News from the States: President of El Salvador refuses to return wrongly deported Maryland man to the U.S.

We’ll start today as usual with Trump administration updates:

Next up, updates on the climate, environment, and health. We’ll start in America. First, an investigative report into the anti-regulation movement that’s building in New Mexico. They don’t want the federal government to have any control over New Mexico land and seek for public land to be privatized. Next up is an article on America’s disappearing wetlands and the feds backing away from protecting them. In North Dakota, the Keystone Pipeline has resumed operating, though at a reduced pressure. Moving on, it’s been discovered that paper receipts used by some major retailers are so toxic that touching them for even 10 seconds is too much. Up in Canada, it’s been discovered that protecting old-growth forests in British Columbia could generate more money than allowing them to be logged. Finally, the Kashechewan First Nation has begun evacuating due to spring flooding. This is an annual thing for them, unfortunately.
Now we head up to Canada. Here’s your election updates:

This law allows for facial recognition to be used to arrest those who participate in any. Also in queer liberation news, a Green Party candidate in Norway wants to give asylum to American trans people. Staying in the Scandinavian Peninsula, Denmark could eliminate cervical cancer by 2040 due to HPV vaccination and screening successes. We will end in England, where Birmingham trash collectors have rejected a “totally inadequate” deal. Finally, in Watford cemetary, 85 Muslim graves were vandalized.
