Reflections of parents of not-so-young-kids-anymore
After an absolutely horrendous week of smog, the sky started clearing up from yesterday afternoon. The air is still by no means in the healthy range, and the health agencies monitoring the haze have warned that the somewhat clear skies
The morning newspapers’ headlines screamed what many people already knew last night: that the current smog, exported from our good neighbors who’re clearing land through fire and carnage across the sea, has finally hit hazardous levels here. Granted, our island
