This is what doctors recommend to prepare

by

ICT, TAC. The Realities have it clear: It is not that it is coming An intense pollen season This spring is that we already have it on top. It is true that the weeks with the highest incidence of allergens are usually between the months of May and June, but the meteorology of the last weeks does not deceive. Exceptional circumstances bind to lighter and clearer trends: Everything is going worse. What will happen now? As we explained a few days agothe persistent rains of recent weeks have protected us from early pollinators and has exercised “protective shield” for people with allergy; However, they have contributed (and critically) to the accumulation of moisture in the soil and in the plants themselves. Han, for using a more visual language, loaded the pump. And how José Miguel Viñas said in Meteorednow it is a matter of time. A rebound of temperatures like the current one after rains such as those of recent weeks, will shoot pollen levels to historical levels. They are already shooting them. According to The data of the Copernicus atmosphere monitoring service, this week some allergens will already emerge in some areas of Spain, especially In the south and in the northwest of the Iberian Peninsula. In the south the olive tree will highlight (with concentrations of more than 5,000 grains per m³); In the center and the north, in addition to the grass, we will see a rebound of birch pollen. And it is not something we can ignore. According to the Spanish Society of Allergology and Clinical Immunology (Seaic), allergic by polenes affect more than eight million people in our country. Seven of which are allergic to the grasses, the flower of the olive tree, the Arizónicas, to the shadow banana, the parietaria and, in general, to a long list of more plants that begin to bloom in spring. Now. How can we prepare? That is the big question. And, in general, the ways to do so are quite clear. In fact, the main recommendation of doctors is to reduce exposure to allergy triggers. As Irene Rodríguez, primary care doctor at the Andalusian Health Service explains, the best is a proactive position: monitor pollen levels and the weather conditions (the dry and wind days are the worst); With that in mind, modify our activity plan – prioritizing interior activities in delicate moments. Take action. In addition, there are small practices that can help us: take off the street clothes when they get home, shower strategically or wear mask and sunglasses. Measures can also be taken to keep the inner air clean. There is no infallible system: but HEPA filters or the same air conditioning can help keep pollen levels low. In addition, it is not a bad idea to talk to our header to have a drug pattern designed in case high pollen levels are forecast. Some doctors recommend start taking them up to two weeks before that the symptoms appear. And, above all, patience. Unfortunately, we are still Far from having tools To cure the allergy and effectiveness of medicines, sometimes radically) between them. So the best advice that any doctor can give us beyond hygiene measures and medication is to have patience. And this year, we will need.

Omoda and Jaecoo have bet everything at car atibored from equipment at a good price. They want to repeat with hybrids and electric

by

Omoda and Jaecoo continue their offensive for what we have ahead of the year 2025. Yesterday we counted all the already confirmed details of the Omoda 9a plug -in hybrid that will be sold for less than 40,000 euros ( MOVES III PLAN through) and that aspires to be the most powerful car for the lowest possible price that can be bought in the market. The largest omoda SUV is categorized by the brand as a Plug -in super hybrid. It is part of what they call Shs technology. Its approach, away from European cars that until recently had a few tens of kilometers in completely electric format, is to deliver more than a hundred of them, with batteries that exceed 30 kWh and that, therefore, in the city they can guarantee more than 150 kilometers of autonomy with some ease. Now, omoda and Jaecoo have confirmed that their range is extended with three other new electrified vehicles. One of them, omoda 7, has reserved a hole in this category of Plug -in super hybrids. But, in addition, key novelties for other models of your offer arrive. Electrifying (and much) its range As we said, the first year of omod They approached 8,000 registrations. It has more merit if possible because omoda 5 only had a version of combustion and an electric. The electricity seemed very complicated to place. A high price was already late. If we add that we are not the country where more electric are sold … they closed the year with just 208 omoda 5 EV enrolled. To continue pushing, Omoda has confirmed the arrival of a hybrid variant. The company has confirmed that it is an update in which the frontal will be slightly changed but the design lines already seen in its current model are maintained. The engine will be 1.5TGDI (145 hp) that when working at full yield with the electric motor can generate up to 255 hp of power. At the moment, the brand has not been able to advance more technical details because they lack the approval data so we are waiting to know key data such as its consumption. What we can expect is a competitive price that tightens Toyota nuts in the hybrid market. Right now, this is the most purchased technology in our country and the Japanese firm dominates with an iron hand. Above the JAECOO 7 SHS. This SUV is the plug -in hybrid that we have been waiting from the First vehicle contact. Then we warn that this mechanic could be very interesting if it was extended with an attractive price. We know now that it will arrive with the same mentioned engine but will deliver up to 340 hp of power. The power-consumption-price combination will be key to the future of a car that promises an electrical autonomy of up to 151 kilometers. Finally, the most electrified option is that of the JAECOO 5 EV. In this case we talk about an electric vehicle that has not revealed more technical details so we do not know battery size or expected autonomy. Of course, taking into account that the OMODA 5 EV has a 61 kWh LFP battery and 430 kilometers of autonomy, we can expect similar characteristics to compete in the future with the Byd Atto 2 and Kia EV3.

Spain made the subsidies covered to Ryanair an art. Now another country follows its path: Morocco

by

Ryanair will stop offering 800,000 places This summer of 2025 in Spain. It was an announcement that fell like a bomb in the middle of the dispute that government and airline have open in relation to the rates that Aena charges the companies that operate in their airports. According to Ryanair, Las Aena rates They are abusive and from the company that manages Spanish airports they defend themselves ensuring that they are essential to guarantee, among other services, the security or cleaning of the facilities. The problem is that Aena had these frozen rates from 2021 and thus had to remain until 2026. However, last year they rose and although The CNMC frozen the rate againnow companies pay 4.9% more than before. In the middle of the dispute, Ryanair was also fined by the State for breaching, in his opinion, the regulations of the hand luggage. Together with other low-cost companies such as Vueling, Norweigan, Easyjet or Volotea, the Irish company was punished but it was also the one that took the worst part: a sanction of 107.78 million euros. This cluster of circumstances led the company to press where it hurts the most in Spanish air mobility: Provinces airports. Ryanair announced that he partially abandoned the airports of Vigo, Santiago, Zaragoza, Asturias and Santander. But, above all, he announced that he was completely left by Jerez and Valladolid. The movement has not been there because In its February statementRyanair already announced that he considered taking action in the same direction if the context did not change. A threat that has recently reiterated. However, then Eddie Wilson, his CEO, already pointed out that “Aena’s decision not to encourage airlines to use the missed capacity of their regional airports has forced Ryanair to relocate aircraft and capacity in more competitive European markets, such as Italy, Sweden, Croatia, Hungary and Morocco, where governments encourage actively growth. “ Now we check the consequences. Empty seats “Ryanair’s airplanes They will attend where there is business opportunity, whether by direct market or by public subsidy. “This is how Víctor P. currás summarizes in The Faro de Vigo The situation with which they have been found in the Galician city with the 61% reduction of the activity of the Irish company in its city. When Wilson pointed out that they would fly to countries “where governments incentive” did not lie. Ryanair has closed a line between Vigo and Barcelona that maintained an average occupation of 90% in favor of a New route to Morocco where just 9% of the seats are busy. These flights are those corresponding to the route that Ryanair has opened with origin in Madrid or Lanzarote and destination Daklha, a Moroccan city in the Sahara that is trying to promote itself as an active tourism. It is another measure within a project you want Transform the city into an economic complex reference in the area. The intention is to turn the city into a showcase for the world during the 2030 World Cup (What Morocco shares with Spain). This is the reason why Ryanair flies with such a low occupation to the Moroccan city. Fatim-Zahra Ammor, Minister of Tourism of Morocco, announced the arrival of the company A few months ago. Behind, obviously, a juicy subsidy in the form of an advertising contract for Ryanair. They collect in the Galician environment that the occupation rate has been poor. The best data has arrived from Madrid with just over 50% occupation. However, the reserved places have been deflating on the Route of Lanzarote to the point of not even reaching 10% of the total offer. This way of acting is nothing less new. In fact, in eldiario.es They explained well that the subsidies camouflaged as advertising contracts to keep the routes in provincial airports alive are a constant for years. By suppuerto, Ryanair has benefited in this way to act. Three examples. The Cantabria government delivered 18 million euros in public promotion to Ryanair. Vigo maintained a route with London in exchange for a disbursement of 625,000 euros in the form of an advertising contract. With the suppression of this connection, Vigo wants sanction the airline with more than 17,000 euros for breaking the contract unilaterally. In 2019, Ryanair maintained routes in Spain by value of 239 million euros of public moneyaccording to ELECONOMIST. Ryanair now applies in Morocco the same formula he has applied in Spain. The company has used Spanish airports in the provinces to press and, aware that New aircraft will not reach them In the short term, these advertising contracts are especially juicy when reorganizing their routes.

60% less reservations in ship containers

by

The Commercial War Not only is it felt in the bags and currency markets. Its seismic effect is Said clear In the oceans, where the ships that move navigate More than 80% of the World Commercial. And there is one in particular in which the tariff pulse between Washington and Beijing is noticeable: the Pacific. There logistics companies have already perceived how, after the 145% rates rise imposed by Donald Trump to China, the Container reserves and the maritime traffic that leaves the Chinese ports towards the US He is losing bellows. The big question is: What comes now? From the offices to the ports. International trade has a great operations scenario and is neither the parquet nor the offices of the CEO. No. They are the oceans. United Nations calculates that More than 80% International trade moves by sea, on board ships that may be slower than airplanes, but also offer a much cheaper transport alternative. Hence, when a few weeks ago Trump presented his famous Tariff tablewith a long list of rates for merchandise exports to the US, one of the places where more was felt Its effect were the seas and ports. In early April the container reserves for the United States fell more than 60%. Something expected if you consider that many companies They had advanced Your operations to anticipate the coup. Looking at the Pacific. That first shopping war agated the markets, but soon softened when Trump announced a 90 -day truce which set a global tariff base of “only” 10%. Where the tension was not relaxed in China. Beijing and Washington engaged in a tariff pulse that derived (for the moment) in an escalation of the rates that both countries impose on exports of the other: USA applied 145% To China and this replied with 125%that in some cases, including agricultural products, It rises to 135%. The impact of that rise in costs on the maritime flow of merchandise between the two countries soon noticed. In the middle of the month South China Morning Post (SCMP) I spoke now From a puncture in container traffic on transpacific routes, travel cancellation and a collapse in load reserves for the following weeks between 30% and 60% in China and 10-20% in the rest of Asia. The reason: US tariffs complicated the viability of Chinese exports. And that are major words if one takes into account that, like Remember the CNBCChina represents about 30% of all imports via US container and more than half (54%) of those from Asia. Before the pandemic, in 2018, it even monopolized 67%. There are now transpacific shipping companies in charge of that commercial flow that have resorted to Blank Sailing and canceled trips. Click on the image to go to Tweet. And what is the stage now? Complicated. Hapag-Lloyd German shipping company He just recognized to Five days that has registered a cancellation of reserves “from China to the US” of around 30% and the CNBC warned On Tuesday of a fall in the flow of Chinese ships in the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach. Specifically, he points out that the southern docks of California have registered a 29% collapse in the traffic of containers with Chinese origin. Yesterday Ryan Petersen, CEO of Flexport, went further and He contributed a fact Even more devastating in X: “In the three weeks after the tariffs, maritime container reserves from China to the United States have decreased more than 60% throughout the industry.” If we talk about forecasts, the flow of ships expected for the week of May 4 to 10 will register a major year -on -year fallof 44%. What does that translate? In many less containers. The week of April 20 those US ports received 22 ships. This week 12. Translated into Teus, the large unit of load measurement, assumes that the week of May 4 to 10 will be 62,668 compared to 120,608 scored from April 20 to 26. Half. “Shipments have interrupted”. “I am hearing direct retailers and manufacturers here in the US that many have interrupted all shipments from China,” Recognize Axios Gene Seroka, executive of the Los Angeles terminal. “It is likely that in the coming weeks we will see two thirds of the normal load, or less.” The expert admits Also a fall of between 8 and 10% in US exports in recent months and does not rule out that the trend is exacerbated by Chinese tariffs. Beyond China. That the commercial war has weighed the demand for containers from China to the US does not mean that the trend is the same for the entire region. On the contrary. Hapag-Lloyd is noticing for example more than reservations from China to the US. In Your interview with Five daysone of its managers, Nils Hauct, also speaks of a “considerable increase” in the volume of reserves from Cambodia, Vietnam and Thailand. And it makes enough sense that it is. Not long ago the investment bank Goldman Sachs He already warned that, taking advantage of the 90 -day tariff truce approved by Trump, there are companies that have begun to look for alternatives outside China. And they do it looking at neighboring countries, included in Southeast Asia. “In the short term, the activity in Southeast Asia is recovering due to the production output from China to where there is available capacity,” Write. Moreover, in its report it points out that a part (20%) of Chinese manufacturers have resorted to their facilities outside China to benefit from their tariffs. Are there more consequences? Yes, there are. On other fronts. The puncture in the demand has aggravated the fall in the prices of freight on routes such as Shanghai-Los Angeles. Supply chain Precise That this goes on the rate of container rates for Chinese exports have collapsed 28%, marking their worst exercise start of the last two decades. The commercial war is also felt on other fronts of the logistics sector, such as storage or road transport that … Read more

Motorola continues to bet on folding smartphones. The company, one of the first to join this type of products already (sighs) Six yearshas improved its Flip type folding recipe over time and today comes not with one, but with two. And it is that the property of Lenovo has announced in New York its new Razr 60 and Razr 60 Ultratwo folding mobiles with two very clear approaches: the first, one more affordable folding.

The differences, of course, are in the finishessince Motorola has reserved the most premium options, such as the Alcantara finish or natural wood, for the Ultra model. Both RAZR 60 and RAZR 60 Ultra have a huge external screen of 3.6 and 4 inches, respectively, which allows us to use the Android apps as if it were the internal screen, see notifications and, ultimately, interact with the device and its AI. Obviously, The older brother is much more capable both in soda (165 compared to 120 Hz) and in Pico brightness (3,000 vs 1,700 Nits) and Gorilla Glass protection. Both occupy almost the entire front, including the area that surrounds the cameras. Motorola Razr 60 Ultra | Image: Motorola The internal screen shares size and many of the features. In both models it is around seven inches and offers a resolution greater than FullHD, but that of Razr 60 Ultra Reach the 165 Hzhas a peak shine of 4,500 nits (which will be used on counting and punctual occasions) and a quite higher pixel density. Both models, in any case, are compatible with Dolby Atmos, which is always good news. Mediatek for the first, Qualcomm for the Ultra (and Ia, of course) Motorola Razr 60 Ultra | Image: Motorola Under the hood we find the two options that you would expect from two mobiles in this category. First, for the Motorola Razr 60 the Chinese firm has opted for a MEDATEK DIMENSITY 7400X (The folding version of Dimensity 7400), a four -nanometer socate that arrives accompanied by eight Gigas by memory RAM LPDDR4X and 256 GB of UFS storage (whose version is 2.2, by the way). It is not the most powerful lot in the market, but it should be more than enough for almost any task. The ultra brother climbs to Qualcomm’s car and sets a processor that we already know more than left over: the Snapdragon 8 Elite. It is the most powerful that an Android mobile can ride at this time. It is a three nanometers chipset enhanced by 16 GB of memory RAM LPDDR5X and 512 GB of internal storage UFS 4.0. Not only is it a more powerful soc but memories are also faster than those of Razr 60. Motorola Razr 60 | Image: Motorola The operating system is Android 15 in both cases with 4,500 mAh in RAZR 60 or 4,700 mAh in the Ultra. The latter not only has more capacity, but more powerful fast and wireless technologies. Here the autonomy for one day is practically guaranteed, although everything will depend on the use we make of the terminal. These smartphones are also in charge of brand new (together with the Edge 60) the new artificial intelligence tools, Moto AI. This comes loaded with creativity and productivity options, although the most striking is perhaps The pioneer integration of the Meta and Perplexity models. Motorola seems to be clear that the AI ​​in mobiles will give options and has decided that the most sensible thing is to give them almost all: Google Gemini, Microsoft Copilot, Meta call and perplexity.

Australia has executed 750 Koalas with snipers uploaded to helicopters. Even if it seems, it was for its good

by

The Koalas are one of the most recognizable (and probably beloved) symbols in Australia and in part of their territory, such as New South Wales, Queensland or the Territory of the Australian capital They are considered in danger of extinction. Neither one nor the other has prevented a group of snipers being killing hundreds and hundreds of these marsupials in the BUDJ BIM National Parka wide nature reserve located to the south of the country. They do it from helicopters, with the support of the government and supposedly for “Humanitarian reasons”. The big question is … why? Snipers, helicopters and koalas. A priori are three concepts without too much relationship with each other, but those are the protagonists of the controversy that has shaken in recent days the Victoria statesouth of Australia, where the Budj Bim National Park is located. Local press days ago He started informing that hundreds and hundreds of koalas were sacrificing there. If the news was not surprising (and sad) already won even more impact When it transcended How the killing is carried out: animals are dejected From helicopters with the aid of snipers. All this of course with the PLACET of the Department of Energy, Environment Climate (DEECA), The conservation authority, as confirmed recently The ABC chain. Click on the image to go to Tweet. How many koalas have they dejected? The exact encrypts can dance based on the source that is consulted, but they all agree on something: the campaign is ending hundreds and hundreds of koalas in the region, more than half a thousand. In the middle of the month, as the news progresses, Yahoo News assured that had sacrificed between 600 and 700 marsupials. There are activists who raise However, the total balance of the measure above the 700 copies And in the last hours Europa Press (AP) rounded the figure talking about “Up to 750 koalas”. And what is the reason? Humanitarian reasonsaccording to The authorities allege of Victoria. The sacrifices are part of a precipitated euthanasia campaign in turn, the government insists, for The forest fire that devastated in March around 2,200 hectares of the Budj Bim National Park. The flames would have affected part of the fauna (including the koalas) and also devastated 20% of the Natural Reserve. The result: injured animals, abandoned and have seen how much of the eucalyptus they need to feed. No other options? Although the use of helicopters and snipers can be striking (and unorthodox), the Victoria government assures that the decision was adopted after “exhaustive evaluations” and that the koalas that are being down are “severely affected” by the forest fire. Moreover, Deseca claims that he has not found other alternatives to face the problem beyond hiring professional shooters and uploading them to helicopters. “All other methods considered are not adequate given the impossibility of safely accessing large areas of the affected landscape due to the remote location of the animals, which are often found at the top of the treetops, the extremely rugged land and the safety risks that lead to work in an area affected by fire and with damaged trees,” James Todd explainshead of Deca, to Vox Magazine. Do you all think the same? No. and good proof is that the news about the campaign has unleashed an intense controversy in the state of Victoria, the Australian team and beyond even the country. The reason: the scope of the measure. The Animal Justice Party He has denounced that local authorities “are not making any effort” to verify whether females dejected from the air have, for example, young. AND Alliance for the Koalas It even goes further and denounces that technicians have no way to check from the heights if the specimens they deduct are really in “bad conditions.” “It seems very indiscriminate,” Rolf Schlagloth agreesresearcher at the CQUNIVERSITY Australia specialized in Koalas. “The rescue should always be the first option if possible.” Beyond shots and helicopters. Among the activists and experts, not only has the selective koala slaughter bothered. Throughout the last days, voices have also been raised that they see in what happened in Budj Bim An example More than “the poor management of the species and its habitat” and warn of the effect of eucalyptus felling or the threat of global warming and fires. “We cannot eliminate forest fires completely, but more healthy forests and with greater continuity they can help reduce the risk and severity of the fires. The Koalas habitat must be extensive and be connected, and the management of the blue eucalyptus plantations must take into account the koalas,” SCHLAGLOTH ZANJA In a recent interview with Vox Magazine. Taller slopes. That last nuance is important. In Another article Posted in The conversation By Liz Hicks and Ashleight Best, two law experts at the University of Melbourne, remember that Budj Bim National Park is surrounded by commercial eucalyptus plantations, hectares full of foliage that end up receiving koalas in search of food. The problem is that this availability of the sheet leads to the populations of the marsupial to increase. And once the plantations are talked, those same animals return to the protected park. The result: greater pressure in the area and greater vulnerability to fires such as March. “Animals point out that logging is one of the reasons why Budj Bim had so many koalas,” They add.

We thought that oil was a thing of the past. But the oil companies that have remained faithful to raw live their golden age

by

While the rise of renewables continues full -potato wind, as can be seen in projects such as GLOBAL RENEWABLE Watchthe big refineries are starring an unexpected return to the center of the energy stage. The commitment to hydrocarbons. Unlike other companies in the sector, French TotalEnergies did not turn completely in an energy conversion. Yes, he invested in renewables. Yes, he developed liquefied natural gas projects. But he never abandoned his base: oil and gas. According to Reutersthe company has increased its UPSTREAM production (crude and gas extraction) compared to the first quarter of 2024. Although oil prices are below the level of a year ago, gas sales have improved, and fuel production is returns to be profitable. Refinement in recovery. The situation is dragging the effects of a profitability drop that has affected the entire industry. According to the company, the profit margins in the oil refining in Europe have increased in the last six months, but there are still 59% below the levels of a year ago. All this is due to multiple reasons, such as a weak demand, the growth of New refineries in Asia and Africa, OPEC+ overproduction and Trump’s tariff war. Even so, as the news agency has detailed, Totalenergies has increased fuel production, partially benefiting from that slight recovery on the margins. The strategy. According to Ahmed Ben Salem, an analyst at Oddo BHF, among the greats of the sector, Totalenergies is “the most resilient in a weaker macro environment, backed by diversification towards liquefied natural gas and renewable energy.” And it is not the only one that has found a new balance between transition and profitability. While Timenergies clings to a hybrid strategy, its Anglo -Saxon rivals are also adjusting the course. BP, for example, has trimmed His green ambitions to focus again on hydrocarbons. Exxonmobil He has opted strong for carbon capture. Together, all of them seem to be converging in the same idea: crude has not yet said his last word. The paradox of the transition. In the decisive decade for climate action, refining recovery sounds almost to Anatema. Can the energy sector continue to win time with fossil fuels without losing the decarbonization train? This dynamic does not occur in a vacuum. As I know He explained The tariff war and the firmness of the OPEC+ to continue producing the barrels has caused a drop in oil prices, with the Brent and the WTI stabilized around 60 dollars a barrel. This scenario impacts directly on the refineries, which try to balance fossil profitability with the growing stark pressure.

In the last 20 years, colorectal cancer has doubled among young people and we didn’t know why. Now we have a track

by

In the last 20 years, the incidence of colorectal cancer has doubled in young adults and that has fired all alarms. Above all, because while this type of tumor shoots, we have no idea why. Now, a study headed by Spanish researchers has found a suspect: it is called colibactin and a bacterial toxin produced by some strains of Escherichia coli. The colorectal epidemic. The term is “epidemic”, yes. As Manuel Anse explainedthe alarm jumped in the US in the late 2000s: while colorectal cancer decreased in people over 70, growth rates in children under 50 grew at a rate of 1.5%. In Europe, the data suggests that it has arrived to grow to the rhythm of 8% Between twenty -year -old. It was a huge public health problem. But, above all, it was a mystery. What could be behind all this? The first track. In 2020, a research team from the Netherlands discovered that certain strains of Escherichia coli They produced colibactin and that toxin could produce cancer mutations In the children’s DNA. It was an interesting, promising way; But there were too many conditional in the idea. Those conditionals are those who have tried to eliminate the investigation that It has just been published in Nature. What have they done? They have analyzed the DNA of almost a thousand tumors of this type of 11 different countries (and three continents). Not only that: they have examined varieties, typologies and demographic features. And what they have found is more than interesting. To begin with, there are two genetic brands related to the toxin in question that are 3.3 times more common in tumors of young people (compared to those of people over 70 years old). To continue, “they are especially prevalent in countries with a high incidence of colorectal cancer in young people.” What does this mean? “Mutational firms are a kind of historical record in the genome; they point out that exposure to colibactin in early stages of life promotes colorectal cancer of early appearance,” Ludmil Alexandrov explainedfrom the University of California in San Diego. Everything seems to indicate that the harmful effects of this toxin begin soon (in the first 10 years of life). That is, “if someone acquires one of these driving mutations at 10 years, decades could be advanced in the development of colorectal cancer and suffering from age 40 instead of 60, “explained Alexandrov. It is great news. No, it’s excellent news. Insufficient, preliminary and still precarious: but if we are clear, it is that to contain the epidemic we must understand where it comes from. And, for now, it seems that it comes from the modern world. “In the most industrialized countries there is an increase in cases of infection with this strain of Escherichia coliwhich leads us to think about changes in lifestyle “, Díaz Gay says in the country. How can we use it in our favor? We do not know, but we will discover it.
