LONDON: The world-famous Selous Game Reserve in Tanzania must be stripped of its status as a World Heritage Site due to the irreversible damage done by construction of a controversial dam.
The London-based Environmental Investigation Agency (EIA) is leading the call for delisting ahead of the World Heritage Committee’s meeting, which opens on Friday (16 July).
The Rufiji hydropower project is set to flood an area of 125,000 ha and construction has already resulted in a sprawling industrial complex in the heart of the wilderness, with roads to and from the area opening and connecting poachers to a rich and now exceptionally vulnerable ecosystem.

There’s a science to understanding why they don’t teach this in N.J. | Letters

I am a physics teacher in this state, and I wholeheartedly endorse the view that more space science should be taught in our schools. However, I think the authors Charly Castillo and Sruthi Suresh, two high school students with strong science backgrounds missed some important information that could add perspective.
As few as one in three physics teachers in this country has a background in either physics or physics education, based on a 2014 report by the American Institute in Physics. Most teachers, then, are non-specialists who teach this subject because the demand is comparatively lower than for some other courses. The AIP report states that fewer than half of American students take any physics course.
