Evacuations: The Kremlin has offered to evacuate Ukrainian civilians to Russia — that is, to the invader — or to its ally Belarus.

Sanctions: American lawmakers advanced a bipartisan measure yesterday to suspend normal trade relations with Moscow and ban U.S. purchases of Russian oil.

Climate change, together with widespread deforestation and burning for agriculture and ranching, has taken a toll on the Amazon, making it warmer and drier. More than three-quarters of the untouched rainforest lost resiliency since 2000, the study found, and the loss was greatest in areas that were [drier or closer to human activities like logging](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRkCXYRP4QAAWh0dHBzOi8vd3d3Lm55dGltZXMuY29tLzIwMjIvMDMvMDcvY2xpbWF0ZS9hbWF6b24tY2xpbWF0ZS1jaGFuZ2UtZGVmb3Jlc3RhdGlvbi5odG1sP2NhbXBhaWduX2lkPTUxJmVtYz1lZGl0X21iZV8yMDIyMDMwOCZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD01NTEzMSZubD1tb3JuaW5nLWJyaWVmaW5nJTNBLWV1cm9wZS1lZGl0aW9uJnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD04NDkwNyZ0ZT0xJnVzZXJfaWQ9YWE0OTFlZjdmMWQ5NjRlNDk3OWZiNzg0ZTc0ZTAxZDdXA255dEIKYiQR8SZiMsh0u1IbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAA). About 17 percent of the Amazon has been deforested over the past half-century. Losing the rainforest could add up to 90 billion tons of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere, the equivalent of several years’ worth of global emissions. Quotable: “We have to get to zero deforestation, zero forest degradation,” Carlos Nobre, a senior scientist at the National Institute of Amazonian Research, said. “We still have a chance to save the forest.” In other climate news: The Biden administration proposed strict limits on emissions from buses, delivery vans and heavy trucks, [the first time in 21 years that standards have been tightened](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRkCXYRP0T3aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMi8wMy8wNy9jbGltYXRlL3RydWNrcy1wb2xsdXRpb24tcnVsZXMtZXBhLmh0bWw_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9NTEmZW1jPWVkaXRfbWJlXzIwMjIwMzA4Jmluc3RhbmNlX2lkPTU1MTMxJm5sPW1vcm5pbmctYnJpZWZpbmclM0EtZXVyb3BlLWVkaXRpb24mcmVnaV9pZD03NzY3NDk1MiZzZWdtZW50X2lkPTg0OTA3JnRlPTEmdXNlcl9pZD1hYTQ5MWVmN2YxZDk2NGU0OTc5ZmI3ODRlNzRlMDFkN1cDbnl0QgpiJBHxJmIyyHS7Uht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAAA~) for the biggest polluters on the road.

Flesch reading score measures how complex a text is. The lower the score, the more difficult the text is to read. The Flesch readability score uses the average length of your sentences (measured by the number of words) and the average number of syllables per word in an equation to calculate the reading ease. Text with a very high Flesch reading ease score (about 100) is straightforward and easy to read, with short sentences and no words of more than two syllables. Usually, a reading ease score of 60-70 is considered acceptable/normal for web copy.
