The Ides of March, March 15, was in Roman times the day to settle debts, and according to Shakespeare, a day to beware of. The Ides of March, last Friday, was chosen for the big international strike by school children for action on climate change. The kids showed in force but were overshadowed by two other tragedies that day, Cyclone Idai and the New Zealand shooting. We also became aware of dangers we previously missed, a deadly design flaw in the Boeing 737 Max and an unnoticed large meteor strike over the Bering Sea. Beware of the Ides of March indeed.
Here are the videos for the meeting:
- Students Across the Globe Go on Strike for Climate Change
- Thousands feared dead after Cyclone Idai rips through southern Africa
- New Zealand mosque suspect embraced white supremacy
- Investigators find similarities between Ethiopian Airlines and Lion Air crashes
- Earth hit by meteor 10 times more powerful than nuclear bomb, but no one noticed
