Karina Michelin stated that on Sunday, October 11, the Amazon was still burning and that the smoke in Manaus was affecting residents, while classes were suspended and firefighters were working at their limit. She also reported that a firefighter became ill during the firefighting efforts and had to be carried by colleagues. Michelin said that the Amazon Fire Department requested reinforcements from the federal government on September 18, including four aircraft, transportation, and vehicles. According to her, on October 1, the National Public Security Secretariat, linked to the Lula government, responded that the request could not be met at that moment. The author stated that the federal government claimed the state had waived support and cited 229 extinguished fires and another 20 still being fought. She said the aircraft began to arrive on October 10, following a wave of complaints on social media. The author compared the current mobilization with that of 2021, during the Bolsonaro government, when Caetano Veloso, Gilberto Gil, Maria Bethânia, and Chico César participated in the song "Canção pra Amazônia," by Greenpeace. She questioned the absence of a similar mobilization in light of the situation of residents and firefighters. Michelin called Lula and the Amazonas government hypocrites and demanded explanations about who had denied or waived help and when reinforcements arrived at the fire line. She also stated that human and animal lives threatened by smoke should take precedence over political disputes. #Amazônia #Incêndios #MeioAmbiente (translated)

This was stated by the founder of Amazon and the space company Blue Origin, Jeff Bezos. "This time we are going to the Moon to stay, and we will do it at lower costs," Bezos said yesterday to Fox News. It will not just be another mission after which we return home. It will be a real, sustainable lunar base from which we can explore the Moon and discover interesting things. Bezos compared today's commercial space flights to the lunar program of 1969 and reminded that nearly three percent of the then American GDP was needed for that first endeavor. He emphasized that establishing a system for regular cargo delivery remains a key prerequisite for landing astronauts. There are every reason to believe that we will be able to send people to the Moon by 2028. Bezos specifically highlighted the strategic competition with China and stated that Washington must be faster than Beijing. We must beat China in the return to the Moon. I believe we will succeed in that. Working on the Moon's surface requires 28 times less energy to lift cargo due to lower gravity, and the Moon also offers an abundance of local resources. Bezos briefly reflected on artificial intelligence and advocated for targeted limitations instead of strict regulation of fundamental models. #Mjesec #NASA #JeffBezos (translated)
