News at a glance: Sustainable Development Goals, CO2 removal, and hominin fossils in space
POLICY Scientists call for revamped Sustainable Development Goals New analyses confirm the world is failing to meet the Sustainable Development Goals, a set of ambitious objectives agreed to in 2015 by the United Nations, and scientists are among those calling for a reboot. The 17 goals include ending poverty and hunger and ensuring sustainable consumption by 2030.

UNISON takes COVID-19 inquiry call to TUC Congress
“In many ways, it took the pandemic to expose the true cost of austerity.” So said UNISON president Libby Nolan as she moved the union’s motion on the COVID-19 public inquiry at the TUC Congress in Liverpool yesterday, saying that the most fitting memorial to all the working people who died during the pandemic would be for lessons to be learned and acted upon. She pointed out that the hearings in the inquiry, which only started in June, had revealed that the “government has failed in their preparedness and response.” Ms Nolan, a cardiac nurse from Swansea, described how, “as a nurse, I used bin bags to cover m...

Why It Takes Forever to Get a Doctor ’ s Appointment
Recently I faced consoling a patient of mine who couldn’t understand why I was unable to “hop on the phone” to discuss her new back pain. When she finally got an appointment with me weeks later, I decided to be honest. I shared that I had 1,300 patients who call me their primary doctor. After I’m done seeing patients at 5 PM, I tend to 50 to 100 messages and notifications. I take three to four hours of work home with me every night. [time-brightcove not-tgx=”true”] I didn’t share these stats to elicit sympathy, but soon our roles had reversed. My patient overflowed with apologi...

Last week, international experts warned that invasive species are costing the world economy almost half-a-trillion dollars annually .
