The importance of shipping routes thrown up by the Panama Canal

The Panama Canal, located in Central America and connecting the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, has attracted much attention in recent years. In addition to U.S. President Trump's insistence on the "return of the Canal," abnormal weather and other factors have caused the water level of the Canal to drop, affecting logistics in Japan and other parts of the world. An examination of the problems posed by the Panama Canal suggests to us that it is important not only to stabilize the water level of the Canal, but also to establish safe navigation throughout the world.

Why Women Aren’t Where They Are Needed in the Workforce: Putting the Pieces Together

It introduces the complex issues at play in today's workplace that contribute to creating a work culture that too often is unfriendly to women and subtly or not so subtly drives women from the workforce, particularly from science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) related fields.
