La Gazzetta stings on the front page: “Milan, have you seen Conte?”

And to think that in the summer we preferred to focus on a coach who was more “coach” than “manager” and today these are the results. The profile that all fans craved has arrived at your home and taken three points who perhaps wrote the last word on August 29 about your race for the tricolor, which at the beginning of the season seemed to be the number one goal.

To date, however Milan is -11 to Antonio Conte’s Napoliwho we can say took a few pebbles out of his shoe directly in the face of the Rossoneri management, who preferred to focus on something else instead of him, which until the last moment was waiting for a call from via Aldo Rossi.

And it is precisely on this subject that he spoke this morning La Gazzetta dello Sport on the front page by writing a rather provocative headline, fueling even more regret for Devil damn it: “Milan, have you seen Conte?”

Today’s Almanac, October 30: that jokester Orson Welles

The myth of Rodolfo “Rudolph” Valentino was born on October 30, 1921, when the film premiered in Los Angeles The Sheikhthe film that launched him as the first “Latino Lover” in cinema history. Orson Welles’ career took off on October 30, 1938. That night, Americans tuned in to CBS and heard the horrifying radio commentary about an alien landing on Earth, beginning with the arrival of a spaceship in New Jersey. The commentator explained that it was the “vanguard of an invasion army” on Mars. After only a good half hour of the program – and after the description of the attack in New York – there was a pause. Meanwhile, the first calls from terrified citizens have also come in. It wasn’t a real alien invasion, but a radio drama based on The War of the Worldsdirected by and starring Welles. The actual number of people who accepted the drama as true is debated, but New York Times headline: “Radio listeners in panic, taking war drama as fact”.

All over the world, health problems continue to rise

The authors insist that global warming not only poses a long-term threat, but is already causing widespread, sometimes fatal, health problems. They point in particular to an increase in heat-related deaths as heatwaves become more common in temperate regions, such as most European countries. Among those over 65, heat-related deaths more than doubled in 2023 compared to the 1990s average, the report highlighted, citing other heat-related issues. high temperatures: difficulty sleeping, risks of stroke during exercise…

State responsibility

The report also highlights the risks of so-called “extreme” climate events, such as heavy rainfall that can cause flooding or contaminate running water. Compared to the period 1961-1990, during the years 2014-2023, the regions of the world exposed to this precipitation increased by more than half. Above all, the researchers note that it is not enough to separately assess each of these risks – and many others also explored by the report -: “they likely have simultaneous and cascading effects […] which disproportionately threatens human health and survival when global temperatures rise by a fraction of a degree.

More coal despite the climate crisis: production at an all-time high

[image error]

Despite the massive damage to the climate, coal-fired power generation continues to rise — and there are few concrete plans to phase it out. This is the main result of an ongoing assessment by the environmental organization Urgewald, which, together with other organizations, maintains a large public database on the coal industry – called the Global Coal Exit List. Today, coal-fired power plants installed worldwide have a capacity of 2,126 gigawatts – up a good 11 percent from 2015, when the global community agreed on the Paris climate target to limit global warming.
