As Valentine’s week nears, many couples are excited to celebrate their love and romance. However, this is not the case for everyone. A lot of people despise the concept of Valentine’s because of past relationship trauma and unworthy exes. What if you were told that there is a way to get your cockroach of an ex eaten by animals, alive? No, this will not murder your ex in reality, but you will never find a better way to move on.

The San Antonio Zoological Society has come up with an idea for people to name a cockroach or rat after their ex-boyfriend or girlfriend. The event is called Cry Me a Cockroach, which is organised every year on Valentine’s Day. The society took to their Twitter handle and said that if people donate, their ex will be fed to an animal. They will also receive certificates.

There are some zoos in Pennsylvania, like Lehigh Valley Zoo, where people are allowed to name a bug after their former boyfriend or girlfriend. After this, these bugs are fed to their animals. All of this is done for just $5 or Rs 374.

Lehigh Valley Zoo came up with this brilliantly vicious, yet harmful idea, and took to their official Twitter handle to advertise. They said that they get it that sometimes, love sucks. So instead of feeling down that their love may not last forever, people should put a twist on Valentine’s Day and name a bug after their ex. They mentioned that all people have to do is to make a $5 donation to name one of the feeder crickets, and they will feed them to their ambassador animals. The offer is open till February 14, 2022.

This is not it. The Lehigh Zoo Website will also upload weekly videos on Facebook for people to see their ex’s big-avatar getting eaten.

Indeed, for every undeserving ex, there is a bug waiting to be eaten.

Winters are at our doorstep, and toxicity in the air of the surroundings is looming over our heads. India’s fight against novel coronavirus has been facing a range of certain hurdles and challenges. In the world’s coronavirus tally, India records the second-largest number of coronavirus cases till date. Considering the increase in the air pollution level, fighting against COVID-19 will cause major setbacks. While both pollution and virus attack lungs, the second most populous country in the world is set to face a lot of strain, not only to tackle the situation, but also to deliver facilities and equipment.

Here’s how air pollution with COVID-19 is a double trouble for Indians:

Covid-19 mixed with air pollution is double-trouble for India?

Scientific studies from a long ago have been showing the connections between air pollution and other respiratory illnesses. In one of the largest studies, about 15% of people worldwide were in a long-term exposure to fine particulate air pollution.

As per the reports generated by Harvard and Emory University, there can be some link between the increased death rate from COVID-19 and long term exposure to pollution. 

In their investigation, they analysed the role of particulate matter, ozone as well as nitrogen oxides in COVID-19 death after comparing death rates to pollution levels and other potential factors.

How Toxic Air in India will affect lives?

As per the world health organization, toxic air is able to kill seven million people around a year globally. Also, a short term exposure to air pollution can result in long term respiratory illness. 

Burning of thousands of acres of crops, and celebration of festivals with firecrackers, especially in the northern states of India reveal how human lives are again under great threat.

What can be done?

Don’t forget to follow the covid-19 protection guidelines like practising social distancing, wearing masks, washing hands and sanitizing frequently touched surfaces. Whether it’s about celebrating Diwali or other festivals, avoid burning crackers. One should avoid outdoor activities as much as you can, as air quality may be contaminated. Other than this, have a healthy diet in order to boost immunity.
