Four in ten households in Sri Lanka food insecure – WFP

COLOMBO (News 1st) – The latest report from the World Food Program reveals that four in ten housholds in Sri Lanka are consuming inadequate diets.The World Food Program said that the intensifying economic crisis continues to threaten food security, and the persistence of high food and fuel prices has pushed food further out of each. The WFP warned that in the face of inaction, the situation could deteriorate even further.Highlighting the fact that diets are in a precarious state among Sri Lankans, the World Food Program said that four in ten households are facing insufficient food consumption, with many consuming far less diverse diets as food prices remain high across the country.To date, WFP has received a total of US$29.35 million from the governments of Australia, Italy, Japan, New Zealand, Norway, United States and Switzerland, as well as from the UN Central Emergency Response Fund, private sector partners, and multilateral donors. This represents nearly half of its emergency appeal for US$63 million.

(Texas Parks and Wildlife Department) BROWNSVILLE, Texas - Be careful about what you're adding to your next crawfish boil as an invasive crayfish has been found in Texas.The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department says that the Australian Redclaw Crayfish showed up this year in Brownsville.Researchers first found them over the winter, and then they reappeared in July along a two-mile stretch between an apartment pond and a wetland area.This is only the second time scientists have found the crustacean in the wild in the continental U.S. "We don’t know when these invasive crayfish were first introduced or how far they have spread, but we do know they can have a negative effect on local species and biodiversity," said the department’s aquatic biologist, Archis Grubh, in a press release. "Spreading the word about this invasive species and reporting sightings to TPWD can help us better understand where it is distributed and potentially take steps to help prevent its spread."States from New York to North Carolina are issuing quarantines for the spotted lanternfly, an invasive, plant-killing pest.INVASIVE PEST READY TO SWARM AND EAT ITS WAY ACROSS AMERICAOfficials fear the newcomer would threaten the survival of native crayfish.

Furthermore, those who test positive down under are still required to isolate for a mandatory seven-day period.That is no longer the case in the UK though, with McGrath, 26, waking up the morning of Sunday's final with mild symptoms.
