World wine production just hit a 56-year low. That’s not even the worst part.
Caitlin Dewey, Washington Post, le 27 octobre 2017

Global wine production plummeted to an almost six-decade low this year — and that isn’t even the worst news.
Thanks to the ravages of climate change, experts say that these sorts of bad harvests, once considered historic, will likely grow more common in the future.
This week, the International Organization of Vine and Wine, a Paris-based scientific and technical group, announced that production would fall by roughly 3 billion bottles this year, a drop of more than 8 percent from 2016 and the lowest level seen since 1961. The losses were driven by a trio of extreme weather events in Italy, France and Spain; the most-affected regions include those that produce Bordeaux, Rioja and Chianti.

Study : Decreases in Global Beer Supply Due to Extreme Drought, Heat
KTVN, le 15 octobre 2018
▻http://www.ktvn.com/story/39287703/study-decreases-in-global-beer-supply-due-to-extreme-drought-heat
A new study says climate change may leave people crying in their costlier beer.
The international study says bouts of extreme heat waves and drought will cut production of barley, a key ingredient of beer.
When that happens, beer prices on average could double. In countries like Ireland, prices could triple.
Previous studies have detailed how chocolate, coffee and wine will be made scarcer and more expensive because of human-caused climate change.
Steve Davis of the University of California, Irvine, says the beer research was partly done to drive home the not-that-palatable message that climate change is messing with all sorts of aspects of our daily lives.

Am I overreacting and being chippy? My son’s also Jewish. Would it be OK if a stranger asked in polite conversation whether he was fond of money? Or asked an equally ignorant question of a Muslim father with regard to one of his children? Of course it would not.
Ce type et moi on aurait bien deux ou trois choses à échanger derrière une paire de pintes au pub . On a tendance à faire les mêmes blagues aux personnes qui nous posent des questions à propos des dons spéciaux de nos enfants.
The women who fear saying #MeToo
Just like Maria, millions of other undocumented women who experience sexual harassment or abuse risk getting arrested, being deported and/or losing their livelihood if they speak up about it. Their abusers are well aware of this fact and exploit it fully, often intentionally misinforming them about what may happen if they leave or report an abusive situation. Few undocumented women like Maria are able to escape this vicious circle and seek help from the authorities.

Femmes étrangères victimes de violences conjugales. Obstacles au renouvellement du permis de séjour en cas de séparation
À l’occasion de la journée internationale des femmes, l’Observatoire romand du droit d’asile et des étrangers (ODAE romand) publie un nouveau #rapport, en collaboration avec le groupe de travail « Femmes migrantes et violences conjugales ». Malgré l’importante avancée que constitue la modification de la Loi fédérale sur les étrangers, les femmes concernées ne sont toujours pas certaines d’obtenir le renouvellement de leur permis de séjour si elles quittent leur mari violent. Un grand nombre d’entre elles préfèrent donc taire les violences subies plutôt que de risquer un renvoi, parfois au péril de leur vie. Pour cette troisième édition, de nouveaux cas concrets ont été signalés à l’ODAE romand illustrant les différents aspects de cette problématique peu connue.

Domestic Violence or Deportation? The Migrant Women Forced to Choose
If you come to the UK as the partner of someone already settled here and experience domestic violence in that relationship, you don’t have an automatic right to the protections and safe spaces most women take for granted.
Women on spousal visas, student visas, and asylum seekers are trapped in violent situations by the ‘no recourse to public funds’ (NRPF) rule. This bars them from accessing most state benefits, including housing benefit. As most beds in women’s refuges are funded through housing benefit, the vast majority are forced to turn NPRF women away.

Kordale Lewis has just returned from a late-night visit to the shops with his daughters, Desmiray, 11, and Maliyah, 10. Their large, grandly furnished home in the Atlanta suburbs is humming with anticipation of an imminent family trip to Paris. The girls have bought some accessories and Kaleb Anthony, Kordale’s partner, is taking an inventory.
Men, you want to treat women better? Here’s a list to start with | Life and style | The Guardian
▻https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2017/oct/16/a-simple-list-of-things-men-can-do-to-change-our-work-and-life-culture
Hey men, what are you planning to do better? Because you need to do better. Here are ideas on how you should treat women better.
Talk to your friend who is “kind of a creep” at work.
Don’t talk over women.
If you are asked to be on a panel/team and see that it’s all men, say something. Maybe even refuse the spot!
When you see another guy talk over a woman, say: “Hey, she was saying something.”
Learn to read a fucking room.
Don’t call women “crazy” in a professional setting.
Don’t use your “feminism” as a way to get women to trust you. Show us in your day-to-day life, not in your self-congratulatory social media.
Don’t touch women you don’t know, and honestly, ask yourself why you feel the need to touch women in general.

Do you feel that any woman on earth owes you something? She doesn’t. Even if you’re like, “Hm, but what about basic respect?” ask yourself if you’ve shown her the same.
Don’t send pictures of your penis unless she just asked for them.
If a woman says no to a date, don’t ask her again.
If a woman has not given an enthusiastic “yes” to sex, back the hell off.
If a woman is really drunk, she cannot consent to you and she also cannot consent to your buddy who seems to be trying something. Your buddy is your responsibility, so say something and intervene.
If you do the right thing, don’t expect praise or payment or a pat on the back or even a “thank you from that woman”. Congratulations, you were baseline decent.
Involve women in your creative projects, then let them have equal part in them.
Don’t make misogynistic jokes.
Don’t expect women to be “nice” or “cute” and don’t get upset when they aren’t those things.
Don’t make assumptions about a woman’s intelligence, capabilities or desires based on how she dresses.
Pay women as much as you pay men.
If a woman tells you that you fucked up, and you feel like shit, don’t put it on that woman to make you feel better. Apologize without qualification and then go away.
Don’t punish women for witnessing your vulnerability.
Don’t get defensive when you get called out.
Don’t need to literally witness a man being horrible in order to believe that he’s horrible. Trust and believe women.
Don’t use your power to get women’s attention/company/sex/etc.
Be aware of your inherent power in situations and use it to protect women, especially via talking to other men.
Stop thinking that because you’re also marginalized or a survivor that you cannot inflict pain or oppress women.
If women’s pain makes you feel pain, don’t prize your pain above hers, or make that pain her problem.
Don’t read a list like this and think that most of these don’t apply to you.
(These also apply to how to better treat transgender and non-binary people, who are in more danger than cis women).

– Tu crois que toutes les femmes de la planète te sont redevables ? (être souriantes, apprêtées, aimables) Non. Même si tu es du genre à croire que c’est un « respect élémentaire ». Demande-toi si tu lui as apporté ce que tu lui demande.
– N’envoie pas de photo de ta bite à une femme à moins qu’elle ne te l’ait demandé.
– Si une femme te dit non pour un rendez-vous, n’insiste plus.
– Si une femme ne t’a pas dit un « OUI » enthousiaste pour coucher avec elle, retourne en enfer.

– Ne punis pas les femmes qui connaissent ta vulnérabilité.
– Ne sois pas sur la défensive quand tu es concerné.

– N’utilise pas ton pouvoir pour obtenir l’attention des femmes / leur compagnie / coucher avec elles / etc.
– Sois conscient du pouvoir inhérent à ton genre dans toutes les situations et utilise-le pour protéger les femmes, surtout en parlant à d’autres hommes.
– Arrête de penser que parce que tu es aussi marginalisé ou un survivant tu ne peux pas infliger de douleur ou opprimer les femmes.
– Si la douleur d’une femme te fait ressentir de la douleur, ne place pas ta douleur au-dessus de la sienne, ni ne lui renvoie ça comme un problème qu’elle te crée.
– Ne lis pas une liste comme celle-ci en pensant que la plupart des suggestions ne s’appliquent pas à toi.
(Cela s’applique également à la façon de mieux traiter les personnes transgenres et non binaires, qui sont plus en danger que les femmes cis).

The shorter your sleep, the shorter your life: the new sleep science | Life and style | The Guardian
▻https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2017/sep/24/why-lack-of-sleep-health-worst-enemy-matthew-walker-why-we-sleep
But Walker believes, too, that in the developed world sleep is strongly associated with weakness, even shame. “We have stigmatised sleep with the label of laziness. We want to seem busy, and one way we express that is by proclaiming how little sleep we’re getting. It’s a badge of honour. When I give lectures, people will wait behind until there is no one around and then tell me quietly: ‘I seem to be one of those people who need eight or nine hours’ sleep.’ It’s embarrassing to say it in public. They would rather wait 45 minutes for the confessional. They’re convinced that they’re abnormal, and why wouldn’t they be? We chastise people for sleeping what are, after all, only sufficient amounts. We think of them as slothful. No one would look at an infant baby asleep, and say ‘What a lazy baby!’ We know sleeping is non-negotiable for a baby. But that notion is quickly abandoned [as we grow up]. Humans are the only species that deliberately deprive themselves of sleep for no apparent reason.” In case you’re wondering, the number of people who can survive on five hours of sleep or less without any impairment, expressed as a percent of the population and rounded to a whole number, is zero.
