This profit means that the major food retailers, such as supermarket duopoly Coles and Woolworths, have a strong incentive to delay reforms that would reduce food waste. Progress has been slow on reforms such as removing 'best before' dates from products that do not need them, and Australia looks unlikely to meet the goal of halving food waste by 2030. Key points: The 2021 National Food Waste Strategy Feasibility Study found Australia wasted 7.6 million tonnes of food a year, equivalent to 152 Sydney Harbour Bridges Households wasted food worth $19.

RICHLAND, Wash.—Scientists have created a method to detect key fat-filled particles known as lipoproteins in the central nervous system, opening a new view into the workings of the brain. Researchers found that the particles in our nervous system, molecular cousins of the well-known HDL, or "good cholesterol" particles in our bloodstream, are much more diverse than previously thought. Researchers detected more than 300 different proteins associated with the particles, far more than the 16 known previously, that fall into at least 10 different families.

MANILA -GCash, the popular digital payments app of Globe Telecom Inc., foiled attempts by suspected hackers to siphon off millions of pesos from its clients after the company detected a pattern of relatively small withdrawals from multiple users sent to only two recipient accounts at another bank late Monday night. The aggregate amount of suspicious transactions was initially estimated at P37 million, sourced from GCash users worth a few thousand pesos each. 'This was averted by GCash which immediately put a hold order on the transfers once the pattern was detected,' a ranking Globe official told the Inquirer, requesting anonymity because an internal probe is still ongoing as of press time.
