Welcome to Wednesday, July 20th, rivers and roads...
Europe is experiencing a record-breaking heatwave this week as multiple nations face dangerously high temperatures.

The European heat wave has already contributed to more than 1,100 deaths in Portugal and Spain, and the death toll is expected to rise as the record-breaking heat persists. Heat waves can be especially life-threatening in Europe because air conditioning is less ubiquitous than it is in the U.S. and many homes aren’t designed to handle the heat.
Record-breaking temperatures are being felt worldwide.

** A Floating Health Clinic & Other Proposed Workarounds to State Abortion Bans
------------------------------------------------------------

Now that the Supreme Court has overturned Roe v. Wade, states will decide if, when, where, and under what circumstances women can access abortions. Reproductive health clinics in states with abortion bans have been forced to closed or reduce their services. In response, healthcare practitioners and reproductive rights advocates are exploring ways to circumvent these bans and provide services.
A California doctor has proposed building a floating abortion clinic on a ship in federal waters in the Gulf of Mexico, to allow women in Southern states to access first-trimester surgical abortions, contraception, STI testing, and other care.
