Time to envision legal recourse for climate refugees
As gradually worsening climate patterns and
severe weather events prompt an increase in human
mobility, people who choose to move will do so with little
legal protection. The current system of international law is
not equipped to protect climate migrants, as there are no
legally binding agreements obliging countries to support
climate migrants.
While climate migrants who flee unbearable
conditions resemble refugees, the legal protections
afforded to refugees do not extend to them. In the
aftermath of World War Il, the United Nations established a
system to protect civilians who had been forced from their
home countries by political violence. Today, there are
almost 20.4 million officially designated refugees under the
protection of the United Nations High Commission for
Refugees (UNHCR), but there is an additional group of
21.5 million people who flee their homes as a result of
sudden onset weather hazards every year.
The UNHCR has refused to grant these people
refugee status, instead designating them as
“environmental migrants,” in large part because it lacks the
resources to address their needs. But with no organized
effort to supervise the migrant population, these desperate
individuals go where they can, not necessarily where they
should. As their numbers grow, it will become increasingly
difficult for the international community to ignore this
challenge. As severe climate change displaces more
people, the international community may be forced to
either redefine “refugees” to include climate migrants or
create a new legal category and accompanying institutional
framework to protect climate migrants. However, opening
that debate in the current context would be very difficult.
Currently, the atmosphere in Europe and the U.S. would
most likely lead to limiting refugee protections rather than
expanding them.

U.K. hospitals are overburdened. But the British
love their universal health care
March 7, 2018
When Erich McElroy takes the stage at comedy
clubs in London, his routine includes a joke about the first
time he went to see a doctor in Britain.
Originally from Seattle, McElroy, 45, has lived in
London for almost 20 years. A stand-up comedian, he's
made a career out of poking fun at the differences in the
ways Americans versus Britons see the world - and one of
the biggest differences is their outlook on health care.
"| saw a doctor, who gave me a couple pills and
sent me on my way. But | still hadn't really done any
paperwork. | was like, 'This isn't right! " McElroy says
onstage, to giggles from the crowd. "So | went back to the
same woman, and | said, 'What do | do now?! And she
said, You go home! "
The mostly British audience erupts into laughter.
McElroy acknowledges it doesn't sound like much
of a joke. He's just recounting his first experience at a UK.
public hospital. But Britons find it hilarious, he says, that an
American would be searching for a cash register, trying to
find how to pay for treatment at a doctor's office or hospital.
Itis a foreign concept here, McElroy explains.
Onstage, McElroy recounts how, when the hospital
receptionist instructed him to go home, he turned to her
and exclaimed, "This is amazing!"
Amazing, he says, because he did not have to pay
- at least not at the point of service. In Britain, there is a
state-funded system called the National Health Service, or
NHS, which guarantees care for all. That means everything
from ambulance rides and emergency room visits to long
hospital stays, complex surgery, radiation and
chemotherapy - are all free. They are paid for with payroll
taxes. In addition, any medication you get during a hospital
visit is free, and the cost of most prescription drugs at a
pharmacy are cheap - a few dollars. (Private health care
also exists in the U.K., paid out-of-pocket or through
private insurance coverage, but only a small minority of
residents opt for it.)
Since the 2008 financial crisis, the U.K., like many
countries, has been taking in less tax revenue - so it has
had to cut spending. Its expenditure on the National Health
Service has still grown, but at a slower pace than before.
[...] Wait times at the emergency room are up, says
Richard Murray, policy director at the King's Fund, a health
care think tank.
"If the ER is really busy, it makes the ambulances
queue outside the front door - not great," Murray says.
"And in some cases, the hospital is simply full."

Dedicated to helping his community
December 2020
When the country went into coronavirus lockdown
this year, one Royal Navy sailor sprang into action to
protect his local community with all the dedication and
efficiency of a military operation.
Chief Petty Officer Sean Mackenzie has served in
the Royal Navy for 29 years and works at Royal Navy Air
Station Culdrose in Cornwall. So when people in his village
of Tregony faced the uncertainty of lockdown in March,
CPO Mackenzie knew exactly what to do.
In the navy, he specialises in logistics at 1700
Naval Air Squadron, which deploys teams of sailors around
the world to allow flying operations on navy warships,
support ships and air bases. He also supervises a team of
70 personnel at Culdrose's extensive supply chain depot.
“From the first day of lockdown, | got together with
a couple of former military men and we created our own
group,” he said. “We did rounds of the village and we
deliberately made it as military as we could. | wanted to
help my community and these people in it are all part of
that together.”
His team of volunteers, which grew to 27 people,
immediately set up a 'smiley-face system” where anyone,
many of them elderly, could indicate with a simple sign in
their window if they needed help or not.
Regular smiley-face patrols were soon underway
every day in the village of around 450 households. This
was followed by a 'buddy system”, where socially-isolated
people could receive a visit and talk to someone - for many
it could be their only contact all day, [...] from a safe
distance outside.
The team also prepared an emergency kitchen
[...] established their own foodbank and updated
noticeboards with the latest advice.
They bought food for those who could not get out,
including up to 20 visits a day to the local shop. Soon, dogwalking and pizza-delivery services followed as well as a
medicine delivery service, which collected more than 2,000
prescriptions over lockdown, which were then personally
handed out to each patient.
Al of this was on top of Chief Petty Officer
Mackenzie's responsibilities at work, where he continued
as a key-worker, helping to ensure that the Royal Navy
could still meet its key defence requirements.
“ was really aware that everyone needed help and
| was capable of helping. | was also aware that my own
parents were sat in a similar situation, but 300 miles away.
Here | could do something to help my community.”
He has now been singled out for an award by the
commanding officer of RNAS Culdrose, Captain Stuart
Finn, who said: “Chief Petty Officer Mackenzie has
displayed exemplary leadership skills, both in his
professional capacity with the Royal Navy and a selfless
approach to service in his local community.”
(Adapted from “Dedicated to helping his community”. Naval
News, p. 39, December 2020. & https:/Mww.cornwalllive.com)

How many kisses?
You must remember this: you were going in for a double
European - style greeting kiss with a friend who was expecting
only a single cheek peck. It’s an awkward question that constantly
creates trouble for traveleres: How many times should you pucker
up? Here’s a handy guide:
One: A single buss is acceptable in the U.S., but it’s mostly a
big-city, phenomenon. Women will give a brief hug, while men
shake hands. In the Middle East, one kiss on the lips is a normal
greeting, but not between men and women.
Two: Double up in Spain, Austria, Sweden, Hungary and,
more recently, in Britain.
Three or more: Triple kisses will work in Egypt, Russia,
Switzerland and the Netherlands. Business in Belgium? Three
kisses are a sign of respect for those at least 10 years older than
you. Pack your lip balm in France; many people still insist on four
kisses.
Keep your lips to yourself: Germans rarely greet with a kiss.
In Chile, opt for a handshake. Skip the kiss and bow or shake
hands instead when visiting Japan, China and Korea.
Time, March 15, 2004, p.63.

But darling, just kiss me slow
Your heart is all I own

Baby, I’m dancing in the dark
With you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass
Listening to our favorite song
When you said you looked a mess
I whispered underneath my breath
But you heard it, darling
You look perfect tonight
Well I found a woman, stronger
Than anyone I know
She shares my dreams
I hope that someday I’ll share her home’(...)
