In 1997, Princess Diana lost her life in a vehicle accident in Paris. According to former staff members, Princess Diana never observed her birthday while she was alive. Paul Burrell claims that the late Princess of Wales "hated" her birthday. She spent the latter years of her life living alone in Kensington Palace. She detested her birthday, he says Closer Magazine. Whenever it was her birthday, she would declare, "I'm staying in, I'm not going out". Writing thank-you notes for all the gifts that kept coming in the door, she would sit at her desk. On the other hand, the Princess was proud to mark the special days of her two kids and made sure they had an amazing time. But those boys were spoiled rotten on William and Harry's birthdays, Burrell continues. They had all they could have wished. Diana would have been thrilled to celebrate Harry's 40th birthday and would have wished for the lads to atone for their transgressions. It would grieve the late...

Key predators are being forced from their homes by the climate catastrophe, endangering an ecosystem that is already struggling.  "Sharks play such an important role in keeping the reef system in balance; by eating both herbivorous and smaller predatory fish, they help to keep coral from being overgrazed or overgrown by algae," stated Dr. Anna Sturrock, a senior lecturer at the University of Essex who was not involved in the study team. Therefore, it is extremely concerning that sharks were leaving the reefs at the most vulnerable times. The good news is that not every shark acted in the same way. Scientists have found that as the oceans continue to warm due to the climate catastrophe, sharks are leaving their habitats on coral reefs. Sharks are already critically endangered, so this is likely to hurt them, and their disappearance could have detrimental effects on the already fragile reefs. The delicate and very diverse ecosystem that the reef sharks are a vital compone...
