At least 177 environmental activists were killed across the world last year, a report by the non-governmental organisation Global Witness suggests.
Sixty of the killings took place in Colombia, making it the deadliest country for environmental defenders.
Global Witness says very few of the perpetrators of the killings are ever brought to justice.
The group said in its report that the total number of those killed in the country since it began recording data on ataques on environmentalists in 2012 had amounted to at least 382.
While that makes it the country with the highest number of murders of green activists anywhere in the world, other countries in Latin America also proved deadly.
Brazil recorded 34 murders of defenders of the environment. Mexico 31 and Honduras 11. The Amazon region saw 39 killings, with many of the victims from indigenous communities.
"Research has shown again and again that Indigenous peoples are the best guardians of the forests and therefore play a fundamental role in mitigating the climate crisis," said Global Witness senior adviser Laura Furones.
Global witness said the full scale of the killings was unknown, with a lack of independent monitoring and restrictions on free press in many countries leading to an underreporting of cases.
They have called on governments around the world to urgently address the issue, adding that defenders were also increasingly being subjected to legal efforts to silence them.

In hopeful sign for the US, flu vaccine shows strong protection against hospitalization in South America, CDC report shows

Early data from South America shows that the flu vaccine has cut the risk of hospitalization in half this year, a hopeful sign that the vaccine will provide a similar level of protection in the United States as the country heads into its own respiratory virus season.
The Southern Hemisphere typically experiences its flu season a few months earlier than the United States, and trends from that region can help the US prepare for the fall and winter.
This year, mid-season flu vaccine data from five countries – Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Paraguay and Uruguay – shows that vaccination has reduced the risk of hospitalization by 52%, according to a report published Friday by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The data are based on about 3,000 patients who were hospitalized between late March and early July. People who had gotten the shot at least two weeks before the onset of symptoms were considered to be vaccinated, and the analysis focused on certain high-risk groups who were prioritized in the vaccination campaigns, including children, people with preexisting conditions and older adults.
So far, the specific virus strains that have been detected in US this year have shown a similar pattern to those that were identified in South America. While these patterns are not yet certain, they offer an “encouraging outlook for vaccine protection” in the Northern Hemisphere, the researchers wrote in the new report.
Annual flu shots are available now and the CDC recommends them for everyone 6 months of age and older in September and October, especially including very young children, people with preexisting health conditions, pregnant people and older adults.
The agency is rolling out new ads it hopes will increase confidence in the vaccines with a clear, straightforward message: “The flu vaccine won’t keep a person from getting sick, but it will tame that infection, taking it from “Wild to Mild” — the tagline for the new campaign.
Present perfect is usually used to express things that started in the past but continue or have a great impact in the present. Given that, which of the following sentences is using present perfect in its structure?
The comma can be such an important tool to build texts and it can make the writer's ideas much more understandable to their readers. In the phrase “The agency is rolling out new ads it hopes will increase confidence in the vaccines with a clear, straightforward message” the comma is used:
In English grammar, subordinating conjunctions are used to connect dependent clauses to independent clauses, adding more complexity to the sentences. Considering that, read the following sentence and mark the alternative that contains the word that works as a subordinator and its meaning, respectively:
Exercise directly conditions the cardiovascular system, whereas benefit to other systems or conditions is somewhat less direct.
