Human disturbances are making the Amazon rainforest more flammable, according to researchers.
This is one of the conclusions of a two-year study of the Brazilian Amazon, which has revealed that even areas of protected forests are degraded by human activity, including logging and fragmentation – increasing the likelihood of wildfires.
While the Brazilian Amazon is protected from large-scale deforestation, this new study – published in the journal Nature – suggests that more effort is needed to “safeguard the hyper-diversity of tropical forest ecosystems”.

This is one of the conclusions of a two-year study of the Brazilian Amazon, which has revealed that even areas of protected forests are degraded by human activity, including logging and fragmentation – increasing the likelihood of wildfires.
While the Brazilian Amazon is protected from large-scale deforestation, this new study – published in the journal Nature – suggests that more effort is needed to “safeguard the hyper-diversity of tropical forest ecosystems”.

“Este lugar tiene muchas dimensiones”, dice Gianmarco Piacenti de la Iglesia de la Natividad de Belén, Cisjordania.
“Y desde el punto de vista histórico es fantástico, y también desde el religioso”, explica a la BBC.
Su firma, Restauraciones Piacenti, se está encargando de la renovación del templo, erigido justo sobre la cueva en la que los cristianos consideran que nació Jesús.
La iglesia llevaba décadas deteriorándose, en parte debido a que los distintos grupos cristianos no se ponían de acuerdo para empezar a repararla.
El humo de las velas y el polvo habían oscurecido los mosaicos y las goteras los habían dañado.
“Son los mejores mosaicos del mundo, pero no se habían restaurado en 900 años”, dice.
Así que en 2013 empezó la restauración del sitio con carácter de urgencia.
Y los restauradores pronto se encontrarían con una sorpresa: el mosaico de un ángel que llevaba siglos oculto bajo la capa de yeso de la pared.

Cámaras del circuito cerrado de televisión del aeropuerto de Atartuk de Estambul, la ciudad más grande de Turquía, captaron el momento exacto en que ocurre la explosión que hizo parte del ataque que dejó este martes al menos 41 personas muertas y 230 heridos.
La explosión fue causada por uno de los atacantes que ingresaron en la noche de este miércoles al terminal aéreo y comenzaron a disparar contras las personas que se encontraban en el salón principal.
Cuando uno de ellos fue abatido por la policía activó los explosivos que llevaba cargados sobre su cuerpo.
El “ponchado” como se le conoce en Colombia ha evolucionado hasta convertirse en un deporte con su propio campeonato mundial.
El “quemado”, “ponchado”, “balón escondido”, “macho parado” o “cementerio”, como se lo conoce en distintas partes de América Latina, es tal vez uno de los juegos más populares en el mundo.
Muchos lo pueden asociar a la comedia de Holywood de 2004 protagonizada por Ben Stiller y Vicent Vaughn “Dodgeball” (“Pelotas en juego“), en la que satirizaban la competencia deportiva con este juego callejero en que se trata de pegarle con una pelota a los miembros del equipo rival.
Pero en realidad, jugar al “quemado” o “dodgeball” hoy, está lejos de ser un chiste de película.
En los últimos años ha pasado de ser una diversión callejera a un deporte que, precisamente debido a su rápido crecimiento, acaba de tener su primer campeonato mundial en Manchester, Reino Unido, con la presencia de selecciones de ambos sexos con representantes de 10 países.
“Es un deporte rápido, ágil, pero que cualquier persona que pueda correr, lanzar y agarrar una pelota puede practicar. Por eso tal vez haya crecido tanto en popularidad”, le dijo a la BBC el presidente de la Asociación Mundial de Dodgeball, Tim Hickson.
Actualmente en Reino Unido unas 750.000 personas practican el deporte, mientras que en Estados Unidos están inscritos 9,7 millones de jugadores de ambos sexos y de diferentes edades.

La idea del juego es tratar de golpear con las pelotas a los jugadores contrarios. En la imagen la selección mixta de Gales.
“Yo creo que parte de nuestro éxito radica en que hemos creado escuelas alrededor del mundo en lugares que no están diseñados para prácticas deportivas, pero donde sí se puede jugar Dodgeball. Eso ha hecho que mucha gente se conecte con el juego”, agregó Hock.
Pero, ¿cómo se juega?
Aunque el filme de Ben Stiller en 2004 ayudó a la popularización del deporte como tal, el juego de las quemadas tuvo su origen en las escuelas de Japón hace 60 años.
Sus reglas básicas fueron escritas en la calle: hay dos equipos de seis personas cada uno, que se enfrentan en una cancha con una división intermedia.
La premisa del “quemado” es tratar de golpear con seis pelotas dispuestas para el juego a los rivales del equipo contrario para así eliminarlos de la cancha. El juego lo gana el equipo que logre sacar a todos los contrarios.
Pero también es ganador el equipo que, al terminarse el tiempo reglamentario de tres minutos, tiene más jugadores dentro de la cancha.

Actualmente unas 10 millones de personas practican el deporte del dodgeball, que es conocido en América Latina como “quedao” o “ponchado”.
“Hay que tener en cuenta que hay que moverse mucho para evitar ser golpeado, pero a la vez tienes que desarrollar la habilidad de agarrar las pelotas”, le dijo a la BBC Ryan Hollinger, una de las estrellas de la selección de Irlanda de Norte.
Sin embargo, dentro de las reglas se considera que cuando un jugador coge una de las pelotas que le lanzan puede habilitarle la entrada a uno de sus compañeros que hubiera sido eliminado.
La galesa Amie Jones es considerada la lanzadora más veloz del circuito europeo.

Se espera realizar el segundo campeonato mundial de dodgeball en Nueva York, Estados Unidos, en 2018.
“Es cierto que comenzó como un juego de la calle, pero cada vez se hace más exigente y competitivo”, señaló Jones.
Aspiraciones olímpicas
El Mundial dejó como campeones a las selecciones de Inglaterra, en hombres, y Australia en mujeres.
Pero el objetivo de la Asociación Mundial de Dodgeball es el de convertir al deporte en disciplina olímpica.
Por esa razón están trabajando con escuelas en 57 países, no solo para la promoción del juego sino para desarrollar programas de alta competencia.
“Que hayamos logrado organizar la primera Copa del Mundo es algo impresionante, histórico”, señaló Hickson.

Para el jugador de Irlanda del Norte, Ryan Hollinger, el dodgeball es un deporte donde hay que aprender a correr, esquivar y agarrar pelotas a la vez.
Y cree que en 15 años, el dodgeball podrá estar sobre la mesa del Comité Olímpico Internacional.
“Queremos incrementar la participación del dodgeball en el mundo con esas personas que asistieron como público a los partidos del Mundial o vio algún encuentro en nuestro canal de YouTube”, concluyó.
Se espera que en 2018 se realice en Nueva York el segundo campeonato Mundial.
