The Israeli Knessent celebrated twice this week -
Once her birthday
And once - thirty years of Birding
Of the Society for the Protection of Nature in Israel.
During the events, the Internal Affairs and Environment Protection Committees discussed on minimizing damages caused by using pest controllers, which harms animals and human health.
1) Fast-neutron reactors could extract more energy from recycled nuclear fuel than current reactors, reduce nuclear proliferation risks, and markedly decrease the time nuclear waste must be isolated.
2) The article discusses how fast-neutron reactors and pyrometallurgical processing of spent nuclear fuel could form a nuclear fuel cycle that reduces radioactivity in waste to safe levels within a few hundred years, eliminating the need to isolate waste for tens of thousands of years.
3) Current nuclear power plants produce waste that remains highly radioactive for thousands of years, but fast-neutron reactors and recycling could make nuclear power truly sustainable and reduce its drawbacks related to waste and resource depletion.

הכנסת חגגה השבוע פעמיים -
גם את יום הולדתה
וגם שלושים שנות צפרות
של החברה להגנת הטבע בישראל.
במסגרת האירועים דנה ועדת הפנים והגנת הסביבה בנושא מיזעור נזקי השימוש בחומרי הדברה, הגורמים לפגיעה בבעלי החיים - ובבריאות האדם
מאז שנכנסו החקלאים לעידן החקלאות המודרנית, החל מאבק מתמשך ומתיש בנסיונות להדביר מזיקים. השימוש המוגבר בחומרי ההדברה שפותחו במאה הקודמת גרם לנזקים חמורים ביותר לאדם ולסביבה. בחרנו בקיבוץ שדה-אליהו, בשנת 1983 כדי לקדם את רעיון השימוש בתנשמות כמדבירות ביולוגיות (של מכרסמים בכלל ושל נברנים בפרט) בשטחים חקלאיים. הכוונה הייתה לפתח את היוזמה בצעדים מדודים, תוך בחינת הרעיון של רישות השדות החקלאיים בתיבות קינון לתנשמות.
בדצמבר 2002 קיימנו סמינר משותף עם 14 חקלאים ירדניים מובילים, המעבדים את הקרקע מצדו השני של עמק בית שאן, המהווה המשך ישיר לתחומי השיטוט של התנשמות (ואכן חלק מהתנשמות המסומנות חצו את הגבול לירדן ולא ברור מה עלה בגורלן). החלטנו ששנת 2004 תהיה "שנת הפריצה", שבה ננסה להעביר את הידע והניסיון שנרכשו בקיבוץ שדה-אליהו לאזורים חקלאיים נוספים בישראל.
אנו מקווים שבשנים הקרובות נצליח במשותף לרַשת את השדות החקלאיים בתיבות קינון לתנשמות ובזים, התצטרפו למאבק, תוך מעקב אחר ההצלחות והכישלונות, ובכוחות משותפים ללמוד מניסיון החקלאים כדי לשפר את השיטה, ובכך לתרום לקידום חקלאות ידידותית לסביבה.
The document summarizes achievements and awards for the educational project "Migrating Birds Know No Boundaries":
1) The project won an EU award in 2003 for providing alternative ways of learning geography, physics, biology and new technologies through an interactive computer-based project involving 230 Israeli schools exchanging information with schools in Palestine, Jordan and Europe.
2) In 2002, the educational program implemented at Ort Kramim School won fourth place in an international competition among 760 schools for e-learning.
3) In 2005, the project was published in the prestigious Intel-Innovation-Education journal and featured on the Intel international education website.

The document summarizes a lecture day event held at Tel Aviv University about the Israeli Air Force and birds. Over 600 people attended lectures on topics such as the European Space Agency's activities, the history of transporting Ethiopian immigrants to Israel, and research on bats and insects. Photos show attendees interacting with guest speakers, which included former military officers, scientists, and a singer. The day included musical performances and multiple sessions with speakers on nature, aviation, and cooperation between the air force and environmental organizations.
El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.

Here is Gabe Whitley's response to my defamation lawsuit for him calling me a rapist and perjurer in court documents.
You have to read it to believe it, but after you read it, you won't believe it. And I included eight examples of defamatory statements/
Acolyte Episodes review (TV series) The Acolyte. Learn about the influence of the program on the Star Wars world, as well as new characters and story twists.
