A 27-year-old woman,Hannah Bacon will be spending most of the year walking more
than 2,000 miles in the name of climate change advocacy. She is making the long-distance
hike to raise awareness about climate change and support the Sunrise Movement.
On Nov. 1, Hannah Bacon started what she estimates will be a seven-month-long
journey from California to Virginia Beach. Along the way, she hopes to raise money for the
Sunrise Movement
，
an organization focused on mobilizing(
动员
)climate activists around the
country to create a sustainable future.
Bacon, who lost her job during the COVID-19, was inspired to set foot on the journey
after reading the book The Uninhabitable Earth by David Wallace-Wells. The book describes
the ways a warming planet is affecting the Earth more than what people may realize.
That’s
when Bacon thought about the ways she could help the planet.
Bacon graduated from the University of Connecticut in 2015 and has since served as an
ESL(English as a Second Language)instructor, a naturalist at an outdoor school, and sold
vegetables at farmer’s markets,according to her website on the project,which she’s named
Miles For Climate. She also helped adolescents in substance-abuse recovery, worked as an
EMT (Emergency Medical Technician),and helped a nonprofit promoting zero waste in New
York City.
Bacon is documenting her journey to Virginia Beach on her web page,Miles For Climate.
Her most recent update on Monday showed sle had already walked more than 650 miles in 46
days. As of now,Bacon is only about $8,500 short of her $20,000 fundraising goal for Sunrise
Movement.
“I hope people understand there is so much more we can be doing,and climate change is

You’ve probably heard the phrase, “Laughter is the best medicine.” Comedy on Referral
has taken that idea and run with it, using stand up comedy to help treat people struggling with
trauma (
创伤
) and anxiety in partnership with the National Health Service (NHS).
The idea came from comedian Angie Belcher’s experiences teaching comedy at Bristol
University. She found that students often told her how much stronger and more resilient (
有适
应力的
) they were thanks to stand up comedy.
Inspired, she teamed up with the NHS in Bristol to create a six-week comedy course for
patients struggling with trauma in January 2022. Following the success of this initial course,
Comedy on Referral won NHS funding to help men with trauma in London.
Talking to the Bristol Post, Belcher said, “Past traumas are perfect for comedy. Comedy
doesn’t come from the happy, perfect moments of your life, but from our everyday struggles
and major life events. People who’ve been through big life experiences such as losing a
loving one and ill health often can’t wait to tell me their story, mostly because there’s always
something especially funny about the situation.”
Research has shown that laughter has positive psychological effects, such as decreasing
levels of cortisol—the stress hormone—and increasing endorphins (
内啡肽
). It can even have
physiological benefits, although less research has been done in this area. Current research has

linked laughter and humour with increased levels of pain tolerance as well as short-term
cardiovascular benefits. More research is needed to prove these findings.
Nonetheless, the mental health benefits of regular laughter are widely accepted, and
using comedy to treat mental health struggles could be a real breakthrough in the treatment of
mental health.

Dogs are capable of understanding the emotions behind an expression on a human face.
The study is the latest to reveal just how connected dogs are with people. The research also
provides evidence that dogs use different parts of their brains to process human emotions. By
living in close contact with humans, dogs have developed specific skills that enable them to
interact and communicate efficiently with people. Recent studies have shown that the dogs’
brain can pick up on emotional clues contained in a person’s voice, body smell and
posture,and read their faces.
In this study,the authors watched what happened when they presented photographs of the
same two adults’ faces(a man and a woman) to 26 feeding dogs. The images were placed
strategically to the sides of the animals’ line of sight and the photos showed a human face
ex-pressing one of the six basic human emotions:
anger,fear,happiness,sadness,surprise,dis-gust or being neutral.
The dogs showed greater response and cardiac(
心脏的
)activity when shown
photo-graphs that expressed arousing emotional states such as anger, fear and happiness.

They also took longer to resume feeding after seeing these images. The dogs’ increased heart
rate indicated that in these cases they experienced higher levels of stress.
In addition,dogs tended to turn their heads to the left when they saw human faces
ex-pressing anger,fear or happiness. The reverse happened when the faces looked surprised,
possibly because dogs view it as a non-threatening, relaxed expression.“Clearly arousing,
negative emotions seem to be processed by the right side of a dog’s brain,and more positive
emotions by the left side,”says Siniscalchi.
The results support that of other studies done on dogs and other mammals. These show
that the right side of the brain plays a more important part in regulating the sympathetic
out-flow to the heart. This is a fundamental organ for the control of the “fight or
flight”Behavioral response necessary for survival.
