Noticed something a little funky in the world around you and want to figure out what's up? Especially if there might be something you ought to be doing about it? Not sure what information sources to trust these days? If you're in the US, federal agencies like NOAA, USGS, EPA and more collect massive amounts of scientific data every day, much of which is publicly available online - if you know where to look.
A PDF version with clickable links is available for free on my itchio page (quakeandquiver); I'll add a direct link in a reblog.
The Death Toll of the Earthquake that hit Turkey and Syria may have reached 20,000 people, and that’s outside of all those who are injured and lost.
If you could donate PLEASE do!!!
Here’s a post full of charities you could donate to, but I’ll add my own trustworthy ones here:
Islamic Relief: teams are on the ground right now providing emergency food assistance, shelter, medical supplies to hospitals and clinics, as well as blankets and tents for those made homeless by the quake in Turkey and Syria
Molham: The team at Molham are currently on the ground helping displaced families in Turkey and Syria who have been affected by the earthquake
The White Helmets: The team are on the ground in Northwest Syria searching for survivors and removing the dead from the rubble.
MSF: remaining in close contact with the local authorities in northwestern Syria and with the authorities in Turkey to extend their support where it’s needed. They’re providing essential life kits to displaced people in the region
please PLEASE reblog. Syria and Turkiye need our help!!!
Apricot landed rather close to the camp she saw, sighing to itself before approaching.
Myron wasn't stirring at all yet, which was mildly worrying her, it wanted the extra help and hands from Violet's partner Avocado... hopefully neither of them where mad at the yelling she did.
PLEASE do not donate to kızılay.org because they are literally frauds and they don't use the donations for victims and they pocket the money! instead donate to https://ahbap.org/bagisci-ol
their swift code for payment from abroad: “ISBKTRIS”
p.s. i know kızılay is a government agency but our government officials are frauds and ahbap.org is a charity of haluk levent, a turkish singer and philanthropist and every turkish people knows that he's a good person.
