The US government’s deference to agriculture industry interests has put the country at risk of a public health crisis.
The failures in California, where Los Angeles has had no significant rainfall in eight months, are not only failures of preparedness but a failure globally to halt the extraction of fossil fuel. Welcome to the age of the “Pyrocene” where cities burn and water does not come out of the hydrants.

Janata Weekly is India’s oldest independent socialist weekly.
Ever since its founding in 1946, Janata has voiced its principled dissent against all conduct and practice that is detrimental to the cherished values of nationalism, democracy, secularism and socialism, while upholding the integrity and the ethical norms of healthy journalism. For more than seventy years now, week after week, it has continued to analyse the changes taking place in the country and the world from a socialist standpoint, and thus promote the spread of socialist ideology in the country.
