☆ Opinion | Gabriel García Márquez Did Not Want His Final Book Published. But Should That Really Be the End of the Story?
  + stars: | 2024-03-13 | by ( Álvaro Santana-Acuña | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
Before his death, García Márquez asked his sons, Rodrigo García and Gonzalo García Barcha, to destroy the novel. The life of a work of art does not end when its creator dies. Artists too rarely leave clear instructions on what to do with their works, especially unfinished ones, which can lead to messy legal battles. The heirs inherit the responsibility to preserve and promote the artist’s legacy so that it can be appreciated for generations to come. The truth is that if García Márquez’s sons had done as their father asked, they would most likely have been met with criticism, too.

CNN —It’s all systems go for Prince William’s Earthshot Prize lately. Now we’re hearing about a new partnership between the Prince of Wales’ initiative and online video platform YouTube. But away from the glitzy awards ceremony, some have wondered about the real-world impact of innovation prizes like Prince William’s. “Not only because of Prince William but the full Earthshot team that is there in order to support all the finalists. And I think it’s incredibly helpful to share some of the challenges that we have found along the way.”In recent weeks, Prince William even dropped by Notpla’s headquarters in northeast London.

☆ The Next Frontier in Farming? The Ocean.

For centuries, it’s been treasured in kitchens in Asia and neglected almost everywhere else: Those glistening ribbons of seaweed that bend and bloom in cold ocean waves. Far beyond South Korea, new farms have cropped up in Maine, the Faroe Islands, Australia, even the North Sea. But even as its champions see it as a miracle crop for a hotter planet, others worry that the zeal to farm the ocean could replicate some of the same damages of farming on land. “Seaweed is not going to replace all plastic, but seaweed combined with other things can tackle single use plastic,” he said. Seaweed farms are a far cry from the rows of corn and wheat that make up monoculture farming on land.

REUTERS/Gabriel StargardterCATANDUVA, Brazil, Oct 28 (Reuters) - The small city of Catanduva in the rural farm belt of Sao Paulo state has been ahead of the political curve in Brazil. The residents of Catanduva, who have benefited from robust Chinese demand for Brazilian commodities, are now fully behind Bolsonaro. Since Sahao stepped down in 2005, the PT has spent nearly two decades locked out of power at Catanduva's city hall. Across Sao Paulo, countless PSDB mayors and state lawmakers have, like Father Oliveira of Catanduva, thrown in their lot with Bolsonaro. Bassitt, the farmer, said the conservative values of rural, small-town Brazil were now the driving force in national politics.
