☆パルモア学院

神戸で創立134年の歴史を持つパルモア学院が、今年度末に休校することになりました。
良心的で、良質な老舗英語学校が消えていくのは, 本当に残念です… いつも、いわゆる大手英会話スクールにはない、時代に流されないあたたかいものを感じていました。救済方法は、ないものか… 何とか残ってほしいです。

Scientists Discover The Cleanest Air On Earth-(Courtesy of Breaking News English)

Scientists have discovered what they believe to be the cleanest air on Earth. Researchers from Colorado State University and the Australian Bureau of Meteorology conducted research on the purity of the air above Antarctica. They found a region over the Southern Ocean, between the south of Australia and Antarctica, that was “unaffected” by human activity. The scientists said the area they researched formed the atmosphere in the lower clouds. The analysis of the air showed that it was totally free from “anthropogenic aerosols”. These are pollutants or particles derived from human activity, or dust from other continents. The scientists called this pollution-free area, “truly pristine”.

The scientists analysed the structure of airborne microbes in the lower clouds over the Southern Ocean. They looked at the DNA of the microbes and tracked where they came from. Their analysis included monitoring wind trajectories to detect how far the microbes may have travelled. They found that the atmospheric eco-system was very much “isolated,” self-contained, and free from contaminants from elsewhere in the world. The source of the microbes was the Southern Ocean, rather than airborne pollutants from other continents. The researchers concluded that the Southern Ocean is one of very few places on Earth that has been “minimally affected by anthropogenic activities”.

Sam’s message:
Attached are this week’s articles.

On Wednesday, the A class will also be doing 1100 Words You Should Know week 5 day 3.

On Friday, the A class article has two versions: one including a picture, and the other with the picture removed. It reduces the size of the printout to 3 pages from 4, so I thought I would include both versions and students can view the picture on a PC / smartphone but save paper when printing the article out.

☆Keynesianism(ケインズ主義)

政府による給付金は短期的に効果があるかもしれませんが、コロナ危機のような不況時は、1) ベーシックインカム制度 2)政府による公共事業を増やして雇用を促進するケインズ主義のような政策なども駆使して、長期的な視野で有効な対策を迅速に講じてほしいと思います。

In response to the economic fallout from the covid-19 pandemic, the Japanese government decided to hand out ¥100,000 relief funds to everyone residing in Japan. From the short-term perspective, this might alleviate the economic crisis to some extent as a tentative measure, but from the long-term perspective, the government needs to make further commitments to turning the economy around by introducing some drastic measures as: 1) Basic Income System 2) More public projects (something like Keynesianism) to create employment. The strength of the government is tested particularly at the time of crisis.
