WORLD: Beijing smog is driving many into depression

Beijing is undergoing a dense smog that is said to making people deeply depressed. The video shows a time lapse of the creation of the smog. It looks a bit like a combination of the City’s terrible air plus a wave of sand from the Gobi Desert. Next, the heart-wrenching tragedy of people in lawless North Africa is seen in the attempt to smuggle a man in a suitcase into Spain’s African enclave and thence onto Europe. He suffered lack of oxygen and who knows what other deprivation. Millions are trying to flee Africa where Libya has been left in chaos by the Arab Spring debacle.


And in Mexico, there is growing apprehension that the Trump administration will stop or slow the billions in U.S. dollars sent back home by undocumented workers to their relatives.
