A Ban on Soy Sauce Fish? It's Not Such a Bad Idea
In Geneva, attempts to hammer out a United Nations deal to end plastic pollution fell apart for the second time in nine months, after the US joined a bloc dominated by oil exporters in refusing to countenance a cap on production or regulation of potentially toxic additives. That's a sign of how global environmental negotiations are increasingly getting bogged down in a procedural morass.

Friends of the Everglades, Miccosukee tribe challenge "Alligator Alcatraz" expansion in court
Friends of the Everglades and the Miccosukee tribe filed suit June 27, citing concerns about the environmental impact of the detention facility known as "Alligator Alcatraz" on the Everglades. "Tomorrow marks the end of a temporary restraining order that the judge issued almost 14 days ago to halt new construction at the site. Now, we wait on action on this preliminary injunction that could go even further and wind down activity at the site potentially," said Eve Samples, executive director of Friends of the Everglades. Samples said she hopes the judge rules to temporarily stop "Alligator Alcatraz" from expanding. "We had four days of hearings in court this month. We heard from witnesses that Friends of the Everglades brought, Florida panther experts, we heard about 20 acres of new asphalt that's been laid out at the site in the middle of Big Cypress National Preserve," said Samples. Samples said a decision is expected to be handed down by 2:30 p.m. Thursday. On Wednesday, Democratic Congressman Maxwell Frost visited the site, saying there are now 336 detainees being kept there, down significantly from when the facility opened in early July. "We have cages that are inhumane where people are being held, 32 men to a cage, a cramped four to six of them in tents. It's an internment camp for immigrants and not just all immigrants, but immigrants that look like me, Black and brown folks," said Frost. Officials have said "Alligator Alcatraz" meets all required standards and is in good working order.

Barcelona ready to accept €30m offers for two players
The board at La Liga giants Barcelona would be willing to open the doors to a pair of midfield stars, in the case of a €30 million offer being received for either. That's according to , who point towards Marc Casadó and Fermín López as the duo in question. Barcelona, it is understood, are on the lookout for one big-money sale before the summer is out. Amid constant efforts to balance the books in Catalunya's capital, Deco and co. are prepared to sanction a potentially painful sale. And with as much in mind, the names of Casadó and Fermín have come very much to the fore. Both youngsters – held in high regard across Spain and beyond – boast a whole host of admirers, several of whom would seemingly be willing to splash out on their signatures before the close of the transfer window. And as alluded to above, the kind of proposal set to be required to convince Barcelona of a sale has today been revealed. As per a report from , a €30 million bid for either Casadó or Fermín would likely be accepted. Only one, rather than both, though, would be allowed to depart. Conor Laird – GSFN
