In France, there has long been a heated debate over gender-inclusive language, with critics warning that it makes texts difficult to read. However, a new thesis shows that the forms work as intended. They make women more visible in the reader’s mind, without significantly compromising readability. In French, all nouns have a grammatical gender and are either masculine or feminine. On top of that,

Just as climate change threatens homes, food and livelihoods, so does it threaten the world's supply of wine. If temperatures rise by 2 degrees Celsius, the regions of the world that are suitable for growing wine grapes could shrink by as much as 56 percent, according to a new study. And with 4 degrees of warming, 85 percent of those lands would no longer be able to produce good wines. Fortunately
