MSU has a satellite uplink/LTN TV studio and Comrex line for radio interviews upon request. Highlights: New Michigan State University research published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences shows that plants such as oak and poplar trees will emit more of a compound called isoprene as global temperatures climb. Isoprene from plants represents the highest flux of hydrocarbons to the atmosphere behind methane. Although isoprene isn't inherently bad — it actually helps plants better tolerate insect pests and high temperatures — it can worsen air pollution by reacting with nitrogen oxides from automobiles and coal-fired power plants.

I am a subscriber of the Inquirer and never miss reading the Opinion section. The editorial 'Good news, bad news on cancer' (3/18/23) caught my eye since two of my family members were just recently diagnosed with cancer. One with cancer of the rectum and the other with cancer of the thyroid glands. Your information regarding the shortage of oncologists, and lack of trained pathologists, technologists, and surgeons are certainly facts. Indeed, what is the use of state-of-the-art facilities without the experts and knowledgeable medical personnel to make use of it? I am just a lowly citizen who has been observing perhaps what in our society has been causing these diseases.
