Evidence suggests that early humans, possibly as early as 70,000 years ago, migrated from East Africa to what is now Yemen, crossing the Bab-el-Mandeb strait in the Red Sea, making Yemen a potential "ground zero" for the first steps outside of Africa.

Below is a picture showing starved children of somalia and food waste generated in Africa

The world's most influential environmental firm, The UNEP is running a launch

Of the 2024 Global Report on Food Crises#GRFC24 to hear from experts on food security.

This following a statement by UNEP reporting; Global hunger is increasing. Yet, 1.05 billion tonnes of food is wasted per year, while the climate crisis increasingly threatens food security in many parts of the world.

Environmental issues like this are still in addressed due to unawareness of the issues and/ or ways to tackle them.

One of the most vital and effective ways tackle environmental issues that involve waste production is RECYCLING.

Here are 4 ways to reduce food waste individually/ domestically

Recycling food by planting the parts that re-grow. These parts include seeds, skin the core and others. Planting of these parts will not only re-produce food but reduce market consumption and the plants performs as carbon sinks thereby reducing carbon and other pollutants in the atmosphere that cause climate change.

Unlike tossing food and contributing to the tonnes of food waste while others linger in hunger crisis, There are many delicious food dishes that can be created with left over food. Leftover food can be put to good use with minimal Internet research.

Food waste can be recycled into compost. The food waste produced by domestic homes can be Millions of tones of food waste that can be used as compost that can be used in gardens to for a good produce of a lot of healthy organic food.

A lot of people around the globe depend on pastoral and poultry produced food. These have been affected by climate change having contributed to the hunger crisis the globe is facing. Food waste produced domestically can be recycled to ideally organic animal feed or at least donated to animal feed producing firms. This can help increase food production, that is healthier as well as reduce food waste.

Egypt’s leader el-Sissi slams Ethiopia-Somaliland coastline deal and vows support for Somalia | The Independent

It seems like every day we're edging closer to global war. This is yet another conflict that has it's roots in European colonialism. The good old British Empire ran the colony of British Somaliland. The Republic of Somaliland is its successor. The rest of Somalia descends from Italian Somaliland, and the old colonial divides remain.

Somalia has been in chaos for decades, while Somaliland has had de facto independence since 1991 and is generally functioning better as a state than Somalia, yet it is largely unrecognised.

Somalia is ready to go to war over this because it's an affront to its sovereignty. Egypt is ready to go to war to protect its water security. There's going to be more of this climate change worsens, with nations going to war over water. It's not just them and Ethiopia that could get drawn in: Eritrea, which took Ethiopia's coastal access with it when it broke away in 1991 after 30 years of war, and the Sudan, already in the middle of a huge and brutal civil war, will likely be drawn in as well. Egypt also borders Israel and has been drawn into that Israel-Hamas conflict, which has already caused a domino-run of conflicts across the world.

Why Only Palestine and Not Biafra, Kurds, Uyghurs, and Somalilanders? The Selective Recognition of Statehood

#Somaliland has achieved remarkable stability & democratic governance yet remains unrecognized by the international community. A consistent approach to #SelfDetermination is needed to address the plight of stateless nations like Somaliland

[generallemarc]

Somaliland has been functionally independent for decades but is not recognized by any other country, or even other non-recognized states. This would be the first legitimate(aka non-Russian-puppet) instance of a non-recognized state gaining recognition since Kosovo.
