Priorities: Biden Admin to Eliminate Plastic Cutlery in Move to Save the Planet
Breitbart | 08/06/2024 | Paul Bois

The Biden administration will reportedly phase out the use of plastic cutlery in all federal departments to combat “climate change.”

The administration announced the plan in July as part of its “Mobilizing Federal Action on Plastic Pollution: Progress, Principles, and Priorities,” per the New York Post.

“The President is committed to taking ambitious actions… to end plastic pollution and is calling upon the global community to do the same, with the goal to reduce the global production and consumption of virgin plastics,” the White House said.

The White House said that it will eliminate single-use plastics like “plastic and polystyrene food and beverage containers, bottles, straws, cups, cutlery and disposable plastic bags.” The order came after a previous executive order reducing the sale of single-use plastics on public lands.

“[T]he Biden-Harris Administration is announcing a new goal to phase out federal procurement of single-use plastics from food service operations, events, and packaging by 2027, and from all federal operations by 2035,” the White House said. “Meeting the new goal… will further agencies’ obligations under the [previous] Executive Order.”

Not Having Enough Sex May Have Deadly Consequences
IFL Science | July 29, 2024 | Holly Large

Women who have sex less than once a week may be more likely to die early than those who engage in more regular intercourse, according to the results of a new study. While this same impact was not observed in men, the researchers did note that more frequent sex reduces the chances of an early grave in both men and women with depression.

“Sexual activity is important for overall cardiovascular health possibly due to reduction of heart rate variability and blood flow increase,” write the authors. “Using findings from our study, we can infer that sexual activity, broadly defined, may ameliorate loss of function that can occur with age and the progression of disease,” they add.

Co-author of the study: one Dr. Strangelove.
