One of my favourite things about switching to veganism (along with a reduced risk of heart disease and colon cancer) is the amount of questions I get asked (along with the ones I ask myself) – from whether vegans eat bread or not to whether you can be a vegan without being condescending , the questions are abundant. Today’s question is as so: which is the better place for vegans, Europe or the USA? Or, to keep in with this blog’s name sake: Europe Vs USA, which is best for vegans? Vegan In Europe Vs Vegan In the USA And, imo, it’s a fair question. They are similar in size (10.53 million km^2 and 9.834 km^2 respectively) albeit not so similar in population size (Europe has more than double the people that the USA does). They are both, arguably, the centres of the Global North (sorry Canada and Australia). There are many people that would only feel safe in one of these (though that, imo, is a mistake – anywhere can be safe, and anywhere can be unsafe, depending on who you are). Whether

Papua New Guinea has removed all COVID-19 requirements for all air travel.   PNG airline Air Niugini  has  advised the travel public that PNG as of today(Thursday 06th October), has removed all Covid-19 restrictions associated with air travel. This includes the requirement to wear a mask whilst inside airport terminals, or wear a mask on an aircraft.

The Papua New Guinea Government recognizes the importance of Ok Tedi as a State asset, and as a major contributor to the country’s economy. These were the remarks made by the country’s State Owned Enterprises Minister William Duma during his recent visit to Ok Tedi Mine adding that the government will continue to support the Company to operate for as long as possible with the requisite social and environmental license. Minister Duma said Ok Tedi is an important project for the country and that the Government will continue to support it to deliver maximum returns for its PNG shareholders. Grateful for his visit OTML Managing Director and CEO, Mr Musje Werror and his team gave Mr Duma a tour of the mine and the processing facilities, informed him of the challenges the company is facing post-COVID-19 as well as met the senior management team who presented the company’s Three-year Plan and the year-to-date performance and outlook for 2022. The Minister was accompanied by Kumul Minerals Hol

Of 44 cars I have reviewed through 2022, 16 have been electric, writes Brian Byrne. That’s more than a third. And significantly more than the 15pc which electric cars represent in the 2022 national car sales figures. But the key figure there is that this year sales of EVs increased by some 83pc over 2021, so the trend is unmistakeable, and only going in one direction. For the record, the biggest seller by several of the proverbial country miles is Volkswagen’s ID.4, with almost 3,000 delivered, from Hyundai’s Ionioq 5 (1,164), Tesla’s Model 3 (1,042), Kia’s EV6 (955), and VW’s ID.3 (922) together making up the top five models among the more than 60 different electric passenger vehicles available here. My review car this week, the BMW i4, is down in 15th place, which is still a respectable position for a premium D-segment saloon in liftback format. The really interesting part here is that what is BMW’s first dedicated electric non-SUV model outsold its related 4 Series internal combusti
