Today in Labor History February 20, 1931: An anarchist uprising in Encarnación, Paraguay briefly transformed the city into the revolutionary Encarnación Commune. Students and workers created popular assemblies to run the city. They tried to create communes in other towns, too, but the authorities thwarted their attempts. When the authorities began to retake Encarnacion, many of the insurrectionists stole steamboats and fled to Brazil. Along the way, they attacked yerba mate companies and burned records related to indentured servants. Gabriel Casaccia alluded to the uprising in his novel “Los Herederos.”
This is the kind of heat that exceeds the ability of some of the trees that live in the region to survive. I’m worried about these repeated heat waves as a tipping point into a much less productive arid grassland that no longer sustains the people who live there.
"The fires have ravaged thousands of hectares of forest since Friday, cloaking coastal cities in a dense fog of grey smoke and forcing people to flee their homes in the central regions of Vina del Mar and Valparaiso.
As Chile and Colombia battle rising temperatures, the heatwave is also threatening to sweep over Argentina, Paraguay and Brazil in the coming days."
"A #heatwave is affecting #Argentina, #Brazil, #Chile, #Uruguay, and #Paraguay with temperatures reaching 48 degrees Celsius [120F] and forecast to remain around or above 40 degrees [104F] for several days."
