COP26 氣候峰會持續召開中，當上百架私人飛機載著各國政要往返蘇格蘭會場，太平洋島國吐瓦魯的外交部長 Simon Kofe 選擇捲起褲管，泡在海水中錄製演說，要讓世人正視氣候變遷、海平面上升使吐瓦魯人民面臨「國家消失」的存亡威脅🇹🇻

To make an impactful statement about the threat of climate change, Tuvalu's Minister of Justice, Communication and Foreign Affairs, Simon Kofe did it like no other - by speaking behind a podium in knee-deep water out at sea | Read more: bit.ly/31voHh8

全球熱點

地球上最危險的地方🇦🇫

聯合國世界糧食計劃署（WFP）署長畢斯利（David Beasley）警告，阿富汗 2200 萬人民面臨「當前地球上最嚴峻的人道危機」，95%人民沒有足夠食物可吃。

儘管 WFP 已緊急增加援助，但畢斯利表示隨著嚴冬逼近，若氣候如預期般惡劣，阿富汗將陷入大規模饑荒威脅，災難情景將宛如「人間煉獄」，呼籲超級富豪與（為抵制塔利班政權）切斷援助的西方國家付諸行動。

以 Harvey Milk 命名的軍艦🚢

大家有看過電影《自由大道》（Milk，中國譯《米爾克》，香港譯《夏菲米克的時代》）嗎？電影主人公 Harvey Milk 是全美第一位公開出櫃的民選官員，雖然他在當選一年後遇刺身亡，對 LGBT 社群的影響依然深遠。

如今，美國海軍以民權運動領袖命名的六艘新艦，其中一艘油料補給艦就叫做米爾克號（USNS Harvey Milk），向當年因性向被迫退伍的米爾克致敬，海軍部長戴托羅（Carlos Del Toro）在下水典禮的致詞也坦言錯誤，「這樣的不公是海軍歷史的一部分。」

不能只有我看到

少女被綁架靠「540」手勢獲救🇺🇸

美國一名駕駛在州際公路上注意到鄰車的年輕女孩不斷向車窗外比出「5-4-0」手勢—這個手勢由加拿大婦女基金會（Canadian Women's Foundation）發明，原意是讓在疫情封鎖期間遭受家暴的被害者，能悄悄對窗外比出手勢求助，不會輕易引起施暴者注意。因社交媒體 TikTok 的傳播而廣為人知。

這名駕駛正好知道「5-4-0」手勢代表著「我需要幫助」的含意，於是撥打911並追蹤車輛位置，協助警方定位並攔車盤查，從車上救出一名被父母通報失蹤的16歲少女。
