A report has warned of a "destructive" decline(减少) in freshwater fish, with nearly a third in danger of extinction(灭绝). Conservation groups said 80 species were known to have gone extinct, 16 in the last year alone.

The report said, for example, populations of migratory fish have fallen by three-quarters in the last 50 years. Over the same time period, populations of larger species, known as "megafish", have crashed by 94%. In UK waters, the sturgeon and the burbot have disappeared, salmon are disappearing and the European eel remains extremely endangered.

According to the WWF(世界自然基金会), much of the freshwater fish decline is driven by the poor state of rivers, mostly as a result of pollution. Besides, dams and waste water are also the factors. It has called on the government to restore freshwater habitats to good health through proper carrying out of existing laws, strengthening protections in the Environment Bill and championing a strong set of global targets for the recovery of nature.

Dave Tickner, from WWF, said freshwater habitats are some of the most full of life on earth, but as this report shows they are in "destructive" decline around the world. "If we are to take this government's environmental promises seriously, it must get its act together, clean up our rivers and restore our freshwater habitats to good health," said the organization's chief adviser on freshwater.

Carmen Revenga of The Nature Conservancy said freshwater fish are a diverse and unique group of species that are not only important for the healthy functioning of our rivers, lakes and wetlands, but millions of people, particularly the poor, also depend on them for their food and income.

"It's now more urgent than ever that we find the collective political will and effective cooperation with private industries, governments, NGOs(Non-Governmental Organizations) and communities, to carry out nature-based solutions that protect freshwater species, while also ensuring human needs are met," she said.

Dry eye—a condition that occurs when your eyes don't produce enough tears, the tears don't work correctly or they evaporate (蒸发) too quickly—is much more than a bother. “The burning can feel like sand is in your eyes, and this can cause eye tiredness, light insensitivity, and blurry vision," says Angela Bevels, a doctor in Tucson, Arizona.

Nearly 16 million Americans may have dry eye, according to the National Eye Institute. Anyone can develop the problem, but it's more common in women and people over 50.

Sometimes dry eye is a temporary condition caused by a variety of irritants (刺激物). But it can be constant, too, when caused by immune system diseases. Skin issues on or around the eyelids and diseases of the glands (腺) in the eyelids are also common contributors. People who wear contact lenses (隐形眼镜) or have had eye surgeries are also at a higher risk.

Some lifestyle changes can minimize the discomfort. First, take frequent breaks from staring at computer and phone screens, which may cause tears to work overtime, according to Aditya


Kanesa-thasan, MD, an eye doctor at the Wills Eye Hospital in Philadelphia.

Turn off fans or other direct air to your face, as this can increase the evaporative loss of tears as well, he says. Eight to ten glasses of water every day can also play a role in keeping your eyes lubricated (润滑的).

Over-the-counter eye drops can help ease symptoms. But when these solutions don't provide relief or you find you're using drops more than six times a day, it's time to see an eye doctor for treatments.
