INCENDIOS EN HAWÁI: LOS ERRORES Y LAS LECCIONES DE LA CRISIS DE MAUI
José López Zamorano
La Red Hispana
Lamuerte de 111 personas a raíz de los incendios forestales en Maui no puede, no debe ser en vano. Las preguntas abundan y son necesarias respuestas satisfactorias.
• ¿Por qué no se activaron las sirenas de alerta o no fueron activadas?
• ¿Por qué la principal empresa de electricidad no cortó el suministro para evitar igniciones adicionales?
• ¿Por qué demoró el presidente Biden en visitar la zona del desastre?
Por reglamento, un Equipo Nacional de Respuesta especializado de la Oficina de Alcohol, Tabaco, Armas de Fuego y Explosivos (ATF) debe realizar una investigación completa de los incendios.
El gobernador de Hawái, Josh Green, aceptó que pudieron haberse cometido errores debido a la intensidad del momento, pero sugirió que el cambio climático pudo haber agravado el impacto de esas fallas.
Pero la explicación climatológica no es suficiente. Si se determina que existieron errores, es necesario que se compartan con la sociedad, que se deslinden responsabilidades y que se actué en caso de negligencia o incompetencia.
Hasta el momento sabemos que el jefe de la Agencia de Manejo de Emergencias de Maui, Herman Andaya, no activó las sirenas ante el temor de que la población la confundiera con una alerta de tsunami y corriera en la dirección equivocas.
Andaya renunció “por razones de salud”, pero eso no invalida una pregunta crucial para el futuro: ¿por qué no existe un claro protocolo de protección civil en una zona rodeada de potenciales amenazas naturales?
La empresa Hawaiian Electric ya enfrenta una demanda legal presentada por residentes locales ante evidencia de al menos un fuego ocasionado por un árbol caído sobre un transformador. También deberá evaluarse si ha sido oportuna la asistencia de autoridades federales y si la administración Biden actuó con la suficiente celeridad.
Es un hecho irrefutable que la preparación y el alistamiento ante desastres naturales, salvan vidas. No se debe escatimar ningún esfuerzo.
Algunas ciudades del mundo han tomado acciones ejemplares para mejorar la protección civil a raíz de fenómenos inevitables, como terremotos, incendios, huracanes o tornados. Durante un reciente terremoto en California, la alerta se activó oportunamente. La ciudad de México se ha esmerado en crear una cultura sísmica desde el trágico temblor de 1985.
Los damnificados de Maui son mayoritariamente nativos de Hawái. La historia nos ha ensenado que las tragedias climáticas nos golpean despro-
HAWAII FIRES: THE MISTAKES AND LESSONS OF THE MAUI CRISIS
• Why did President Biden take so long to visit the disaster area?
By regulation, a specialized National Response Team from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) must conduct a full investigation of the fires.
Hawaii Gov. Josh Green conceded that mistakes may have been made due to the intensity of the moment, but suggested that climate change may have compounded the impact of those failures.
porcionadamente a las minorías de color. Ya surgieron reportes de personas inescrupulosas que buscan sacar provecho comprando terrenos en las zonas destruidas a precios irrisorios.
El gobierno federal no puede permitir que los damnificados sean víctimas dobles, primero de la naturaleza y después de los buitres que medran con la desesperación. Se debe actuar de manera rápida y decisiva en todos los frentes y aprender las dolorosas lecciones de la tragedia.

Thedeath of 111 people from the Maui wildfires cannot, must not be in vain. Questions abound and satisfactory answers are necessary.
• Why were the warning sirens not activated or not activated?
• Why didn't the main power company turn off the power to prevent additional ignitions?
But the climatological explanation is not enough. If it is determined that there were errors, it is necessary that they be shared with society, that responsibilities be established and that action be taken in case of negligence or incompetence.
So far, we know that the head of the Maui Emergency Management Agency, Herman Andaya, did not activate the sirens for fear that the population would mistake it for a tsunami warning and run in the wrong direction.
Andaya resigned “for health reasons,” but that does not invalidate a crucial question for the future: why isn't there a clear civil protection protocol in an area surrounded by potential natural threats?
Hawaiian Electric is already facing a lawsuit filed by local residents over evidence of at least one fire caused by a tree falling on a transformer. It should also be evaluated whether the assistance of federal authorities has been timely and whether the Biden administration acted quickly enough.
It is an irrefutable fact that preparation and readiness for natural disasters save lives. No effort should be spared.
Some cities around the world have taken exemplary actions to improve civil protection in the wake of unavoidable phenomena, such as earthquakes, fires, hurricanes or tornadoes. During a recent earthquake in California, the alert was timely activated. Mexico City has worked hard to create a seismic culture since the tragic earthquake of 1985.
The Maui victims are overwhelmingly native Hawaiians. History has taught us that climate tragedies hit minorities of color disproportionately. Reports have already emerged of unscrupulous people seeking to profit by buying land in the destroyed areas at ridiculous prices.
The federal government cannot allow the victims to be double victims, first of nature and then of the vultures that thrive on despair. They must act quickly and decisively on all fronts and learn the painful lessons of the tragedy.

Overthe coming year about 2.3 million Californians, a million of them children, are expected to lose Medi-Cal, which is health insurance coverage for low-income families - as the state redetermines all enrollees' eligibility after the pandemic.
In June alone, 225,000 people were disenrolled from the program, including 64,000 kids. An estimated 89% still qualify financially.
Joan Alker - a research professor at the McCourt School of Public Policy, and the executive director of the Center for Children and Families at Georgetown University - explained that many families either moved and haven't received the renewal letters, or they're having trouble with the paperwork.
"It's very complicated, understanding some of these notices that families are getting," said Alker. "Families try to call the call center and they can't get through. And unfortunately, often, the burden is falling on families to really try to push through this process."
Confusion is rampant because the system does not issue receipts that prove that documents have been received or notify people that their packets are being processed.
Help is available on the state Department of Health Care Services' website - keepmedi-calcoverage. org - and on the Children's Partnership website, AllInforHealth.org.
About 15 million Californians, including 5.7 million children, are enrolled in Medi-Cal. Kristen Golden Testa, director of Health Policy with the Children's
Partnership, said families need to be proactive.
"One: Make sure your county has your up-to-date contact information," said Testa. "Two: Be on the lookout in the mail for a yellow envelope, which is saying you need to renew and here's what you need to fill out. And send it back in."
Liza Davis, director of community engagement and advocacy at the Children's Partnership, noted that Medi-Cal eligibility also determines a variety of benefits for kids at school.
"It's really greater than just losing your Medi-Cal and then having to renew and, you know, having to delay an appointment," said Davis. "No, it's pretty consequential because there's a ripple effect and there are so many things that are connected to your Medi-Cal enrollment."

"Es muy complicado entender algunos de estos avisos que están recibiendo las familias. Intentan llamar al centro de llamadas y no pueden comunicarse. Y desafortunadamente, a menudo, la carga recae en las familias para tratar de impulsar este proceso," enfatizo también Alker.
La confusión es rampante porque el sistema no emite recibos que demuestren que se han recibido los documentos ni notifica a las personas que sus solicitudes están siendo procesadas. La ayuda está disponible en el sitio web del Departamento de Servicios de Atención Medica del estado keepmedi-calcoverage.org y en el sitio web de Children's Partnership, AllInforHealth.org. Alrededor de 15 millones de californianos, incluida la mitad de los niños del estado, están inscritos en Medi-Cal. Kristen Golden Testa de Children's Partnership dice que las familias deben ser proactivas.
Durante
el próximo año, se espera que alrededor de 2.3 millones de californianos, un millón de ellos niños, pierdan Medi-Cal, que es la cobertura de seguro médico para familias de bajos ingresos, ya que el estado vuelve a determinar la elegibilidad de todos los inscritos después de la pandemia Solo en junio, 225 mil personas abandonaron el programa, incluidos 64 mil niños. Se estima que el 89 % de ellos todavía califican financieramente. Joan Alker, del Centro para Niños y Familias de la Universidad de Georgetown, explica que muchas familias se mudaron y no recibieron las cartas de renovación o tienen problemas con el papeleo.
"Uno: Asegúrese de que su condado tenga su información de contacto actualizada. Dos: Este atento en el correo a un sobre amarillo, que dice que necesita renovar y lo que debe completar. Y envialo de vuelta," explico además Testa.
Liza Davis de Children's Partnership señala que la elegibilidad para Medi-Cal también determina una variedad de beneficios para los niños en la escuela.
"Es realmente mejor que simplemente perder su Medi-Cal y luego renovarlo y así, solo retrasar una cita, analizo Davis. No, es bastante importante porque hay un efecto domino y hay tantas cosas que están conectadas con su inscripción en Medi-Cal."

FUNCIONARIOS DE SALUD DETALLAN LAS INICIATIVAS PARA PROTEGER ACCESO A SERVICIOS DE SALUD
Con 15,5 millones de afiliados a Medi-Cal pendientes de renovación, las autoridades sanitarias y las organizaciones de base comunitaria están trabajando para garantizar que los californianos mantengan una cobertura continua.
Selen Ozturk Ethnic Media Services
de nativos americanos, 30 a 60% de los pacientes atendidos por las clínicas tribales son beneficiarios de Medi-Cal.
Entre
junio de 2023 y mayo de 2024, se volverá a determinar la elegibilidad de 15.5 millones de afiliados a Medi-Cal –un tercio de todos los californianos— como parte del “great unwinding” (salir de la fase emergencia) de personas afiliadas a Medicaid que se está produciendo en todo el país.
En una conferencia de prensa presentada por EMS and California Black Media, los directores de salud del estado y los líderes de las organizaciones de base comunitaria (CBO) explicaron cómo se están asegurando de que los californianos mantengan una cobertura continua y el impacto de la redeterminación hasta ahora en los pacientes de Medi-Cal – en particular en las poblaciones desatendidas o vulnerables.
Ofreciendo cobertura continua: Baja y transición de Medi-Cal
Yingjia Huang, directora adjunta de Beneficios de salud y elegibilidad para el Departamento de servicios de salud de california (DHCS), discutió los datos sobre las cifras de junio relativas a la reevaluación o predeterminación, que DHCS publicó el 7 de agosto.
En junio, el primer mes de desafiliaciones, el 21% –o 225,231 personas – de los más de un millón de californianos en proceso de renovación fueron desafiliados de Medi-Cal, Huang dijo. Por cada mes hasta mayo de 2024, DHCS anticipa que un millón de personas tendrán que hacer el proceso de re determinación para la renovación. De los dados de baja en junio, más de la mitad se identificaron como hispanos, 16% como blancos, 6% como negros y 2% AAPI.
Sin embargo, casi el 87% de las personas que fueron dadas de baja lo fue por razones de procedimiento, es decir, “porque el miembro no devolvió el paquete de renovación”, dijo Huang. Las personas dadas de baja por motivos de procedimiento tienen 90 días, desde junio hasta el 30 de septiembre, para devolver sus paquetes y ser readmitidas.
A través de un programa estatal puesto en marcha el pasado mes de junio, las personas dadas de baja o desafiliadas por tener mayores ingresos fueron inscritas automáticamente en Covered California, el mercado de servicios de salud del estado.
Jessica Altman, consejera delegada de Covered California (CC), dijo que de las personas inscritas automáticamente a Medi-Cal, un tercio no paga primas, dos tercios pagan 10 dólares o menos al mes y casi el 90% recibe ayuda financiera para el seguro médico.
Junto con una campaña de difusión de $ 25 millones lanzada por DHCS para compartir información sobre la renovación de Medi-Cal en medios impresos y digitales en 19 idiomas en todo el estado, Altman dijo que Covered California, también, ha estado compartiendo detalles acerca de la transición de Medi-Cal a través de la televisión, radio, medios sociales, campañas en medios digitales e impresas en idiomas como español, mandarín, cantonés, coreano y vietnamita.
Las organizaciones comunitarias se enfrentan a la redeterminación en primera línea
A través de su Proyecto de Navegadores de Inscripción de Salud, al que le fueron designados $ 60 millones a través de SB 154 en junio de 2022, DHCS ha financiado más de 150 CBO para ayudar a aquellos que enfrentan la cancelación de su afiliación a Medi-Cal a navegar el sistema para su redeterminación.
Louise McCarthy, Presidenta (CEO) de la Asociación de Clínicas Comunitarias del Condado de Los Ángeles (CCALAC), dijo que el Condado de LA – que tiene casi un tercio de la población de California – es el “canario en la mina de carbón” para la redeterminación en todo el estado. CCALAC comprende 133 organizaciones sin ánimo de lucro que atienden a 1.89 millones de angelinos cada año, el
64% de los cuales están en Medi-Cal.
“Los datos a nivel estatal coinciden con lo que está sucediendo aquí a nivel local”, dijo McCarthy. A pesar de las campañas de divulgación, muchos clientes de CCALAC no enviaban de regreso su documentación, “a menudo porque se habían mudado desde la pandemia y su dirección había cambiado”.
Rosario Arreola Pro, directora de operaciones de la Junta Indígena de Salud Rural de California (CRHIB), quien representa a 19 clínicas tribales de todo el estado, dijo que los impactos de la desprotección de la atención de salud están particularmente desatendidos para los nativos americanos en California. Aunque DHCS actualmente no tiene información en cuanto a la redeterminación en la comunidad
Por ello, según Pro, las medidas de CRHIB para garantizar la cobertura en este frente son urgentes. Entre sus medidas más cruciales se incluyen campañas de difusión por texto, teléfono, redes sociales y correo electrónico para recordar a los clientes que actualicen su información de contacto y abran su correo; garantizar que las visitas telefónicas sigan siendo reembolsables para las clínicas tribales, “especialmente las de zonas remotas donde Internet puede no ser fiable”; y proporcionar mensajeros en estas zonas para entregar el papeleo necesario.
La Dra. Seciah Aquino, directora ejecutiva de la Coalición Latina para una California Saludable (LCHS), añadió que medidas como éstas también son clave para garantizar la cobertura a los latinos, que representan el 53.2% de las personas dadas de baja de Medi-Cal hasta ahora.
“Seguiremos viendo cómo aumenta esa cifra”, mencionó, “y esto no está bien para los latinos, que aún se están recuperando de una pandemia devastadora. Nuestra salud es muy frágil”. En mayo, los reportes del CDPH revelaron que los latinos representan alrededor del 44% de los casos y el 42% de las muertes por COVID.
Temor y confusión en torno a la redeterminación de Medi-Cal
Aunque las campañas de comunicación están llegando a los hispanohablantes de todo el estado, LCHS -que representa a más del 40% de los latinos californianos, o más de 16 millones- ha descubierto que “todavía hay mucho miedo y confusión en términos de qué hacer”, continuó Aquino. “La gente entiende que estos cambios están llegando y están en curso, pero no entienden dónde y cómo darle seguimiento a sus procesos ni cómo podemos ayudarles”.
Los problemas de acceso al idioma y de desagregación (dar de baja) de información agravan estas brechas de comunicación.
“Nuestra comunidad no es un monolito y tenemos muchos indígenas mesoamericanos que no han podido recibir información”, dijo Aquino. Obtener información de las estadísticas de redeterminación del DHCS sobre estas comunidades específicamente es clave para la divulgación. “Cuando mantienes a la gente sana, mantienes tu economía sana”.
Mayra Álvarez, presidenta de Children’s Partnership, dijo que los jóvenes están entre los más vulnerables a la redeterminación, ya que 5,7 millones de niños -casi el 60% de los de todo el estado- dependen de Medi-Cal, y casi el 70% de ellos son niños de color. Entre los dos o tres millones de californianos que el DCHS ha estimado que pueden perder Medi-Cal, se calcula que hasta un millón son niños.
Aun cuando las cifras de desafiliación procesal son claras, las razones por las cuales esto está sucediendo siguen siendo en gran medida indeterminadas, señaló. Si bien los problemas de comunicación, como el acceso al idioma, impiden que las familias y los jóvenes reciban una atención continuada, las organizaciones comunitarias son fundamentales para abordar estos problemas sobre el terreno, y el Estado está ayudando a evitar que los californianos “se queden en la cuneta”, dijo Álvarez.
Por ejemplo, la legislación AB 2402, aprobada en agosto de 2022, garantiza la cobertura continua durante varios años para niños de cero a cinco años y elimina las barreras administrativas para acceder a la atención de salud, pero no entrará en vigor sino hasta 2025.
“Quince millones de nosotros dependemos de Medi-Cal, incluyendo más de la mitad de todos los niños”, añadió Álvarez. “Si una familia, un niño, una persona pierde la cobertura innecesariamente, eso es inaceptable. Evitar que los californianos se queden sin cobertura… es un esfuerzo de todos”.

HEALTH OFFICIALS, CBOS DETAIL EFFORTS TO PROTECT HEALTH CARE FOR 15.5 MILLION CALIFORNIANS
Selen Ozturk Ethnic Media Services
BetweenJune 2023 and May 2024, 15.5 million Medi-Cal enrollees — one-third of all Californians — will have their eligibility redetermined as part of the “great unwinding” of Medicaid enrollees underway nationwide.
At a briefing held by EMS and California Black Media, state health directors and leaders from community-based organizations (CBOs) explained how they are ensuring that Californians maintain continuous coverage and the impact of redetermination so far on Medi-Cal patients — particularly in underserved or vulnerable populations.
Providing continuous coverage: Medi-Cal disenrollments and transitions
Yingjia Huang, deputy director of Health Care Benefits and Eligibility for the California Department of Health Care Services (DHCS), discussed data on June redetermination numbers, which DHCS published on August 7.
In June, the first month of disenrollments, 21% — or 225,231 people — from the over one million Californians up for renewal were dropped from Medi-Cal, Huang said. For each month through May 2024, DHCS anticipates a similar one million up for renewal. Of those disenrolled in June, over half identified as Hispanic, 16% as white, 6% as Black and 2% AAPI.
However, nearly 87% of those disenrolled were dropped for procedural reasons, i.e. “because the member did not return the renewal packet,” said Huang. Those disenrolled procedurally have 90 days from June, through September 30, to return their packets to get reinstated.
Through a state program launched last June, those disenrolled due to higher income are automatically enrolled in Covered California, the state’s health care marketplace.
Jessica Altman, CEO of Covered California (CC), said that of those auto-enrolled from Medi-Cal, a third pay no premiums, two-thirds pay $10 or less monthly, and nearly 90% receive financial help for health insurance.
In tandem with a $25 million media outreach campaign launched by DHCS to share MediCal renewal information in print and digital media across 19 languages statewide, Altman said Covered California, too, has been sharing Medi-Cal transition details through television, radio, social media, digital, and print campaigns across languages like Spanish, Mandarin, Cantonese, Korean and Vietnamese.
CBOs navigate redetermination on the frontlines
Through its Health Enrollment Navigators Project, which was awarded $60 million through SB 154 in June 2022, DHCS has funded over 150 CBOs to help those facing disenrollment navigate redetermination.
Louise McCarthy, CEO of the Community Clinic Association of LA County (CCALAC), said that LA County — having nearly a third of California’s population — is the “canary in the coal mine” for redetermination statewide. CCALAC comprises 133 nonprofits serving 1.89 million Angelenos every year, 64% of which are on Medi-Cal.
“The data at the state level rings true with what’s happening here locally,” McCarthy said. Despite
outreach campaigns, many CCALAC clients weren’t returning paperwork, “often because they moved since the pandemic and their address changed.”
Rosario Arreola Pro, chief operations officer of the California Rural Health Indian Board (CRHIB) representing 19 tribal clinics statewide, said the
impacts of unprotected health care are particularly unaddressed for American Indians in California. Although DHCS currently has no data as to Native American redetermination, 30 to 60% of patients served by tribal clinics are Medi-Cal beneficiaries.
Thus, said Pro, CRHIB’s measures to ensure

coverage on this front are urgent. Its most crucial measures include text, phone, social media, and email outreach campaigns reminding clients to update their contact information and open their mail; ensuring that phone visits remain reimbursable for tribal clinics, “especially those in remote areas where internet may not be reliable”; and providing transporters in these areas to deliver necessary paperwork.
Dr. Seciah Aquino, executive director of the Latino Coalition for a Healthy California (LCHS), added that measures like these are also key to ensuring coverage for Latinos, who represent 53.2% of those disenrolled from Medi-Cal so far.
“We will continue to see that number rise,” she said, “and this is not okay for Latinos, who are still recovering from a devastating pandemic. Our health is very fragile.”
In May, CDPH data revealed that Latinos comprised about 44% of COVID cases and 42% of COVID deaths.
‘Fear and confusion’ around Medi-Cal redetermination
While communication campaigns are reaching Spanish speakers statewide, LCHS — which represents over 40% of Californian Latinos, or over 16 million — has found that “there is still a lot of fear and confusion in terms of what to do,” Aquino continued. “People understand that these changes are coming and ongoing, but don’t understand where to follow up and how we can help them.”
Language access and data disaggregation challenges worsen these communication gaps. “Our community is not a monolith, and we have many indigenous Mesoamericans who have not been able to receive information,” said Aquino. Getting DHCS redetermination numbers on these communities specifically is key to outreach. “When you keep people healthy, you keep your economy healthy.”

Mayra Alvarez, president of the Children’s Partnership, said youth are among those most vulnerable to redetermination, as 5.7 million children — nearly 60% of those statewide — rely on Medi-Cal, and nearly 70% of these are children of color. Among the two to three million Californians which DCHS has estimated may lose Medi-Cal, she estimates that up to 1 million are children.
Although procedural disenrollment numbers are clear, the reasons for them remain largely undetermined, she noted. While communication issues like language access hinder families and youth from continuous care, CBOs are key to addressing these challenges at the ground level and the state is helping prevent Californians from “falling through the cracks,” Alvarez said.
For example, AB 2402, passed in August 2022, ensures multi-year continuous coverage for children ages zero to five and removes procedural barriers to care, but it won’t be in effect until 2025.
“Fifteen million of us depend on Medi-Cal, including over half of all kids,” Alvarez added. “If one family, one child, one person loses coverage unnecessarily, that’s unacceptable. Keeping Californians from falling through the cracks … is an all-hands-on-deck effort.”

BACK-TO-SCHOOLERS FACE TEACHER SHORTAGES, POLARIZATION AND LEARNING GAPS
At an Aug. 18 EMS briefing, teachers and education officials discussed three challenges K-12 students face as they head back to school: teacher shortages, polarized curricula and pandemic-era learning gaps.
Selen Ozturk Ethnic Media Services
K-12 students returning to school this month face teacher shortages, pitched battles over curricula, and pandemic-era learning gaps, teachers and education officials explained at an August 18 briefing held by Ethnic Media Services.
Teacher Shortages
Some 233,000 thousand public school teachers left the profession between 2019 and 2021 alone, according to a U.S. Government Accountability Office analysis, while 41 out of 50 states and two territories (D.C. and the Virgin Islands) report a shortage of teachers, particularly in STEM.
Dr. Tuan Nguyen, associate professor in the College of Education at Kansas State University, explained that “teacher supply, retention and shortage in the United States are pieces of the same puzzle,” comprising a Gordian knot of vacancy — whereby teaching positions are posted but unfilled — and underqualification — whereby states lower certification requirements to fill these positions, or have qualified teachers teach out-of-subject.
With a small team of researchers, Nguyen tracked teacher shortage data across states and found that, nationally, “There are at least 36,500 vacant positions in the United States and that’s nothing to say of underqualified teachers,” which he estimates at 160,000. Compounding this shortage are twin issues of teacher supply and retention.
Dr. Tuan Nguyen, Assistant Professor in the College of Education at Kansas State University, discusses the challenges successive presidential administrations have faced in their efforts to recruit teachers, especially for STEM classes.
On the supply point, “There has been a substantial decline in people’s interest in becoming teachers,” said Nguyen. He cited a 40% decline from 700,000 teacher prep program enrollees in 2009, to 400,000 in 2015.
While this decline continues unchecked, the situation has become uniquely grim for teachers in the STEM fields of science, technology, engineering and math: in 2010 there were 32,000 teachers certified to teach STEM subjects; in 2019 there were 22,000. Teachers who do enter the profession, meanwhile, are also leaving sooner and in larger numbers than in previous years.
Before the pandemic, explained Nguyen, about 8% of U.S. teachers left the profession annually, but since then the rate has skyrocketed nationally; current figures are, for example, 22% in Alaska, 12% in Arkansas and Illinois, and 12% in North and South Carolina.
Polarized Curricula, Book Bans
Compounding the challenges confronting the nation’s public schools is the increasingly intense fight over curricula, including the growing wave of book bans nationwide.
Dr. Shaun Harper, provost professor at the University of Southern California Rossier School of Education and the USC Marshall School of Business, pointed out that “44 states have introduced bills since January 2021 that have aimed to ban critical race theory” – despite the fact that CTR is not being taught in K-12 classrooms – with 18 of these states having passed such legislation.
Florida governor and GOP presidential candidate Ron DeSantis signed a bill last May banning public colleges and universities from funding DEI programs.
The bill “has created a replicable blueprint for other states across the country,” said Harper. “It’s a serious threat to our democracy when we deny young people the educational opportunity to learn about America’s racial past and present.”
Kasey Meehan, Freedom to Read program director at PEN America, said this replicable blueprint applies to the ongoing rise of book bans as well, which she called an “‘Ed scare’ campaign … interfering with stu-

En una sesión informativa de EMS el 18 de agosto, maestros y funcionarios de educación discutieron tres desafíos que enfrentan los estudiantes K-12 cuando regresan a la escuela: escasez de maestros, planes de estudio polarizados y brechas de aprendizaje en la era de la pandemia.
licano, Ron DeSantis, firmó un proyecto de ley en mayo pasado que prohíbe a los colegios y universidades públicos financiar programas DEI.
El proyecto de ley “ha creado un modelo replicable para otros estados del país”, dijo Harper. "Es una grave amenaza para nuestra democracia cuando negamos a los jóvenes la oportunidad educativa de aprender sobre el pasado y el presente racial de Estados Unidos".
dents’ rights; undermining the role of teachers, librarians, professors, other educators and administrators … and sowing division within our communities.”
Kasey Meehan, Freedom to Read Program Director at PEN America, says the current climate of censorship, including book bans, is a direct response to the 2020 and 2021 efforts towards inclusivity.
Another Florida bill, in effect since July 2022, mandates that all classroom books be pre-approved by the Department of Education or vetted by a media specialist trained by the Department. Violating teachers risk losing their license or being charged with a felony. A Texas bill in effect this September will require public school book vendors to pre-rate all books as “sexually explicit material, sexually relevant material, or no rating” before distribution.
Meehan said 71% of books involved in book-banning efforts like these “are intended for young adult audiences or even younger.” PEN reports that the first half of the 2022-2023 school year alone saw “over 1,400 instances of individual books being banned. This equates to over 800 unique titles that are being removed from access for students in schools. This is an increase from the prior six months, and (in an upcoming September report) we expect to see increases in the next six months.”
Learning Gaps, Safety Fears
During the pandemic, students lost about a third of the learning they would have received during a normal school year, a 2023 meta-analysis published in the journal Nature found — resulting in learning regressions which are severest among low-income youth.
That includes the large number of Latino families with students enrolled in LA Unified, one of the nation’s largest school districts where Latinos account for 74% of the overall student population.
Evelyn Aleman is the founder of the LA County parent advocacy group Our Voice: Communities for Quality Education. She says student safety is directly tied to learning loss and ranks as the number one concern for Latino parents.
Many Latino parents feel that they are not welcome in their school communities, in large part due to racism, and as a result they hesitate to advocate for their children, says Evelyn Aléman, Founder of Our Voice: Communities for Quality Education.
“They want safety from drugs on their campuses. … They want intervention and awareness campaigns … they live in communities that have high crime, and homelessness … and most of their children use public transportation or walk to school, but they don’t feel safe having their children walk home.”
Parents’ safety fears also extend to COVID, she added, given that the virus “is still around, and many families live in multigenerational households, and many have chronic illnesses.”
A perceived lack of safety by the parents worsens absenteeism on the part of students, said Aleman, adding the lack of open communication and at times open hostility by school staff or faculty toward parents also plays a role.
“I just had a mom say to me, ‘I feel like I was treated so badly… because I don’t speak the language.’ It was racism,” said Aleman, recalling her exchange with one LA Unified mother. “A lot of parents feel that way. School climate is a big one for us.”
Selen Ozturk Ethnic Media Services
Kasey Meehan, directora del programa Libertad para Leer en PEN America, dijo que este plan replicable también se aplica al aumento actual de las prohibiciones de libros, a lo que llamó una “campaña de miedo a la educación”… interfiriendo con los derechos de los estudiantes; socavando el papel de los maestros, bibliotecarios, catedráticos, otros educadores y administradores... y sembrando división dentro de nuestras comunidades”.
Los
estudiantes de K-12 que regresan a la escuela este mes enfrentan escasez de maestros, batallas campales sobre los planes de estudio y brechas de aprendizaje de la era de la pandemia, explicaron maestros y funcionarios de educación en una sesión informativa celebrada el 18 de agosto por Ethnic Media Services.
Escasez de Maestros
Unos 233.000 mil docentes de escuelas públicas abandonaron la profesión solo entre 2019 y 2021, según un análisis de la Oficina de Responsabilidad Gubernamental de Estados Unidos, mientras que 41 de 50 estados y dos territorios (D.C. y las Islas Vírgenes) reportan una escasez de maestros, particularmente en STEM.
El Dr. Tuan Nguyen, profesor asociado de la Facultad de Educación de la Universidad Estatal de Kansas, explicó que “la oferta, la retención y la escasez de maestros en Estados Unidos son piezas del mismo rompecabezas”, que comprende un nudo gordiano de vacantes — donde los puestos de maestros se publican pero no se cubren — y la subcalificación —donde los estados reducen los requisitos de certificación para cubrir estos puestos, o hacen que maestros calificados enseñen fuera de sus materias.
Con un pequeño equipo de investigadores, Nguyen rastreó los datos sobre la escasez de docentes en todos los estados y descubrió que, a nivel nacional, “hay al menos 36.500 puestos vacantes en Estados Unidos y eso no tiene nada que ver con los docentes poco calificados”, que estima en 160.000.
A esta escasez se suman los problemas de oferta y retención de docentes.
El Dr. Tuan Nguyen, profesor asistente en la Facultad de Educación de la Universidad Estatal de Kansas, analiza los desafíos que han enfrentado las sucesivas administraciones presidenciales en sus esfuerzos por reclutar maestros, especialmente para las clases STEM.
En cuanto a la oferta, "ha habido una disminución sustancial en el interés de la gente por convertirse en maestros", dijo Nguyen. Citó una disminución del 40% de 700.000 inscritos en el programa de preparación para maestro en 2009 a 400.000 en 2015. Si bien esta disminución continúa sin control, la situación se ha vuelto especialmente sombría para los maestros en los campos STEM de ciencia, tecnología, ingeniería y matemáticas: en 2010 había 32.000 maestros certificados para impartir materias STEM; en 2019 fueron 22.000. Mientras tanto, los maestros que ingresan a la profesión también la abandonan antes y en mayor número que en años anteriores.
Antes de la pandemia, explicó Nguyen, alrededor del 8% de los maestros estadounidenses abandonaban la profesión anualmente, pero desde entonces la tasa se ha disparado a nivel nacional; las cifras actuales son, por ejemplo, el 22% en Alaska, el 12% en Arkansas e Illinois, y el 12% en Carolina del Norte y del Sur.
Currículos polarizados, prohibiciones de libros
Para agravar los desafíos que enfrentan las escuelas públicas del país está la lucha cada vez más intensa por los planes de estudio, incluida la creciente ola de prohibiciones de libros en todo el país.
El Dr. Shaun Harper, profesor rector de la Escuela de Educación Rossier de la Universidad del Sur de California y de la Escuela de Negocios Marshall de la USC, señaló que “44 estados han presentado proyectos de ley desde enero de 2021 que tenían como objetivo prohibir la teoría racial crítica” – a pesar de que TRC no se enseña en las aulas K-12 (18 de estos estados han aprobado dicha legislación).
El gobernador de Florida y candidato presidencial repub-
Kasey Meehan, directora del programa Libertad para leer de PEN America, dice que el clima actual de censura, incluida la prohibición de libros, es una respuesta directa a los esfuerzos de 2020 y 2021 hacia la inclusión. Otro proyecto de ley de Florida, vigente desde julio de 2022, exige que todos los libros de clase sean aprobados previamente por el Departamento de Educación o examinados por un especialista en medios capacitado por el Departamento. Los maestros infractores corren el riesgo de perder su licencia o ser acusados de un delito grave. Un proyecto de ley de Texas vigente en septiembre exigirá que los vendedores de libros de las escuelas públicas precalifiquen todos los libros como “material sexualmente explícito, material sexualmente relevante o sin calificación” antes de su distribución.
Meehan dijo que el 71% de los libros involucrados en esfuerzos de prohibición de libros como estos "están destinados a un público adulto joven o incluso más joven".
PEN informa que solo en la primera mitad del año escolar 2022-2023 se produjeron “más de 1.400 casos de prohibición de libros individuales. Esto equivale a más de 800 títulos únicos que se están eliminando del acceso de los estudiantes en las escuelas. Este es un aumento con respecto a los seis meses anteriores y (en un próximo informe de septiembre) esperamos ver aumentos en los próximos seis meses”.
Brechas de aprendizaje, temores de seguridad Durante la pandemia, los estudiantes perdieron alrededor de un tercio del aprendizaje que habrían recibido durante un año escolar normal, según encontró un metaanálisis de 2023 publicado en la revista Nature, lo que resultó en regresiones en el aprendizaje que son más severas entre los jóvenes de bajos ingresos.
Eso incluye la gran cantidad de familias latinas con estudiantes matriculados en el Distrito Unificado de Los Ángeles, uno de los distritos escolares más grandes del país donde los latinos representan el 74% de la población estudiantil general.
Evelyn Alemán es la fundadora del grupo de defensa de padres del condado de Los Ángeles Our Voice: Communities for Quality Education. Ella dice que la seguridad de los estudiantes está directamente relacionada con la pérdida de aprendizaje y es la principal preocupación de los padres latinos.
Muchos padres latinos sienten que no son bienvenidos en sus comunidades escolares, en gran parte debido al racismo, y como resultado dudan en defender a sus hijos, dice Evelyn Aléman, fundadora de Our Voice: Communities for Quality Education.
“Quieren seguridad frente a las drogas en sus campus. … Quieren campañas de intervención y concientización… viven en comunidades con altos índices de criminalidad y falta de vivienda… y la mayoría de sus hijos usan el transporte público o caminan a la escuela, pero no se sienten seguros si sus hijos caminan a casa”.
Los temores de los padres por la seguridad también se extienden al COVID, añadió, dado que el virus “todavía existe y muchas familias viven en hogares multigeneracionales y muchos tienen enfermedades crónicas”.
La percepción de falta de seguridad por parte de los padres empeora el ausentismo de los estudiantes, afirmó Alemán, añade que la falta de comunicación abierta y, en ocasiones, la hostilidad abierta por parte del personal de la escuela o los profesores hacia los padres también influye.
“Una madre me dijo: 'Siento que me trataron tan mal... porque no hablo el idioma'. Fue racismo”, dijo Alemán, recordando su intercambio con una madre de LA Unified.
“Muchos padres se sienten así. El clima escolar es muy importante para nosotros”.

LAKE ARROWHEAD COMMUNITY REELS AFTER WOMAN MURDERED OVER PRIDE FLAG
Suzanne Potter
California News Service
Community members in the Lake Arrowhead area are planning to distribute free rainbow flags this week - in memory of Lauri Carleton, a 66-year-old shopkeeper shot to death on Friday August 18 by a young man who demanded she take down the store's Pride flag. Carleton's husband chased the suspect and tracked him until sheriff's deputies arrived; the suspect died in a confrontation with officers.
Michael Feddersen, a friend of the victim, said the rainbow flags at Carleton's 'Mag.pi' clothing store in Cedar Glen had been ripped down before.
"When I was at the site of the murder, a really good friend of decades, as he's crying, he said, 'I begged her not to put those flags back up," Feddersen said. "And she refused, and it cost her her life.'"
Carleton was an outspoken ally of the LGBTQ+ community. The group Equality California issued a statement condemning the killing and decrying a sharp increase in anti-LGBTQ rhetoric, violence and policies. A recent report from the Anti-Defamation League cited more than 350 incidents of anti-LGBTQ hate and violence in the U.S. from April 2022 to June 2023.
Feddersen added the mountain community is divided between more conservative and more liberal residents. Many, like Carlton, are from

"Cuando estaba en el lugar del asesinato, un muy buen amigo de décadas, mientras lloraba, dijo: "Le rogué que no volviera a poner esas banderas", dijo Feddersen. "Y ella se negó, y eso le costó la vida".'"
Carleton fue una aliada abierta de la comunidad LGBTQ+. El grupo Equality California emitió una declaración condenando el asesinato y denunciando un fuerte aumento de la retórica, la violencia y las políticas anti-LGBTQ. Un informe reciente de la Liga Antidifamación citó más de 350 incidentes de odio y violencia anti-LGBTQ en los EE. UU. desde abril de 2022 hasta junio de 2023.
Los Angeles and purchased second homes in the area. Feddersen said now mourners are calling on everyone to fly the Pride flag in Carleton's honor.
"We have been afraid to fly rainbow flag ourselves. We didn't, because we were scared - and we didn't want confrontation. But we're going to fly the rainbow flag," he explained. "It's time to take the risk and stand up for what's right."

CALIFORNIA POLICE BODY CAMERA FOOTAGE CAN’T TAKE THE PLACE OF WITNESS TESTIMONY, COURT RULES
More California police departments are deploying body cameras. A new court ruling restricts how prosecutors can use footage of witness accounts at trial.
Nigel Duara CalMatters
Whena woman refused to testify against a man accused of assaulting her, a Los Angeles County judge used the accusations she made the night of the incident that were recorded on a police officer’s body camera.
Last week, the California Supreme Court unanimously ruled that the judge erred by using the body camera footage to stand in for the woman’s testimony. Doing so, the court ruled, denied the accused man a chance to confront his accuser in court.
“We emphasize that a defendant’s due process right to confront testimonial witnesses against him is not absolute,” the high court ruled in an opinion issued Monday.
“What cannot be done, however, is reducing the analysis to a single determination that hinges solely on whether a statement qualifies as a spontaneous statement.”
The ruling comes as body cameras have become more common in California police departments, most recently this year in San Bernardino County.
While body cameras are not mandatory among California agencies, CalMatters surveyed large law enforcement agencies last year and found that some of the largest police and sheriff’s departments in the state have given body cameras to all of their uniformed officers.
Body camera footage of alleged criminal incidents can be used as evidence in court and in disciplinary proceedings against police officers. The new ruling limits its use with respect to statements made on camera.
Prosecutors, including the state Department of Justice, had urged the court to admit the body camera footage, partly because it related to a suspect who was on probation.
Statements made outside of court that cannot be verified at trial are called hearsay, and are generally prohibited. But there are exceptions, one of them being “spontaneous statements,” which are statements made in the moment that don’t leave time for deliberation. Courts have found that these statements tend to accurately reflect what a person was thinking when they said something.
In the case before the Supreme Court this month, a woman called 911 in March 2019, reporting that someone was trying to break into the house where she was working as an aide to a person with a disability.
Responding officers found damage to the front door and Dontrae R. Gray in the back of the house. The woman had bruises and a scratch on her face, and told an officer wearing a body camera that Gray kicked in the door and assaulted her. Gray was on probation for a previous, unrelated assault.
A few days later, the woman partially recanted her story, which is common among victims of intimate partner violence, and refused to appear at Gray’s criminal trial despite a subpoena. Los Angeles County prosecutors tried to introduce the body camera evidence, but a judge refused to allow it.
The criminal case was dismissed, but prosecutors asked a judge to revoke Gray’s probation, and again tried to use the body camera footage as evidence. This time, it worked.
CORTE DICTAMINA QUE LAS GRABACIONES DE LAS CÁMARAS CORPORALES DE LA POLICÍA EN CALIFORNIA NO PUEDEN REEMPLAZAR EL TESTIMONIO DE LOS TESTIGOS
Más departamentos de Policía en California están desplegando el uso de cámaras corporales. Un nuevo fallo judicial restringe la forma en que los fiscales pueden usar las imágenes de los relatos de los testigos en el juicio. ESPAÑOL
agredió. Gray estaba en libertad condicional por un asalto anterior no relacionado.
Unos días después, la mujer se retractó parcialmente de su historia, que es común entre las víctimas de violencia doméstica, y se negó a comparecer en el juicio penal de Gray a pesar de una citación. Los fiscales del condado de Los Ángeles intentaron presentar la evidencia de la cámara corporal del agente, pero un juez se negó a permitirlo.
El caso penal fue desestimado, pero los fiscales le pidieron a un juez que revocara la libertad condicional de Gray y nuevamente intentaron usar las imágenes de la cámara corporal como evidencia. Esta vez, funcionó.
Las imágenes de la cámara corporal son una ‘oportunidad única’
Body camera footage a ‘unique opportunity’
The judge at Gray’s probation revocation hearing ruled that the woman’s statements in the body camera footage indeed qualified as a spontaneous statement, revoked Gray’s probation and ordered him to serve a suspended sentence of seven years in prison.
“The court actually has the unique opportunity to actually see her, hear her and see her,” Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Renee Korn, according to trial transcripts cited on appeal. “It’s not just an audiotape. It’s not just the reiteration of an officer of these statements.
“Rather, it’s actual video footage of who she is and how she presented at the time. (It) gives the court ample basis to find the defendant in violation of probation.”
On appeal, Gray said the decision to introduce the body camera footage as testimony violated his due process rights. State prosecutors replied in briefs to a state appellate court that due process rights at probation hearings are “flexible.”
“Probationers at revocation hearings are not entitled to the full array of constitutional rights available to defendants at criminal trials,” prosecutors led by Attorney General Rob Bonta wrote, “because probationers, having been validly convicted of crimes, have already been afforded the full panoply of constitutional trial rights in the criminal proceedings that resulted in their convictions.”
A California appellate court agreed and affirmed the decision to revoke his probation. Then the case went to the state Supreme Court.
California rulings on probation revocation
Previous probation revocation cases relying solely on paper evidence offered varying results.
In one 1981 case, the Supreme Court rejected prosecutors’ use of a trial court transcript in lieu of a witness’s testimony. Another case affirmed prosecutors’ use of hotel and car rental receipts to prove a defendant had broken the rules of his probation by traveling out of state.
Last week, the high court agreed that defendants have the right to due process, including the right to confront their accuser.
“The Attorney General asserts that the particular reliability and unique nature of spontaneous statements make them categorically admissible under the due process clause, without requiring a further finding of good cause or a balancing,” the court ruled. “We reject this categorical approach.”
The Supreme Court sent the case back to the Second Appellate District.

Cuandouna mujer se negó a testificar contra un hombre acusado de agredirla, un juez del condado de Los Ángeles utilizó las acusaciones que hizo la noche del incidente que fueron grabadas por la cámara corporal de un oficial de Policía.
La semana pasada, la Corte Suprema de California dictaminó por unanimidad que el juez cometió un error al usar las imágenes de la cámara corporal para sustituir el testimonio de la mujer. Al hacerlo, dictaminó el tribunal, le negó al acusado la oportunidad de confrontar a su acusador en el tribunal.
“Hacemos hincapié en que el derecho al debido proceso de un acusado para confrontar a los testigos que testimonian en su contra no es absoluto”, dictaminó el tribunal en una opinión emitida el lunes.
“Sin embargo, lo que no se puede hacer es reducir el análisis a una sola determinación que dependa únicamente de si una declaración califica como una declaración espontánea”.
El fallo se produce cuando las cámaras corporales se han vuelto más comunes en los departamentos de Policía de California, más recientemente este año en el condado de San Bernardino.
Si bien las cámaras corporales no son obligatorias entre las agencias de California, CalMatters encuestó a grandes agencias de aplicación de la ley el año pasado y descubrió que algunos de los departamentos de Policía y del Sheriff más grandes del estado han entregado cámaras corporales a todos sus agentes uniformados.
Las imágenes de la cámara corporal de presuntos incidentes delictivos se pueden utilizar como prueba en los tribunales y en procedimientos disciplinarios contra agentes de Policía. La nueva sentencia limita su uso con respecto a las declaraciones hechas en cámara.
Los fiscales, incluido el Departamento de Justicia del estado, instaron al tribunal a admitir las imágenes de la cámara corporal, en parte porque se relacionaban con un sospechoso que estaba en libertad condicional.
Las declaraciones hechas fuera de la corte que no se pueden verificar en el juicio se llaman rumores y generalmente están prohibidas. Pero hay excepciones, una de ellas son las “declaraciones espontáneas”, que son declaraciones hechas en el momento que no dejan tiempo para la deliberación. Los tribunales han determinado que estas declaraciones tienden a reflejar con precisión lo que una persona estaba pensando cuando dijo algo.
En el caso ante la Corte Suprema este mes, una mujer llamó al 911 en marzo de 2019 e informó que alguien estaba tratando de entrar a la casa donde trabajaba como ayudante de una persona con discapacidad.
Los oficiales que respondieron encontraron daños en la puerta principal y Dontrae R. Gray en la parte trasera de la casa. La mujer tenía moretones y un rasguño en la cara, y le dijo a un oficial que llevaba una cámara corporal que Gray pateó la puerta y la
El juez en la audiencia de revocación de la libertad condicional de Gray dictaminó que las declaraciones de la mujer en las imágenes de la cámara corporal calificaban como una declaración espontánea, revocó la libertad condicional de Gray y le ordenó cumplir una sentencia condicional de siete años de prisión.
“La corte en realidad tiene la oportunidad única de verla, escucharla y verla”, dijo la jueza de la Corte Superior del condado de Los Ángeles, Renee Korn, según las transcripciones del juicio citadas en la apelación. “No es sólo una cinta de audio. No se trata sólo de la reiteración de un oficial de estas declaraciones”.
“Más bien, son imágenes de video reales de quién es ella y cómo se presentó en ese momento. (Esto) le da a la corte una base amplia para encontrar al acusado en violación de la libertad condicional”. En la apelación, Gray dijo que la decisión de presentar las imágenes de la cámara corporal como testimonio violó sus derechos al debido proceso. Los fiscales estatales respondieron en escritos a un tribunal de apelaciones estatal que los derechos al debido proceso en las audiencias de libertad condicional son “flexibles”.
“Las personas en libertad condicional en las audiencias de revocación no tienen derecho a la gama completa de derechos constitucionales disponibles para los acusados en los juicios penales”, escribieron los fiscales encabezados por el Fiscal General Rob Bonta, “porque las personas en libertad condicional, habiendo sido válidamente condenados por delitos, ya han recibido la panoplia completa de los derechos de juicio constitucional en los procesos penales que dieron lugar a sus condenas”. Un tribunal de apelaciones de California estuvo de acuerdo y confirmó la decisión de revocar su libertad condicional. Luego, el caso pasó a la Corte Suprema del estado.
Fallos de California sobre la revocación de la libertad condicional
Los casos anteriores de revocación de la libertad condicional que se basaban únicamente en pruebas en papel ofrecieron resultados variables.
En un caso de 1981, la Corte Suprema rechazó el uso por parte de los fiscales de una transcripción del tribunal de primera instancia en lugar del testimonio de un testigo. Otro caso afirmó que los fiscales usaron recibos de alquiler de automóviles y hoteles para probar que un acusado había violado las reglas de su libertad condicional al viajar fuera del estado.
La semana pasada, el alto tribunal acordó que los acusados tienen derecho al debido proceso, incluido el derecho a confrontar a su acusador.
“El Fiscal General afirma que la confiabilidad particular y la naturaleza única de las declaraciones espontáneas las hacen categóricamente admisibles bajo la cláusula del debido proceso, sin requerir una determinación adicional de buena causa o un equilibrio”, dictaminó el tribunal. “Rechazamos este enfoque categórico”.
La Corte Suprema devolvió el caso al Segundo Distrito de Apelaciones.

EARTHTALK Q&A: ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT OF SPAM
Dear EarthTalk: Is it true that spam email takes a huge toll on the environment? – P.L., Bern, NC
Roddy Scheer & Doug Moss EarthTalk
Ifyou are among the 92 percent of Americans who use email as a means of communication, you are a recipient of unsolicited batch emails called “spam.” Every day, upwards of 14.5 billion spam emails are sent globally. They may seem harmless on the surface, but the storage, sorting and transmission of unnecessary spam emails consume copious amounts of energy, contributing to greenhouse gas emissions.
Emails may seem to appear somewhat magically on a phone or laptop, but any kind of electronic request actually requires a physical touchpoint, called a data center, for the information to be transmitted. Data centers need enormous amounts of electricity to function. Everything, from the servers to the infrastructure to cool the extensive computer systems, is powered by electricity. In 2014, data centers in the United States consumed 70 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity which is equivalent to around two percent of all annual American electricity consumption (the amount of electricity that data centers consume today is likely far higher). Electricity is frequently generated from fossil fuels, and fossil fuels release greenhouse gasses into the atmosphere when burned. A high demand for electricity from data centers significantly contributes to the high volume of greenhouse gas emissions.
Therefore, every email sent and received has a carbon footprint. Mike Berners-Lee, a professor at Lancaster University, determined that each spam email has a carbon footprint of 0.3g of carbon dioxide. While a spam email’s carbon footprint is actually less than the average non-spam email’s carbon footprint, spam email accounts for the majority of all emails sent, according to some reports—and volume matters. One spam email has the same carbon footprint as driving just three feet in a car, but the total annual volume of spam has the same carbon footprint as driving around the world 1.6 million times.

centers for long periods of time, filter spam and complete basic processing and transmission of messages, spam email is estimated to consume 22 billion kilowatthours annually. The same amount of energy could power 2.3 million homes in the United States. And assuming the electricity is coming from fossil fuel sources, 2.6 billion trees would have to be planted every year to offset the pollution.
Luckily, spam is unnecessary and there are steps you can take to limit its presence in your own inbox, and to make your inbox greener. Deleting emails, clearing your spam inbox regularly, and unsubscribing from unwanted subscriptions reduces the amount of data volume being transmitted between servers and stored, which reduces demand for electrical energy. You can also choose a cloud provider, like Gmail or Microsoft Outlook, that has pledged to make their data centers carbon neutral or more environmentally friendly. Green cloud providers use a renewable electricity source or have vastly improved the electrical effi-
ciency of their data centers. In choosing your cloud provider, take a look at Brainwave’s ranking of the “Greenest Clouds.” The impact of some of the more major cloud providers going green has had a tangible impact: while the volume of spam email has significantly increased over time, the amount of electricity spam email consumes annually has remained relatively consistent in the past few years.

Siusted se encuentra entre el 92% de los estadounidenses que utilizan el correo electrónico como medio de comunicación, es un receptor de correos electrónicos masivos no solicitados llamados "spam". Cada día se envían más de 14.500 millones de correos spam en todo el mundo. A primera vista pueden parecer inofensivos, pero el almacenamiento, la clasificación y la transmisión de mensajes innecesarios consumen grandes cantidades de energía y contribuyen a las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero. Puede parecer que los correos electrónicos aparecen como por arte de magia en un teléfono o un portátil, pero cualquier tipo de solicitud electrónica requiere en realidad un punto de contacto físico, llamado centro de datos, para que la información se transmita. Los centros de datos necesitan enormes cantidades de electricidad para funcionar. Todo, desde los servidores hasta la infraestructura para refrigerar los extensos sistemas informáticos, funciona con electricidad. En 2014, los centros de datos de Estados Unidos con-
sumieron 70.000 millones de kilovatios-hora de electricidad, lo que equivale a alrededor del dos por ciento de todo el consumo anual de electricidad estadounidense (es probable que la cantidad de electricidad que consumen los centros de datos en la actualidad sea mucho mayor). La electricidad suele generarse a partir de combustibles fósiles, y éstos liberan gases de efecto invernadero a la atmósfera cuando se queman. La elevada demanda de electricidad de los centros de datos contribuye significativamente al alto volumen de emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero.
Por tanto, cada correo electrónico enviado y recibido tiene una huella de carbono.
Mike Berners-Lee, profesor de la Universidad de Lancaster, determinó que cada correo electrónico de spam tiene una huella de carbono de 0,3 g de dióxido de carbono. Aunque la huella de carbono de un correo electrónico de spam es menor que la de un correo electrónico normal, el spam representa la mayoría de los correos electrónicos enviados, según algunos informes, y su volumen es importante. Un correo electrónico de spam tiene la misma huella de carbono que conducir un metro en coche, pero el volumen anual total de spam tiene la misma huella de carbono que
Entre la energía necesaria para recopilar direcciones, almacenar mensajes no leídos en centros de datos durante largos periodos de tiempo, filtrar el spam y completar el procesamiento básico y la transmisión de mensajes, se calcula que el spam consume 22.000 millones de kilovatios-hora al año. La misma cantidad de energía podría abastecer a 2,3 millones de hogares en Estados Unidos. Y suponiendo que la electricidad proceda de fuentes de combustibles fósiles, habría que plantar 2.600 millones de árboles al año para compensar la contaminación.
Por suerte, el spam es innecesario y hay medidas que puedes tomar para limitar su presencia en tu bandeja de entrada y hacerla más ecológica. Borrar correos electrónicos, limpiar la bandeja de spam con regularidad y darse de baja de suscripciones no deseadas reduce el volumen de datos que se transmiten entre servidores y se almacenan, lo que reduce la demanda de energía eléctrica. También puedes elegir un proveedor de nube, como Gmail o Microsoft Outlook, que se haya comprometido a que sus centros de datos sean neutros en carbono o más respetuosos con el medio ambiente. Los proveedores de nubes verdes utilizan una fuente de electricidad renovable o han mejorado enormemente la eficiencia eléctrica de sus centros de datos. Al elegir su proveedor de nube, eche un vistazo a la clasificación de Brainwave de las "nubes más ecológicas". El impacto de que algunos de los proveedores de nube más importantes se hayan vuelto ecológicos ha tenido una repercusión tangible: mientras que el volumen de correo electrónico basura ha aumentado significativamente con el tiempo, la cantidad de electricidad que consume anualmente el correo electrónico basura se ha mantenido relativamente constante en los últimos años.

Notice of Petition to Administer Estate of Stella Garcia
Case No. 23PR195340
1.To all heirs, beneficiaries,
creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may be interested in the will or estate, or both, of Stella Garcia.
2. A Petition for Probate has been filed by Rhonda Gamez in the Superior Court of California, County of Santa Clara.
3.The Petition for Probate requests that Rhonda Gamez be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent.
5. The petition requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administer of Estate Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take any actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consent to the proposed action.)
The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person Files and objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority. 6. A hearing on the petition will be held in this court as follows: October 05, 2023, at 9:01am, Dept. 2, located at 191 North First Street, San Jose, CA 95113. 7 If you object to the granting of this petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney. 8. If you are a creditor or contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either:
1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or 2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code. Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law. 9. You may examine the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form
DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.

1. If a parent of the minor appears without counsel and is unable to afford counsel, the Court must appoint counsel for the parent, unless the parent knowingly and intelligently waives the right to be represented by counsel. The Court will not appoint the same attorney to represent both the minor and his parent.
2. The court may appoint either the public defender or private counsel. If private counsel is appointed, he or she will receive a reasonable sum for compensation and expenses, the amount of which will be determined by the court. The amount must be paid by the real parties in interest, but not the minor, in such proportions as the court believes to be just. If, however, the court finds that any of the real parties in interest cannot afford counsel, the amount will be paid by the county.
3. The court may continue the proceeding for not more than thirty (30) days as necessary to appoint counsel to become acquainted with the case.

Duranteesta semana iniciamos un periodo de tensión, siete planetas estarán retrógrados.
El efecto de estos aspectos planetarios, se hará sentir lo que resta del mes de agosto y durante todo el mes de septiembre.
El pasado mes de julio, Venus entró en retrogradación, y desde esas fechas hemos sido testigos de inclemencias del tiempo, incendios y mucha tensión. En las semanas venideras, estarán retrógrados: Mercurio, Venus, Júpiter, Saturno, Urano, Neptuno, y Plutón. Se auguran semanas complicadas en las cuales pueden ocurrir: Incendios, temblores, huracanes, accidentes, violencia, balaceras, y congestiones de tráfico interminables.
No será éste, un buen momento para tomar decisiones importantes, hacer compras de mucho valor o cambiar de empleo. Ya que las cosas pudieran salir contrarias a nuestros deseos. La retrogradación de Mercurio y Venus, serán las que más nos afecten, pues además de traer malos augurios, tienden a afectar emocionalmente a la gran mayoría.
Se sentirá un ambiente de tensión, se debe evitar el conducir con prisa, se deben evitar discusiones y pleitos, éstos podrían suced-
er de un momento a otro, y una pequeña chispa puede hacer que todo se ponga peor. Y como dice el dicho” A mal tiempo buena cara” y "Haga el bien sin mirar a quién”.
¿Qué podemos hacer para protegernos?
1. Actúe con calma y serenidad, evite todo
tipo de altercados.
2. Rece diariamente oraciones y plegarias. De ese modo influenciará la ayuda celestial.
3. Sea cortés y extremadamente cuidadoso al conducir.
4. Tenga cuidado con el fuego.
5. Vigile su alimentación, procure una dieta saludable.
6. Tenga precaución en sus desplazamientos, accidentes domésticos suelen ocurrir.
7. Evite los sitios demasiado concurridos y los sitios oscuros.
8. Sea precavido al maniobrar herramientas y objetos cortopunzantes.
9. No haga inversiones, ni se involucre en negocios arriesgados.
10. Hágase un enjuague con una hierba de su preferencia. Esto le ayudará a limpiar su
aura, y le otorgará una dosis extra de "paciencia".
El planeta que entra en retrogradación con mayor frecuencia es Mercurio, cada cuatro meses transita retrógrado, por un ciclo de duración de aproximadamente tres semanas. Durante ese lapso suelen ocurrir todo tipo de retrasos, pérdida de tiempo, confusión, inconvenientes, olvidos, accidentes, incendios, atentados, discusiones, hechos violentos, y malos entendidos; el comercio, la comunicación y el transporte, se verán afectados durante la retrogradación de Mercurio. Es un periodo de reorganización, y muchas veces se tendrán que realizar las mismas tareas dos o tres veces, pues el primer intento puede fallar con relativa facilidad. Mercurio entró en retrogradación el día 23 de agosto, y transitará de esa manera hasta el día 16 de septiembre. Viviremos alrededor de cuatro semanas, que pueden presentar complicaciones.
Venus entra en retrogradación cada dieciocho meses, durante este ciclo, las relaciones amorosas, de amistad y comerciales, atraviesan por un periodo de tensión, los negocios no presentan ganancias, el romance y la pasión de las parejas tiende a debilitarse, los matrimonios sufren altibajos, la gente se siente insegura en sus empleos, y suelen suceder muchos retrasos con el dinero. Durante el transcurso en el que Venus entra retrógrado, es el momento menos indicado, para realizarse cirugías estéticas, implantes dentales, y cualquier tipo de tratamientos de belleza extremos, ya que se corre el riesgo que el resultado no sea satisfactorio en absoluto. El planeta Venus permanecerá retrógrado, hasta el día 3 de septiembre, aún así los efectos negativos de este aspecto, se sentirán hasta el día 18 de septiembre.
