💨 Abstract

Jack Lovall, Apollo 13's Captain, was reportedly dead. A recent effort to significantly alter Brazil's environmental licensing regulations was partially vetoed by President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva. These updates would weaken environmental protections, especially in the Amazon, according to environmental activists. Lula's vetoes aim to preserve regulatory integrity and shield sensitive areas while permitting accelerated licenses for low-polluting enterprises.
