There’s no way to deny it anymore. It has been proven through a report from the UN (United Nations) that, yes, it was man who made the Earth sick. And even if now the world, diagnosed, decides to reduce the damage that our presence here causes (which is not very likely) and decides to promote an extreme change in the economical structures, the Earth, still at that, will have its fever raised in 1.1◦C this century. Is that bad? But it is still bearable. Now if nothing is done, the world must prepare for a new class of refugees: the climatic. A heating of up to 6◦C would be forecasted. To have an idea, the Earth was only 5◦C colder in the Ice Age, which put an end to the Dinosaur Age. If the “dinos” couldn’t handle the shock, who’d think the humans would. Humans?

It is most probable, according to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Changes, that the Earth will be warmed 3◦C, which will cause phenomena such as thawing, hurricanes, droughts and tempests. The sea level, according to the report, may rise between 18 and 59 centimeters, making cities below sea level disappear.
In Brazil, the greatest impact would be on the Northeast, which could become a semi-desert. The Amazon would suffer due to lack of rain, affecting the entire rainforest, losing biodiversity. On the other hand, the intensity of the rain would impact the South-east. To the UN, The world must do the impossible to stagnate the intensity of the fever, so that the temperature increase does not exceed 2◦C. The warning has been given.

Bilingual Education for the 21st Century
Bilingual education in the 21st century must face the complexity brought about by the freer movement of people,
services, and goods that characterizes our more globalized and technological world. In the second half of the 20th
century, bilingual education grew around the world as a way to educate children who didn't speak the state's
language or, in some cases, to recapture the heritage language of a group. This in itself was an innovation over the
use of bilingual education only to educate the children of the elite.
In the 21st century, however, the complex and dynamic links created by technology and globalized markets, coupled
with the importance of English and other “big” languages, challenge our old conceptions of bilingual education.
UNESCO in 1953 declared that it was axiomatic that the child's native language be used to teach children to read, but
basic literacy, even in one's own language, is insufficient to be a world citizen in the 21st century.
It has been predicted that by 2050, English will be accompanied by Chinese, Arabic, Spanish and Urdu, as the world's
big languages, ordered not only with English at the top as it has been up to now, but with an increasing role for the
other four “big” languages. Countries throughout the world are providing options to their children to be schooled in two
or more languages. The European Union, for example, has recently adopted a policy of “Mother Tongue + 2”
encouraging schools throughout the EU to develop children's trilingual proficiency. For those purposes, a model of
teaching is being promoted that encourages the use of the languages other than the child's mother tongue in subject
instruction. Ofelia Garcia is Professor of Bilingual Education at Teachers College, Columbia University.

Brazilian courts tussle over unproven cancer treatment
Patients demand access to compound despite lack of clinical testing. A court in the Brazilian state of São Paulo has
cut off distribution of a compound that is hailed by some as a miracle cancer cure — even though it has never been
formally tested in humans. On 11 November, to the relief of many cancer researchers, a state court overturned earlier
court orders that had obliged the nation’s largest university to provide the compound to hundreds of people with
terminal cancer.
The compound, phosphoethanolamine, has been shown to kill tumor cells only in lab dishes and in mice (A. K.
Ferreira et al. Anticancer Res. 32, 95–104; 2012). Drugs that seem promising in lab and animal studies have a
notoriously high failure rate in human trials. Despite this, some chemists at the University of São Paulo’s campus in
São Carlos have manufactured the compound for years and distributed it to people with cancer. A few of those
patients have claimed remarkable recoveries, perpetuating the compound’s reputation as a miracle cure.
The Brazilian constitution guarantees universal access to health care, and it is common in Brazil for patients to turn to
the courts to access drugs that the state healthcare system does not dispense because of their cost. But
phosphoethanolamine presents a different situation because it is not really a ‘drug’ at all. It is not approved by Brazil’s
National Health Surveillance Agency.
Those who argue that people who are terminally ill have a right to try experimental medicines saw a decision in favor
of a patient in October 2015 as a significant victory. But to the university administration, drug regulators and cancer
researchers, it showed blatant disregard for the basic scientific principle that a drug should be demonstrated to be
safe and effective before being given to patients outside of a clinical trial.

Why a global Language?
‘English is the global language.’ – A headline of this kind must have appeared in a thousand newspapers and
magazines in recent years. ‘English Rules’ is an actual example, presenting to the world an uncomplicated scenario
suggesting the universality of the language’s spread and the likelihood of its continuation. (…)
These are the kinds of statement which seem so obvious that most people would give them hardly a second
thought. Of course English is a global language, they would say. You hear it on television spoken by politicians from
all over the world. Wherever you travel, you see English signs and advertisements. Whenever you enter a hotel or
restaurant in a foreign city, they will understand English, and there will be an English menu. (…)
But English is news. The language continues to make news daily in many countries. And the headline isn’t
stating the obvious. For what does it mean, exactly? Is it saying that everyone in the world speaks English? This is
certainly not true, as we shall see. Is it saying, then, that every country in the world recognizes English as an offcial
language? This is not true either. So what does it mean to say that a language is a global language? Why is English
the language which is usually cited in this connection? How did the situation arise? And could it change? Or is it the
case that, once a language becomes a global language, it is there forever?
These are fascinating questions to explore, whether your frst language is English or not. If English is your
mother tongue, you may have mixed feelings about the way English is spreading around the world. You may feel
pride, that your language is the one which has been so successful; but your pride may be tinged with concern, when
you realize that people in other countries may not want to use the language in the same way that you do, and are
changing it to suit themselves. We are all sensitive to the way other people use (it is often said, abuse) ‘our’ language.
Deeply held feelings of ownership begin to be questioned. Indeed, if there is one predictable consequence of a
language becoming a global language, it is that nobody owns it any more. Or rather, everyone who has learned it now owns it – ‘has a share in it’ might be more accurate – and has the right to use it in the way they want. This fact alone
makes many people feel uncomfortable, even vaguely resentful. ‘Look what the Americans have done to English’ is a
not uncommon comment found in the letter-columns of the British press.
But similar comments can be heard in the USA when people encounter the sometimes striking variations in
English which are emerging all over the world. And if English is not your mother tongue, you may still have mixed
feelings about it. You may be strongly motivated to learn it, because you know it will put you in touch with more people
than any other language; but at the same time you know it will take a great deal of effort to master it, and you may
begrudge that effort. Having made progress, you will feel pride in your achievement, and savour the communicative
power you have at your disposal, but may none the less feel that mother-tongue speakers of English have an unfair
advantage over you. (…)
These feelings are natural, and would arise whichever language emerged as a global language. They are
feelings which give rise to fears, whether real or imaginary, and fears lead to conflict. Language is always in the news,
and the nearer a language moves to becoming a global language, the more newsworthy it is. So how does a
language come to achieve global status?
