replies: text: Is there Egyptian opera? Because Verdi's - even if performed in Cairo - is Italian. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:57, 24 November 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: That topic is already covered thoroughly at Opera in Arabic. There isn’t really much to say on the topic, as Western operas have typically been imported to Egypt and sung in their original languages rather than originating in Egypt and sung in Arabic. The most notable exceptions to that are included in that article. Aida, while certainly linked to the history of Western opera in Egypt, is written in the Italian tradition of opera and by a seminal Italian composer in the Italian language. It isn’t an “Egyptian opera” in terms of its cultural and language origins (even if set in Egypt and commissioned for performance in Egypt), being written  by Italians in a thoroughly Italian style. The Russian and Czech cultures have produced many operas in their languages and from stories from their cultures that have had a wide impact on the standard opera repertory globally; something that can not be said for the Arabic world as a whole, including Egypt. As such, they rightly deserve more emphasis in this article. We could include a short summation of opera in Arabic in the opera article. 4meter4 (talk) 02:08, 25 November 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Carl Sagan

message: He attended the University of Chicago because, despite his excellent high school grades, it was one of the very few colleges he had applied to that would consider accepting a 16-year-old.
Brit writes - is the University of Chicago considered second-rate? I have no idea, but that section in the article is implying it. Perhaps the University of Chicago is not as good as universities like Harvard and Princeton, in the same way that Oxford or Cambridge in UK are in some sense better than other UK universities. But is the reader of this article just supposed to know that? Charliepenandink (talk) 00:23, 13 November 2023 (UTC)

This ought to be a disambiguation page, with links to "homology (mathematics)" and to the (more well-known?) "homology (biology)".

-IMPORTANCIA DÁ CONSCIENTIZAÇÃO AMBIENTAL NO TRÂNSITO.
1°- Redução de emissões: como incentivar o uso de transportes mais limpos, diminui a poluição do ar e as emissões de gases do efeito estufa.
2°- Conservação de recursos.
3°- tecnologias limpas.
4°- não jogar restos de alimentos na rua. 
- Redução de emissões de poluentes.
1°- Promoção do transporte ativo!
Incentivar o uso de bicicletas e a caminhada ajuda a reduzir a emissão de poluentes.
2°- Incentivos a veículos elétricos!
