🔅Monday afternoon - ISRAEL REALTIME - Connecting to Israel in Realtime
🔻ATTACK - DRONES - from Hezbollah - north west border towns: Idmit, Eilon, Goren, Gornot HaGalil, Hanita, Ya'ara, Arab al-Aramshe
🔻IRAN WARNS.. Al Jazeera: Tehran sent a new message to the US through Turkey after the attack on Israel yesterday. An "important and unprecedented" warning message was also sent to Israel via Cairo referring to the fact that there will be an Iranian response to any new "bold act" on Israel's part.
🔻DID BIDEN GIVE IRAN PERMISSION TO HIT ISRAEL? (Maybe Fake) “Iran informed Turkey in advance of its planned operation against Israel, a Turkish diplomatic source told Reuters, adding that Washington had conveyed to Tehran via Ankara that any action it took had to be "within certain limits.””
(( This is possibly FAKE NEWS. It is on many sites and channels, on some is quoted in the name of Reuters, but I can’t find an actual source. ))
🔻ISRAEL RESPONSE (PLANNING).. Israeli sources to CNN: The War Cabinet is determined to respond to the Iranian attack, and is discussing the timing and extent of the response.
Commander of the Home Front Command: "We are in a long war and there may be changes in the coming days in light of the situation assessment. Continue to listen and act according to the instructions - they save lives.”
▪️BOMB ON THE LEBANESE BORDER.. injures 4 soldiers. Hezbollah takes responsibility.
▪️ATTEMPTED TERROR.. at the Deir Sharaf intersection in Samaria: a female terrorist armed with a knife arrived at the soldiers' position at the intersection, who opened fire on her in a suspicious arrest procedure, and she was arrested.
▪️AIR TRAVEL.. EasyJet and Air India suspend flights to Israel. Travelers to and from Israel are struggling to find options.
▪️BETTER FOOD FOR TERRORISTS! The "Association for Civil Rights in Israel" filed a petition with the High Court of Justice against the Minister of National Security as well as against the Israeli Security Service Commissioner, following the reduction of conditions of the Arab convicted prisoners since the outbreak of the war in accordance with the policy of Minister Ben Gvir.
As part of the petition they demand that the court issue a conditional order to the Israeli Security Service to explain why the Arab terrorists, including those who committed the most horrific acts humanly possible, are not given higher quality food and the possibility to buy food (the prison canteen) like criminal prisoners.
▪️ISRAELI HACKERS.. “We launched a broad attack on cellphone systems in Iran and over 20 million telephones received SMS messages, that they must be prepared for war in the coming hours. The Iranians felt the pressure and started withdrawing money from the banks which put the authorities in Iran under pressure.”

Case studies on ESG converting a danger into a benefit
Being an ESG Award in Agile Advisors, as investors everywhere continue to pressure corporate executives to consider how environmental, social, and governance issues affect their bottom line, environmentally conscious investing (ESG) is starting to gain traction. These problems affect all stakeholders and span most of a company's operations by definition. A framework for effective ESG communications must prioritize strategic communication. Black Sun does materiality evaluations to help businesses prioritize and identify their sustainability prospects and concerns. These evaluations consist of a variety of research components, such as focus groups, one-on-one interviews, and stakeholder surveys. As a result of the $30.7 trillion that is currently invested in ESG funds and the realization by businesses that conveying their understanding of the significance of solving ESG issues can unlock considerable, and potentially untapped, cash from investors.
We are Sustainability Awards providers and Agile Advisors, A growing number of businesses across various industries and sizes have approached us in recent years looking for a customized ESG communication plan. Here are a few of the ways we've assisted our clients in identifying and informing important stakeholders like shareholders, prospective investors, and rating agencies about ESG risks and possibilities. Sage, a software firm, asked us to assist them close reporting gaps and enhance disclosures on their website and other platforms so they could rank higher in ESG. To increase scoring, compare the gaps in the raters' and rankers' reporting criteria. In order to obtain the maximum impact from a scoring viewpoint, we prioritized a list of disclosures based on scoring methodology and weightings for each disclosure. We conducted a gap analysis against the reporting standards of Sustainalytics, MSCI, and ISS-ESG.
To assist you as Agile Advisors for ESG Awards, to make sure raters could quickly access disclosures, we also offered a variety of useful and strategic disclosure alternatives for the website and other collateral. The website will be continuously reviewed, and the investor relations section will be reorganized to highlight the investment case and important ESG disclosures. A materiality assessment was necessary for Notting Hill Genesis in order to rank the most important sustainability and ESG messaging concerns. To find the important concerns, 60 internal and external documents were examined and five stakeholder interviews were conducted. Three pillars that were part of the communications narrative development were used to group the issues. Their first sustainability report is organized around the materiality assessment. To pinpoint specific holes in easyJet's communication plan, we conducted research on the peer group's approach to sustainability in terms of actions, pledges, and goals.
In our opinion as Sustainability Award, examined the channels and content of peers to demonstrate how others are use the larger communications toolkit to convey ESG messaging. To make it possible for easyJet to update information in the annual report, sustainability report, and across digital channels, we created comprehensive wireframes and content guidelines that addressed each of the deficiencies that were found. Our contribution was to the formulation of Schroders' unique value proposition. To evaluate Schroders' present communications positioning, an overview of peers' usage of words like ESG, sustainability, and CSR is given, along with a communications audit. In order to develop a clear position for each topic and stakeholder, we then provided a more detailed evaluation of Schroders' Sustainability, ESG, and CSR communications across important stakeholders and channels, identifying gaps, inconsistencies, and overlaps.
As one of the leading ESG Award, in order to ensure that clients realize Schroders is at the forefront of integrating ESG, in a uniform manner across all funds, we finally established a campaign able notion and overall language. In anticipation of the release of its first green bond, Logic or had high standards for its sustainability messaging that had not yet been defined. We conducted seminars with internal stakeholders after thorough onboarding to develop and identify the ESG and wider sustainability strategy, material areas, and reporting communications method with an emphasis on important audiences. After the strategy was decided upon, we created the pagination and content structure, and then we delivered all of the copywritten content along with comprehensive content guidelines. We produced Longicorn’s first ESG report and a plan for continuous, multi-channel sustainability messaging in a compressed two-month timeframe

Food Waste Management Market: Initiating Efficiency Via Sustainability
Over the years, the share of global food wastage has risen significantly, having a detrimental effect on the economy and the environment. As per the Food and Agriculture Organization, nearly one-third of the food gets wasted annually, accounting for around 1.3 billion tons. Moreover, the UN Food Waste Index Report 2021 reported that approximately 17% of the food is wasted at the retail and consumer levels. This food loss indicates the depletion of natural resources, necessitating the development of waste management systems to enhance food security and sustainability. Triton’s analysis suggests that the global food waste management market is estimated to expand with a CAGR of 5.66% from 2023 to 2030.
Additionally, the market is expected to garner revenue worth $63.31 billion by 2030. Governments globally are acknowledging the importance of food waste management solutions. For instance, in February 2023, the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) invested more than $9.4 million in 45 compost and food waste reduction projects that support scalable waste management plans to decrease and deflect food waste from landfills.
Global food depletion has paved the path for innovative solutions, from organic feed production to technology-driven waste management. Let’s take a deeper look into these major trends.
Harnessing Organic Waste Power: Driving Efficiency in Animal Feed and Fertilizer Production
One of the key sustainable solutions to reduce food wastage in landfills is its use in animal feed production, particularly livestock. This waste management solution simultaneously helps address issues like food security, resource conservation, pollution, and climate change. As per Triton’s analysis, in terms of the recycling service segment, the animal feed category is estimated to advance with a CAGR of 6.29% over 2023-2030.
Moreover, this sustainable method contributes heavily to a circular economy, prompting various strategic initiatives. For instance, in January 2023, Nest Co-Founder Matt Rogers introduced a new service that enables consumers to turn household waste into chicken feed for $33 per month.
Further, foods such as fruits, vegetables, dairy, cereals, bread, etc., have emerged as key fertilizing agents, enhancing soil health, reducing erosion, and improving water quality. Likewise, organic food waste can be used for natural gas and biofuel production, lessening reliance on fossil fuels. Given these parameters, fruits and vegetables is anticipated to emerge as the fastest-growing waste type at a CAGR of 6.02% during the forecast period 2023-2030. In addition to being a good source of micro and macronutrients, food waste eliminates various plant diseases. Hence, the increasing trend of conversion of organic food waste to animal feed and fertilizer widens the global scope of food waste management.
Combating Food Wastage with Tech-Driven Management
In the waste management sector, there has been a growing inclination among the leading players to reconsider conventional methods and adopt cutting-edge solutions. In this regard, big data has enabled organizations to accurately gain data on garbage levels, increasing operational efficiency. Further, smart waste management via AI, machine learning, and IoT improves every facet of trash management, from collection to recycling.
Accordingly, easyJet Holidays, in March 2023, introduced an AI-powered hotel food waste reduction scheme in partnership with Winnow. This scheme will enable partner hotels to leverage AI to run more sustainable kitchens.
Furthermore, according to the US Department of Agriculture, around 30-40% of the food supply is wasted, costing approximately $218 billion. Moreover, food accounts for 24% of the solid waste in landfills. This high wastage resulted in the introduction of a federal interagency strategy between USDA, EPA, and FDA to address food waste under the Winning on Reducing Food Waste Initiative. As a result, government initiatives backed by technological advancements fuel the North America food waste management market’s expansion, spearheaded by the United States.
Increased Food Demand Necessitates Effective Management
As per United Nations, the global human population reached 8 billion in mid-November 2022. This number is expected to surge by nearly 2 billion by 2050. This will boost food consumption, simultaneously adding to food wastage levels. Additionally, the growing demand for ready-to-eat meals and flexible packaging solutions has soared retail and eCommerce food sales in recent years.
What’s more, with around 11.3% of the world’s population suffering from chronic hunger and malnutrition, effective food management has become crucial for businesses and communities. As a result, the need to create workable, sustainable solutions to escalating food waste is estimated to create opportunities for the food waste management market.
FAQs:
Q1) What is the size of the food waste management market?
In 2022, the global food waste management market garnered $40.55 million.
Q2) Which are the major food waste types?
Fruits & vegetables, processed food, cereal, and dairy products are major food waste types.

New Post has been published on https://yaroreviews.info/2023/08/we-can-avoid-flight-chaos-in-future-says-air-traffic-boss
We can avoid flight chaos in future, says air traffic boss
PA Media
By Katy Austin & Sam Hancock
BBC News
The flight chaos caused by a data processing glitch should not happen again, the head of National Air Traffic Services has said.
Martin Rolfe told the BBC that measures were in place to protect against the “incredibly rare” system failure which has left hundreds of flights cancelled.
“If that happens again, we can resolve it very, very quickly,” he said.
Thousands of passengers faced a nightmare Bank Holiday Monday, with many left stuck abroad and in the UK.
Some people slept on airport floors or in makeshift beds, while many scrambled to rebook flights.
Passengers reported being left out of pocket after arranging alternative transport and accommodation following the cancellation of more than 1,500 flights on Monday.
The delays and cancellations continued into Tuesday despite the air traffic control issue being fixed as the disruption had left planes and pilots out of place.
Nats controls most aircraft in UK airspace and receives millions of flight plans every year.
Airlines submit every flight path to the national control centre and these should automatically be shared with Nats controllers.
But on Monday, Nats received data that it could not process.
Mr Rolfe said the system was designed to “fail safely” if this happened, to make sure erroneous information could not be passed on to air traffic controllers.
This caused Nats to revert to a manual system – meaning fewer flights could be handled. For several hours they had to manually input flight routes, rather than it happen automatically, which was slower and caused a huge backlog.
Mr Rolfe apologised to those affected, insisting he was confident the situation would not arise in the same way again.
What are my rights if my flight is cancelled or delayed?

“We understand the way the system didn’t handle the data… the way it failed, if you like,” he said.
He added that procedures had already been put in place to make sure the error could be solved quickly were it to arise again.
Nats remedied the fault around three hours after announcing it just before midday on Monday, but widespread disruption had already occurred in that time.
The incident will be investigated by the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA). Nats has confirmed there were no signs the failure was caused by a cyber-attack.
Tim Jeans, a former director of Ryanair and Monarch Airlines and chair of Newquay Airport until 2021, said regulations meant that people would entitled to claim expenses incurred from airlines and tour operators, including for accommodation, as a result of flights being cancelled.
He said the data glitch was “certainly perplexing” and added it was “very concerning that one piece of flight data can bring down the whole system”.
He said airlines pay hundreds of millions of pounds per year to Nats for the service and would be “rightly asking” questions over the system.
After chairing a meeting between Nats, the CAA, airlines, airports, trade bodies and Border Force, Transport Secretary Mark Harper said on Tuesday that knock-on effects of the disruption were likely to continue over the coming days.
He advised anyone due to travel in that time to check with airlines before heading to the airport.
In its latest statement, EasyJet offered to put on extra flights to help bring people back to the UK. The boss of Ryanair, meanwhile, said it had had to cancel about 250 flights already, affecting around 40,000 passengers.
One such passenger, Sarah Skellern, told BBC News she and her family were forced to sleep on the floor of Palma de Mallorca Airport, Spain, after waiting on a Jet2 aircraft for six hours before it was cancelled.
Mrs Skellern, from near Preston, Lancashire, described “absolute chaos” at Palma de Mallorca Airport. She and her family eventually got a flight home the next day.
Jonny Beattie was due to fly back from Faro in Portugal to Belfast with his family on Monday, but now is unable to get a flight until next Monday, which means his children are missing the start of the school year.
He said he received a phone notification from easyJet when he and his family arrived at the airport to say their flight was delayed, before being told it was cancelled.
“You could see everybody went [to] panic stations,” he said. “Some people were already checking flights and we could see we couldn’t get any flights until next Monday.
Mr Beattie said he managed to rebook the accommodation that they had just left, but added it was going to cost him just under £1,000.
“My wife was due to go back to work on Wednesday, my kids were supposed to be starting back at school but there’s been no further communication from easyJet at all,” he added.
Analysis of flight data websites showed at least 281 flights – including departures and arrivals – were cancelled on Tuesday at the UK’s six busiest airports.
This consisted of 75 at Gatwick, 74 at Heathrow, 63 at Manchester, 28 at Stansted, 23 at Luton and 18 at Edinburgh.

First Take: Greatest Days - take that back to the writers’ room and don’t do it like this
SYNOPSIS: A feature adaptation of the 'The Band' musical, featuring the songs of Take That.
Well, of all the ideas for films, Amazon had to plough some money into a little indie film based on Tim Firth and Take That’s musical which premiered a couple of years ago. Obviously it was only really gonna do well here in the UK for very understandable reasons, but the fact that there’s been no press kit and only a trailer should’ve been sounding the alarm bells. It’s not good. At all.
youtube
Coky Giedroyc directs this one (the Giedroycs seem to have a lot of involvement with this musical, as her younger sister Mel helped cast the original musical via BBC show Let It Shine), and while she’s still fairly new to directing at feature length, her experience working on TV shows came in handy, because at 1 hour 52 minutes, it does feel more like an extended TV special than a film made for the big screen. Firth’s script has some serious issues too, one minute we’re seeing that group of friends during the peak of Take That - or to give them their name in the film, The Boys’ popularity, the next, we get emotional moments, then back to the joy of the reunion - it is so disjointed that you could tell it was literally just the book from the show but adapted for the big screen. It’s shot decently by Mike Eley, and Nick Foster and Oli Julian’s score is alright - but don’t get me started on the obvious product placement for Easyjet, that apparently isn’t product placement because they loaned that aircraft free of charge as it was being refurbished. Would it be a birthday marathon film review without at least one rant?
On to the cast then, and Aisling Bea carries this film single handedly, partly as she was a script consultant herself - supporting her is Alice Lowe, Amaka Omafor, Jayde Adams and Marc Wooton. Then you have a boyband who *look like* the actual band this film is about, but don’t sound, or act like the actual band. And speaking of the real deal, would it be a musical biopic without a cameo from the actual subjects? Yes, Gary Barlow, Howard Donald and Mark Owen do appear briefly in a cameo, but aside from that, there aren’t too many good things to report. It’s had its cinema run, it’ll be on Prime fairly soon, and it’ll probably have more success on a streamer compared to on the big screen - the most interesting thing about my screening was a projector issue just before the film started. Yes, really.
THE VERDICT
There was some serious potential for Greatest Days - if rumours are true this was initially going to be a Hollywood film with Rebel Wilson being involved - but the studios said no. And to be honest, if that happened, why did they push on and make this thing regardless? At least the songs are actually good though.
RATING: 2/5

Airport denies 110 Britons entry
Innsbruck airport refused to allow 110 British tourists entry into Austria because they had not followed updated Covid restrictions, it has emerged.
Police said many were probably caught out on Sunday by a new rule requiring a negative PCR test within 48 hours.
Austrian opposition politicians blamed the health minister for failing to update restrictions on the internet.
Most of the tourists were flown home immediately but 40 were put up overnight in a hotel.
Of those 40, 12 were allowed to take new PCR tests and continue with their holidays, the local authority in Innsbruck said.
British travelers arriving in Innsbruck for skiing holidays in the western Tyrol region on Sunday were met by what some of them described as chaos, as the airport implemented new rules that came into effect on Christmas Day for arrivals from the UK, the Netherlands, Denmark, and Norway because of the spread of the Omicron variant of coronavirus many business listings.
While 70 of those arriving in Innsbruck were able to fly home on the day, the other 40 were not and were quarantined in an Innsbruck hotel for the night. The 12 people eventually allowed in were reportedly all families with children.
The restrictions, currently displayed on the Austrian UK embassy website, require anyone over the age of 12 to have a third Covid vaccination and a negative PCR test taken within 48 hours of arrival. Under the previous rules, a negative PCR test had to be taken within 72 hours of arrival.
While many reportedly had older PCR tests, some also had not received booster doses.
One tourist, Victoria Win Stanley, said on social media that the team checking Covid certificates for an EasyJet flight either did not have up-to-date information or were not checking them properly. The BBC has approached EasyJet for comment business listings.
Local opposition People's Party tourism spokesman Franz Hörl said he had no problem with tighter restrictions on countries such as the UK labeled "virus variant areas".
His issue was with a "botched" operation that he called neither professional nor humane, to bring in tourists over the Christmas period, take them to a hotel under police protection and then send them home at their own expense, he told the APA news agency.
·French ski season in disarray as UK tourists banned
·Tighter Covid restrictions imposed across Europe
He said Health Minister Wolfgang Mückstein was to blame because the old restrictions were still showing on the relevant government websites.
Austria's Tyrol is especially sensitive to further outbreaks of Covid-19 in its famous ski resorts. The resort of Ischgl was linked to cases in 45 countries at the start of the pandemic when skiers returned home with the virus in February and March 2020 free business listings.
Earlier this month, France banned British holidaymakers from its ski resorts, barring all non-essential travel from the UK.

On perfume:
I've been thinking a bit about scents, now that it's colder. When you hug someone and you smell something interesting - it's a great feeling. The joy of touch and then sensual expression. The New Yorker writer, Rachel Syme also regularly does this thing on her Twitter called "Perfume Genie" where she picks a perfume for someone based on moods/memories.
ISAMAYA FFRENCH has also hinted that she's going to do perfumes, expanding her beauty empire.
Sustainability:

Reading List:
Vestoj archives this week are doing a little heavy lifting. I miss this journal a lot...
"Doubt is essential to creativity. It’s the point of creation, when all the possibilities open to you start to vibrate and you actively choose where to go, and what to make."
*interview with Christophe Lemaire on the systems of fashion
TTYL!

Europe 2022 - Day 23 - Hausen to Willingen
Today Leonie was going home to the town of Willingen, and I was tagging along. I would make a pit stop in her home town for the night, continuing on the next day to the metropolitan area of Dortmund/Dusseldorf/Cologne/Bonn. The scheduling started pretty quick with hiccups, as there were already late trains. But Leonie hatched a plan, and Julia gave us a helping hand by saving some train time by driving us to Würzburg, a larger town to the west and home to Julia’s brother Dani’s university.
Unfortunately, we did not get to see any of Würzburg other than when we driving in. We hopped on the train, and realized our next stop would have a missed connection, so on the fly Leonie rerouted us, and we stayed on the train to Frankfurt, one of the largest cities in Germany. I appreciate that she can think on her feet like that - I feel like I can too, but in a different country it’s much tougher when you don’t know the lay of the land or what you can and can’t get away with. I was glad she was there. It was also nice chatting with her, and I realized we had not had that opportunity by ourselves since Portland.
We arrived in Frankfurt, and had half an hour to kill, so I had some food, and then it was a few more trains. I wish there was something exciting here to tell, but I got nada. The very last train we took was pretty local, and chugged through the countryside at 30 miles an hour. However, the land was beautiful, and golden trees were dropping their leaves for the winter.
We finally made it to our drop station in Brilon, which Leonie had some choice words for. “Why is their train station such shit?” she asked. “This is such a shit town - the sun’s about to go down.” And indeed, the sun was close behind the mountain of the valley we were in, thereby cutting direct sunlight ahead of schedule by at least 90 minutes.
We made our way to Usseln, a suburb/co-village of Willingen, where Leonie dropped her stuff and tidied up before we headed to her mother’s house. After a dinner of traditional dumpling with speck (bacon[ish]), which I had never had but was tasty, it was off to bed for more travel the next day.
I get it, not the most exciting blog I’ve written. So I will add: Back in long long ago, it was a thing to take the train in Europe. In fact, there is a program called EuroRail (I think) where you can buy packages, like a 10 day card that lets you take pretty much any train in any country to anywhere. But the packages can be expensive, and even if you like the journey, how much does any one person want to be on a train?
Add to the rise of low-cost airlines such as Ryan Air, EasyJet and Vueling, and suddenly taking 10-12 hours to go from Paris to Munich seems ridiculous when you can fly on a jet in an hour for $20. Especially when you do occasionally take the train as I have, and it takes you through barren land with nothing to see or the same shit a thousand times over.
However, that is not Germany. While I have noted the issues with their train systems (and it happens in most every country, TBH), Germany is a country that is laid out both naturally and by people, that lends to the train experience. Towns are built on rivers, and rivers flow everywhere, so towns tend to be relatively evenly spaced throughout the country. In addition, many towns are 500-1000 years (or more) old, and so each town is incredibly self-sustaining, meaning they provide things for their residents that US towns would not. In other words, there’s very little you need to go to the next town for. This is in stark contrast to the US where you may not see a town for a hundred miles, and when you do, they tell you that for certain things you gotta go to the town four towns over.
What this means is that you can get off at almost any little village and find something of interest. In addition, since the trains connect most of these little villages, you run past forests and streams and diverse agriculture, whether it’s the trees and hills of the Black Forest, the vineyards in Pfaff, the castles of Bavaria, or the rolling hills of Hesse. It’s all beautiful, and you should try it sometime.
