environmental damage

In Loose of Earth, a story of a tight-knit evangelical family in West Texas, the oldest daughter tries to make sense of the contradictions of the world she is warned about and the world she has to occupy. When her father contracts cancer from "forever chemicals" her world come crashing down. The memoir is Loose of Earth, and we hear from the author Kathleen Dorothy Blackburn.

The failed launch of SpaceX's Starship rocket from Boca Chica in South Texas last week did more than explode the world's largest rocket. It caused more environmental damage than expected.
