Miss Earth 2014: Miss El Salvador Amalia Gonzalez

What is your environmental advocacy and why did you choose this?

Air, I think, is the most affected because of high pollution due to cars and factories. Nowadays, it's very difficult to find places where you can breathe clean air, yet there are still places available which we must protect.

What tip can you share to promote this year's theme, Eco Tourism?

No need to search for life on another planet if there are still plenty waiting to be taken care of and loved here.

Federal officials are quietly terminating the legal residency of some international college students
A crackdown on foreign students is alarming college leaders, who say the Trump administration is using new tactics and vague justifications to push some students out of the country. Students stripped of their entry visas are receiving orders from the Department of Homeland Security to leave the country immediately — a break from past practice that often permitted them to stay and complete their studies. At Minnesota State University in Mankato, President Edward Inch told the campus Wednesday that visas had been revoked for five international students for unclear reasons.
