Add lithium to water reduces suicide

It may seem science fiction, it is proposed medical consultant psychiatrist in Ireland last week, including a drug can be used to make people happier.
Dr Mussagy Bhamjee should be for his government to add lithium to the water sources.
But lithium does not have a romantic attraction for recreational drugs that people eat in the hope that they are happier. Dr. Bhamjee do not actually give us a mind-altering experiences.But it is a viable option is suitable for our economic condition is frustrating. He says that the lithium in the taps can reduce the suicide rate.
This article is used in psychiatry to treat episodes of mania in people with what is known Ptekr mood bipolar or bipolar disorder (which is a mental illness characterized by the rotation periods of depression with periods of euphoria is natural that different from the feeling of elation natural as it leads the person to carry out reckless and irresponsible and dangerous in some cases).
In his crude lithium is an alkali metal light and color is silvery white in some foods and in drinking water in some places. Studies indicate that in the places where some people get on small quantities of lithium from the taps have to have a suicide rate lower than any other place.
It is noteworthy that in 1990, a study found in the state of Texas on the 27-nation rates are lower not only in suicide but also in the murder and rape among those who drank the water that it contains lithium. In 2009 a Japanese research found lower suicide rates in areas with lithium in its water.
He called Mr. Alan Young of Imperial College, British Journal of Psychiatry for further investigation, saying that the subsequent benefits to the community mental health may be worth considering.

Akin to the discovery of the planet Earth

New planet almost twice the size of the land and the many similarities (French)

Announced the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) discovered a new planet, is the most Earth-like planets, orbiting a star lies 600 light-years, a finding that an important part of ongoing efforts to determine whether there is life beyond the solar system?
He joins the planet, called "Kepler 22 B" to the list of discoveries includes more than 500 planet, orbiting stars beyond the solar system, but the new planet is the smallest with a radius of about 2.4 times the half diameter of the Earth, as he is the best location, the presence of water liquid on the surface, one of the elements necessary for life on Earth.
Said Natalie Batallha - Deputy Commander of the scientific team of the Kepler space telescope of the Department of Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), who discovered the star - "We are focused on monitoring the planets in the size of the Earth, which can be found by life."
She said in a news conference at the Center for Research, "Ames," NASA, Calif. "I do not know anything about the planets that range in size between the Earth and Neptune, because our solar system does not include models of such planets, and we do not know which part will be rocky and any part contains a reservoir of water Any part contains a reservoir of ice? do not have any idea until we measure one of them and see what they do. "
Scientists said the findings - to be published in the Astrophysical Journal - This is the first discovery of a planet with potential for life orbiting a star like the sun.
The research indicated earlier to the existence of planets about the same size as the earth in areas of viable, but the efforts of scientists demonstrated that it is impossible to live it.

He described Douglas Hadeguens - aparticipant in the world of the Kepler mission at NASA headquarters in Washington - the discovery of new planet as "a landmark eventon the road to reach the Earth's twin."

He added that the findings of the KeplerMission "continues to demonstrate the importance of scientific missions for NASA, which aims to answer some importantquestions about our place in the universe."

NASA said that the mission also observedmore than a thousand horizon can be transformed into planets, although it needs more scientific research, said that this numberrepresents about double the numberannounced by the.

Among the two thousand and 326 planetcandidates Kepler found a team, there are tenin the size of the ground almost, and there aresites make it suitable for life as they spinaround their stars.

If the "Kepler my 22" surface and atmosphereare similar to the land of the temperature it will be 22 degrees Celsius, about the sametemperature in the spring day on the ground.

Decline in Amazon deforestation

The Brazilian government announced a decline in deforestation in the Amazon region to the lowest level in 23 years, and justified this retreat to tighten its stance on illegal logging of trees.

The data showed issued by the National Institute for Space Research of the destruction of Brazil's share of the largest rainforest in the world fell by 11% to 6238 square kilometers in 12 months.

The figure was down a quarter of the forest area destroyed in 2004, when it reachedremovals of trees by farmers to expand their operations to raise cattle and grow soybeans to the peak.

Brazil has stepped up monitoring and implementation of conservation policies on theAmazon in recent years, but the improvementis partly due to the global economic slowdownhas reduced demand and prices for agricultural products of the country.

Concealed and the general improvement in the2010/2011 increases of concern in some states of Amazonas, Rondônia, which doubledas the removal of forests from the previous year, as the percentage of deforestation in the state of Mato Grosso agriculture by 20%.

Said Environment Minister Isabel Teixeira told reporters: "Some states are still very sensitive.We need to clarify the situation in theRondonia. We need to understand why changeits image."

Law of the land
The decline coincides with deforestation in the Brazilian Congress to discuss reforms to the law of the land environment, scientists say itwill lead to a severe setback to efforts to preserve forests.

It is expected that the Senate approve the new law of forests in the coming days.

Currently being built two giant dams to generate electricity from waterfalls in Rondonia;to strengthen the local economy and attractmigrant workers.

The area of ​​the Amazon 4.1 million square kilometers, covering about 60% of Brazilian territory, and contains five water wealth of the world, and about a third of the global inventoryof animal species.

And record the destruction of the Amazonforests peaked in the period between 2003 and 2004 when 27,329 square kilometers.

Brazil is under pressure to slow theencroachment by loggers and cattle ownersaccused of involvement in the destruction ofthe largest rainforest in the world.
