Wepa Boricuas and all,
We hope you are well and able to find time and space to process the events unfolding in Puerto Rico in the aftermath of hurricane Fiona. We also sincerely hope your families on the island are safe and at the very least have access to basic resources.

Lots of talk about rebuilding houses, bridges, etc. more resiliently in #PuertoRico following #Fiona. When are we going to talk about the need to restore ecosystems so that #PuertoRico can withstand the onslaught of climate change? periodismoinvestigativo.com/…

Many have asked, how can I support #PuertoRico after #Fiona?
@CienciaPR has put together a list of vetted nonprofits as well as a list of free mental health & public health resources.

El Bosque Solar sigue de pie y puedes durante el día ir a recargar tus equipos. Descubre 12 outlets en laterales de los bancos de madera. La vecina ha mantenido tranquilidad porque no se ha interrumpido el uso requerido de su máquina de apnea de sueño. #oasis #solar #Adjuntas

Hurricane Fiona, like Hurricane Maria, is forcing Puerto Ricans once again to collect water from a tiny stream near a highway: apnews.com/article/e40665895…
Boricuas yesterday had a memorial at Sather Gate reflecting on 5 years after Hurricane Maria, which brought catastrophic winds to the island and caused major damage.
Today, we stand solemnly as we see once again our island brought to destruction by another hurricane.
