Will the world save Antarctica in time? 4YOU 98.5FM Capricorn Community Radio
Antarcticas rich biodiversity is at risk from fishing and mining. China and Russia look set to block the wildlife protection proposals as they see value in the immense wealth of minerals and sea life as an opportunity for plunder.
An international meeting being held in Chile this week will aim to break a deadlock over proposals to protect this precious environment.

Lebanon Fails to Elect President 4YOU 98.5FM Capricorn Community Radio
Lebanon, a once vibrant tourist hotspot, has been in crisis for years. Corruption of officials long pre-dating the pandemic was exacerbated by COVID-19. Since then, Lebanon has endured the Beirut ammonium nitrate explosion of 2020 that destroyed 77 000 apartments, wounded 7000 people and displaced 300 000 people. Rapid inflation has seen the countrys currency, the Lebanese Pound, lose over ninety-five percent of its value in February of this year effectively rendering the currency useless Now the Lebanese economy runs on American dollars.
Education has increased by 191% and healthcare has increased by 176% leading to severe medication shortages, including cancer drugs, leading patients to gamble on black market medications in the hope of saving their lives.
To add to the pile of problems, the Lebanese parliament has failed for its twelfth time to install a President. The country has been without a head of state since October last year.

Pets in Crisis 4YOU 98.5FM Capricorn Community Radio
With one of the highest pet ownership rates in the world, Australians love their furry best friends. However, Australias cost of living crisis has left many pet owners in a difficult and expensive situation, wondering if their beloved pets are worth the costs.
The cost of pet products has jumped by almost 12% in the last couple years. The increased cost of not only pet food, but medications, mandatory shots and, vet bills has forced many to give over their pets to animal rescue organisations. These organisations are now also struggling and encouraging those who can afford it, to adopt a rescue pet. Our cost of living crisis has now left our pets in crisis.

Migrating populations from cities to regional towns 4YOU 98.5FM Capricorn Community Radio
Australian researchers have found that the migration of populations from major capital cities into smaller regional towns does not ease population growth pressures in major metropolitan cities.
As the cost of living skyrockets in major cities, some city dwellers are looking to escape the city for a more affordable and comfortable lifestyle in regional towns.
The new study recommends long-term management strategies to help alleviate potential issues arising from population growth in these regional areas in order to maintain their local regional lifestyle and careful population management.
