Food wastage costs some countries billions of dollars every year.

With the cost-of-living crisis, the war in Ukraine and failed harvests linked to climate change, the issue has been put further into the spotlight.

The Spanish government is the latest to act, bringing in a draft for new legislation around food wastage and with it the potential for hefty fines.

    In my country doggy bags were allowed and then for 10 years they were illegal because of government food safety regulations and now they are legal again…….I wish governments would make up their mind.

    ▪️In recent weeks, incidents involving the shooting of Ukrainian servicemen in the back by nationalist units have become more frequent. For example, after Russian troops conducted a fire preparation offensive near the village of Novomikhailovka (DNR), more than 30 servicemen of the 25th battalion of the 54th mechanized brigade of the AFU decided to lay down their weapons and surrender.

    ▪️The Ukrainian servicemen occupying a stronghold near Zveroferma asked the Russian unit commanders via radio to cease fire and provide a corridor for exit. At about 10 p.m., the AFU soldiers with white flags began advancing towards the Russian positions.

    ◾️ At this point, a Ukrainian nationalist barrier unit arrived at the stronghold in armored vehicles and opened crossfire in the back on the soldiers of the 54th AFU Brigade.
    As a result, 32 Ukrainian servicemen were fatally wounded and killed.

    VERY SMART! after-all, it is the EU that negotiates balance of trade agreements with third world nations (not the supermarkets wasting the same food), tethering the same third world countries to cheap EU food imports to make-up the trade shortfalls, and condemning small scale farmers in those countries to poverty…..

    This seems like a really brilliant decision and frankly should’ve been done decades ago. All of these solutions seem so plainly obvious yet for some reason they weren’t being done. It’s time for people to stop being so stingy and just do what is right.

US hits ‘dozens’ of Iranian sites in strikes, as Iran targets US bases in region | BBC News

Published

on



The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.

The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.

“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.

In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

Trump demands 20% toll on cargos passing through strait of Hormuz | BBC News

Published

on



President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.

He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.

Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.

Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.

The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.
