We Demand to Shake Earth Day
I remember that day well in 1974, when we were in the ninth grade, when the class teacher asked us to engage with Jewish students from a secondary school in Upper Nazareth in a dialogue and discussion with Yitzhak Rabin, who was going to be a guest at the Cultural Centre in Nazareth. And indeed, we met, but they divided us into two parts: a section for Jewish students and a section for Arab students. After we sat down and calmed down a bit, Yitzhak Rabin came in and sat down with the class teacher. Suddenly the Jewish students stood up and began to chant the 'Hatikva' in a loud voice that astonished and amazed us, because it raised in front of us the wall of helplessness from not responding with that sharp language that dominated the atmosphere. The astonishment lasted for a few minutes, and one of my classmates stood up and began to sing “Haze, Nawaem, with your silk hair” by the Lebanese singer Issam Raji. This song was dominant in the Arab singing street at the time. We started chanting the song in defiance of the Jewish students. We did not discover that we are from the miserable lost generation until after the newspapers started writing about the phenomenon of “Shake Ya Nawaem”, which showed that the Palestinian student in this country does not know his national anthem, and cannot stand strong and capable in front of the other who daily robs him of his right to land, history, memory and narration Palestinian.

To Ukraine With Love
There are no words to describe the horrors and hell that you are facing right now. What is happening to you should not be happening to anyone. For what it is worth, you are in every thought, prayer, and best wish from myself and everyone else I know. I can’t help but admire how brave you all are being with bullets flying, bombs going off, and being rushed away at a second’s notice. War is horrible and good for absolutely nothing. (Yes, just like the song.)

The Effects of a Nuclear War
As geopolitical tensions rise in nuclear-armed states, we start wondering what would happen if a nuclear war started. The horrific devastation and suffering witnessed in Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945 warn us of the dangers of such a nuclear war. At that time different organizations began documenting the effects of the nuclear explosions on human health, and the environment. The blast wave, the thermal wave, and the radiation generated by nuclear explosions have devastating short and long-term effects on the human body.

Mass Extinction
Mass Extinction: Oceans Our planet today is arguably facing the biggest mass extinction event of history which would destroy billions of years of fossils, artifacts, and species development/diversity that has grown over the millions of years between extinction events. This type of genetic diversity and evolution would take millions of years to form again, especially for human organisms to form as they once had.

Trees are Not for Poor People
While mocking tree equity, critics of the provision ignore what it's like to die of extreme heat. When core body temperature reaches a hundred and four degrees and higher, a person can become confused or lost in delirium, nonresponsive. Heat-stroke victims are consumed by nausea and difficulty breathing. They vomit. They can't hold water. Finally, the body breaks down. Organs fail and emit toxins. It is a painful, often lonely death. It's also a preventable one.
