tweet on Twitter In his announcement about the mobilisation last week, Mr Putin did not specify how many reservists would be called up. But speaking immediately after the president, Mr Shoigu said 300,000 reservists - people who have had military experience and required specialist skills - would be enlisted. The minister said this was just over 1% of Russia's 25 million military reserve potential. The process would be spread over several months. Certain age and disability limits would apply, the mobilisation decree said. It provided no further details. It is believed that males aged 18-60 - and in some cases even older - could be mobilised. Some Russian commentators immediately cast serious doubts on the promises of the president and his defence minister that the call-up would be limited. They pointed out that the decree said nothing about exceptions, such as not recruiting students or conscripts. They suggested this would be left to regional heads to decide who to call in order to meet quotas. On 24 September, Mr Putin issued a new decree specifically stating that students would be deferred from the draft. Before launching its invasion on 24 February, Russia had amassed about 190,000 troops along Ukraine's borders. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-63036985

  14. Mauricio Lizcano, director of the Administrative Department of the Presidency, Dapre, had to go out this Sunday to make some clarifications about the health reform that the government has announced that it will process. Also: You may be interested in: The slogan Faced with the accumulation of criticism and rumors about what the Government was preparing, Lizcano had to go out and tone down the situation. The official began by pointing out that the health reform is a topic for another year and clarified that what the Petro government has proposed "is to open an agreement on the system, being careful to always build something better." And to be even more forceful, he assured that "there are still no decisions made" nor the articles of the project to file before Congress. "We must be ready to give the debate on the EPS, I am ready, the EPS were created to be insurers (solid capital willing to take risk) however few fulfill that function, some used the capital to only be financial intermediaries", he stressed Lizcano. Regarding the health reform, Minister Carolina Corcho a few days ago highlighted that it will be presented next year and that it is expected that at the end of October or the first week of November, Colombians will know about it. This in an attempt by the Government to be transparent with citizens. Regarding intermediation in the system, the minister pointed out that β€œhealth is financed with contributions from workers and contributions from the Colombian tax budget. These resources must go directly to the hospitals, we cannot continue intermediating some resources, ”she questioned Corcho, and clarified that between 6 and 7 billion are paid for this intermediation. "We have to make every effort to protect patients and the provision of services. We are not going to do any harm, the damage has already been done, we are going to protect and overcome issues that should not have happened in this country", explained the minister who, To conclude, he assured that "we have that commitment to change, we are not going to betray it, we are not going to betray ourselves, and we are going to do it in the best way possible" https://www.eltiempo.com/politica/gobierno/reforma-de-la-salud-gobierno-dice-que-todavia-no-hay-decisiones-705071
  15. Recent research estimates that there may still be 10 individuals of the vaquita marina, the marine mammal closest to extinction. The French oceanographer, Jacques Cousteau, once called the Sea of Cortez β€œthe world's aquarium”, due to the great biological diversity that exists in that area. This corner of the Pacific Ocean is, indeed, one of the richest places in marine fauna. Despite this, fishing and other human activities have been putting the survival of many endemic species at high risk. This is the case of the vaquita marina. Vaquita marina, the endemic porpoise of the Gulf of California The vaquita porpoise is also known as the cochito, however its scientific name is Phocoena sinus. Phocoena comes from Latin and means "porpoise", while sinus refers to "cavity", which, in this case, is an allusion to the place of origin of this marine mammal: the Gulf of California. Porpoises are a species of marine mammals that belong to the group of cetaceans. Whales, dolphins and sperm whales are also part of this classification. There are seven species of porpoises, all of which are distinguished by being smaller compared to other animals in the same group, and by the shape of their teeth (flattened).

Consequently, it is also the smallest cetacean. The first descriptions of this animal come from the first half of the 20th century. These were the result of the discovery of some skulls seen in San Felipe, Baja California. But it was not until 1958 that he could be formally identified. Characteristics of the vaquita porpoise The description of this marine mammal is very peculiar. It is an animal that reaches 1.5 meters in length, in the case of females, and 1.4, in the case of males. Like the other porpoises, the vaquita porpoise is characterized by its robustness. Its head is rounded and its dorsal fin is high. Other hallmarks of this cetacean are the black spots around its eyes and lips. As for its colors, the back is dark gray, the sides are light gray and the belly is white. The Gulf of California porpoise is from shallow waters. According to Dr. MarΓ­a Luisa MartΓ­nez VΓ‘zquez, from the Institute of Ecology (INECOL), the vaquita porpoise never strays far from the coast and prefers warm currents. It is also an animal that moves in small groups (2 to 3 individuals). It uses echolocation to search for food and to detect the presence of predators. The Government mentions that the sexual maturity of this cetacean is reached at six years. Mating months are April and June. Fertility is, compared to other species, low. It is estimated that a female can give birth, throughout her life, to 5 or 7 offspring. The most endangered marine mammal Due to different factors, the vaquita has been in danger of extinction since 1996. The number of specimens of the species has been decreasing year after year, despite the work done in favor of its conservation. In 2022, a study by the University of California was published in which, among other data, it was mentioned that there must currently be 10 vaquitas. However, the same source makes it known that the remaining specimens are in good health, a fact that increases the chances of saving the species. It may interest you: What do whale forensics do? The main reason that is driving this marine mammal to extinction, according to the United Nations (UN), is the illegal fishing of totoaba. This is a fish that is also at high risk of disappearing, since it is traded clandestinely, especially in China, due to its healing and aphrodisiac properties. The problem with this type of fishing is that many vaquitas have been trapped in the nets used to capture totoaba. In 2017, the Mexican government prohibited the use of these fishing instruments in the vaquita's habitat. Other measures have been taken to protect the species. Projects for the conservation of the smallest cetacean In 1992, even before the vaquita was declared endangered, the Technical Committee for the Preservation of the Vaquita and Totoaba (CTPVT) was created. This organization combined efforts, from the public and private sectors, focused on caring for this species. Additionally, in 1997, the International Committee for the Recovery of the Vaquita Marina (CIRVA) was formed. Researchers from Canada, the United States, Europe and Mexico coincide in this group. CIRVA takes its work in two directions; Firstly, there is the elaboration of a recovery plan for the species; Second, the socioeconomic impact on the communities that may be affected by the proposed measures is monitored. THE CONSERVATION OF THE VAQUITA MARINA GOES BEYOND ETHICS, SAYS DR. MARIA LUISA MARTINEZ VAZQUEZ. β€œAS IT IS A TOP PREDATOR, ITS PRESENCE IN THE ECOSYSTEM REGULATES MANY PROCESSES AND CYCLES THAT WILL BE ALTERED IN ITS ABSENCE. THIS HAS ALREADY BEEN OBSERVED IN OTHER ECOSYSTEMS THAT HAVE LOST THEIR KEY SPECIES. IN THIS CASE, IT IS LIKELY THAT THE FISHERIES WILL BE AFFECTED, SO STRONG ECONOMIC EFFECTS ARE EXPECTED.” https://www.ngenespanol.com/animales/vaquita-marina-la-marsopa-mexicana-que-sobrevive-en-el-mar-de-cortes/
