High-caffeine energy drinks such as Red Bull will be banned for sale to youths under 16 in England under plans announced by the government on Wednesday.

“By preventing shops from selling these drinks to kids, we’re helping build the foundations for healthier and happier generations to come,” health minister Wes Streeting said in a statement.

Up to a third of 13- to 16-year-olds in England are believed to consume energy drinks — some of which contain more caffeine than two cups of coffee — despite most supermarkets having introduced a voluntary ban, according to the government.

“How can we expect children to do well at school if they have the equivalent of a double espresso in their system on a daily basis?” Streeting said.

“We’re acting on the concerns of parents and teachers and tackling the root causes of poor health and educational attainment head on,” he added.

A 12-week consultation will now gather evidence from experts, the public, and retailers and manufacturers.

Under current rules, any drink with over 150mg of caffeine per litre requires a warning label saying it is not recommended for children.

“Energy drinks might seem harmless, but the sleep, concentration and wellbeing of today’s kids are all being impacted, while high sugar versions damage their teeth and contribute to obesity,” Streeting said.

Indonesian islanders take on Swiss cement group in climate case

A Swiss court on Wednesday weighed whether to hear a landmark climate case pitting residents of a tiny Indonesian island being swallowed by rising sea levels against cement giant Holcim.

The case is part of a wider international movement seeking to assign to major companies responsibility for the climate damage hurting the livelihoods of millions of people, especially in developing countries.

Oil companies have typically been the biggest targets, but climate activists are hoping the suit against Holcim will highlight the role of a lesser-known but highly-polluting industry, which is responsible for around eight percent of carbon dioxide (CO2) emitted into the atmosphere each year.

In the case, four residents of Pari have filed a suit against the world’s largest cement firm, demanding that it provide compensation for the damage wrought by climate change and help fund protection measures on the island like planting mangroves.

Two of the plaintiffs travelled to Switzerland to take part in Wednesday’s hearing at the court in Zug, where Holcim is headquartered, to determine whether or not it will consider the complaint.

The hearing ended after three hours but it remained unclear how quickly the court would render its decision.



– ‘Climate justice’ –



“I’m confident for this step of today’s proceedings,” said Nina Burri, a lawyer for the Swiss Church Aid (HEKS) NGO helping the islanders.

“At core, this case is about climate justice,” she told AFP outside the courthouse.

“It is about the plaintiffs and whether they have to bear the costs that they haven’t caused, or whether the big polluters have to be responsible and liable for the emissions and the damages they cause.”

Before the hearing, Holcim maintained that “the question of who is allowed to emit how much CO2” should be “a matter for the legislature and not a question for a civil court”.

But it said after Wednesday’s hearing that “we await the court’s decision”, insisting that it was “fully committed to reaching net zero by 2050 with sustainability at the core of our strategy”.

Environmentalists allege that Holcim figures among the world’s 100 largest corporate CO2 emitters, and thus bears significant responsibility for climate-related loss and damage.

The case illustrates the new face of the climate fight, as activists increasingly turn to the courts amid frustration over the slowness and even retreat of states in the fight against global warming.

If accepted, it could be a milestone for plaintiffs from developing countries who take on industrial giants.



– ‘Inspirational’ –



“I hope the case will become inspirational… for climate victims” around the world, plaintiff Asmania told reporters in Switzerland last week.

Environmentalists have said 11 percent of the 42-hectare (104-acre) island of Pari has already disappeared in recent years, and it could be completely under water by 2050 due to rising sea levels.

The islanders say saltwater floods have surged in scale and frequency, battering homes and damaging livelihoods.

Asmania, a 42-year-old mother-of-three, who like many Indonesians goes by one name, has already lost her seaweed farm due to flooding, which has also blighted her fish farm, sweeping in dirt and oil that kill off the newborns.

This year, she began with 500 small fry, “and there are only nine left”, she said, adding that income “is zero”.

The case is the first filed by Indonesians against a foreign company for climate-related damage, and the first instance of a Swiss firm being sued for its alleged role in such damage.

The four plaintiffs in the case are seeking 3,600 Swiss francs ($4,500) each from Holcim for damages and for protection measures such as planting mangroves and constructing breakwater barriers.

HEKS stressed that the amount was only equivalent to 0.42 percent of the actual costs — in line with estimates that Holcim is responsible for 0.42 percent of global industrial CO2 emissions since 1750.

In addition, the plaintiffs are demanding a 43 percent reduction in Holcim’s greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 and a 69 percent reduction by 2040.
Treat carbon storage like ‘scarce resource’: scientists

The amount of carbon dioxide that can be stored underground is vastly overestimated, new research said Wednesday, challenging assumptions about the “limitless” potential this approach holds to reducing global warming.

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is complex and costly, and critics say it cannot meet the urgent need to slash planet-heating emissions and meet the world’s climate targets.

One approach works by avoiding emissions at a polluting source — such as a factory smokestack. Another, known as direct air capture, pulls CO2 from the atmosphere.

But both require the CO2 captured to be injected into rock and locked away underground for centuries or millennia in deep geologic formations.

At present, carbon capture plays a vanishingly small part in addressing the climate crisis. But scientists and policymakers consider it a necessary tool to help bring future warming down to safer levels.

However, in a new paper published in the prestigious journal Nature, a team of international scientists has sharply revised down the global capacity for safely and practically storing carbon underground.

They estimated a global storage limit of around 1,460 billion tonnes of CO2 — nearly 10 times below scientific and industry assumptions.

This “reality check” should better inform decision-makers considering carbon capture in their long-term climate policies, the study’s senior author, Joeri Rogelj, told AFP.

“This is a study that helps us understand — and actually really corrects — the working assumption of how much carbon, or CCS capacity, would be available if one takes a practical and a prudent approach,” said Rogelj, an expert in carbon capture from Imperial College London.



– ‘Scarce resource’ –



To reach this revised figure, the team — led by the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis — took existing assumptions about carbon storage and ruled out locations deemed risky or economically unviable.

This included, for example, injecting CO2 below major civilian centres, into zones of known seismic activity, or many hundreds of metres beneath the oceans.

The findings underscored that carbon storage should be treated as “a scarce resource that needs to be deployed strategically to maximise climate benefits rather than… a limitless commodity”, the study said.

This storage limit could be breached by 2200, the authors said, noting they could not account for possible advances in carbon capture, or other technologies, in future.

Fully exhausting this capacity could lower global temperatures by 0.7C — but that should be reserved for future generations who may need it most, the authors said.

The IPCC, the UN’s expert scientific panel on climate change, says carbon capture is one option for reducing emissions, including in heavy polluting sectors like cement and steel.

But it remains infinitesimal: Rogelj said the amount of carbon captured every year at present amounted to approximately one-thousandth of global annual CO2 emissions.
88 postal operators suspend services to US over tariffs: UN

Robin MILLARD

Postal traffic to the United States plunged more than 80 percent following Washington’s imposition of new tariffs, with 88 operators worldwide fully or partially suspending services, the Universal Postal Union said Saturday.

The UPU, the United Nations’ postal cooperation agency, is working on “the rapid development of a new technical solution that will help get mail moving to the United States again”, its director general Masahiko Metoki said in a statement.

US President Donald Trump’s administration announced in late July that it was abolishing a tax exemption on small packages entering the United States from August 29.

The move sparked a flurry of announcements from postal services, including in Australia, Britain, France, Germany, India, Italy and Japan, that most US-bound packages would no longer be accepted.

The UPU said data exchanged between postal operators via its systems showed that traffic to the United States was down 81 percent on August 29, compared to a week earlier.

“Furthermore, 88 postal operators informed the UPU they have suspended some or all postal services to the US until a solution is implemented,” it said.

These included operators in 78 UN member states — including two in Bosnia and Herzegovina — and in nine other territories including Macau and the Cook Islands.

– New system upcoming –

The US changes places the burden of customs duty collection and remittance on transport carriers or “qualified parties” approved by the US Customs and Border Protection agency.

“Carriers, such as airlines, signalled they were unwilling or unable to bear this responsibility,” while postal operators had not yet established links to those approved parties, “causing major operational disruptions”, said the UPU.

The UN agency said it was working on a “Delivered Duty Paid” solution which will soon be integrated into its customs declaration platform.

It enables post operators “to calculate and collect the required duties from customers at origin”, the agency said.

In the meantime, the UPU said that, as of Friday, postal operators could access a calculator via a software interface that can be plugged into their retail and counter systems.

– Letter sent –


Metoki has written to US Secretary of State Marco Rubio to convey member countries’ concerns surrounding the upheaval.

UPU figures show that over the past 12 months, inbound traffic to the United States, from all categories of mail, comprised 15 percent of global postal traffic.

Of that, 44 percent came from Europe, 30 percent from Asia, and 26 percent from the rest of the world.

The majority was likely to be small packages — the international mail product most often used for e-commerce goods, said the UPU.

Based in the Swiss capital Bern, the UPU was established in 1874 and counts 192 member states. It sets the rules for international mail exchanges and makes recommendations to improve services.

Turkey opposition calls extraordinary congress for Sept 21

Fulya OZERKAN

Turkey’s main opposition party has announced it will hold an extraordinary congress on September 21 after a court ousted its Istanbul leadership on graft allegations, party officials said on Saturday.

The decision comes amid growing political pressure on the Republican People’s Party (CHP) after a court this week annulled the outcome of its Istanbul provincial congress in October 2023, throwing out its leader Ozgur Celik and 195 others.

More than 900 CHP delegates on Friday submitted a petition to a local election board in the capital Ankara to authorise the congress, a party source told AFP.

The congress is expected to shape the party’s strategy as it faces legal uncertainty.

CHP leader Ozgur Ozel described the move as “entirely a technical and legal manouevre” in case a court delivers a similar verdict to oust the overall party leadership in a hearing on September 15.

“Because, as you know, anything is within the realm of possibility,” he said.

The CHP, the largest opposition force in the Turkish parliament, won a huge victory over President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s AKP in the 2024 local elections.

Since then, the party has become a target of a wave of arrests and legal cases that culminated in March with the jailing of Istanbul’s popular and powerful mayor Ekrem Imamoglu on corruption allegations that he denies.

The arrest and jailing of Imamoglu, seen as a key rival to Erdogan, sparked street protests unprecedented in a decade.

Authorities have clamped down on demonstrations detaining nearly 2,000 people including students and journalists — most of whom were later released.

On Tuesday, the court ousted the CHP Istanbul leader and scores of party delegates and named a five-man team to replace them in a move that saw the stock market plunge 5.5 percent.

The CHP has filed an appeal against the ruling.

Political analyst Berk Esen told AFP the move was a “rehearsal” for the bigger case against the party’s national leadership seeking to hobble it as an opposition force.



-‘CHP stands tall’-



An almost identical lawsuit is hanging over its national leadership in a closely-watched case that will resume in Ankara on September 15.

A petition of over 900 party delegates demanding an extraordinary congress raised within just a day and a half comes against the possibility of a similar court ruling, observers say.

CHP leader Ozel said should an Ankara court deliver a ruling that affects the party’s leadership, and appoint a trustee to replace him, “that trustee, I must point out with all due respect, would last no more than six days.”

Because, he added, six days later, the party “naturally and inevitably, reinstates its elected leader” at the congress.

Gul Ciftci, a CHP deputy leader responsible for election and legal affairs, said the extraordinary congress “will not only determine the future of our party but will also reaffirm faith in pluralism, diversity, and democratic politics in Turkey,” in a comment on X on Friday.

She hailed the decision for the congress, made with the delegates’ will, as “the strongest proof that the CHP stands tall against all attempts at intervention by the government”.

The party source told AFP that to boost the chances of the request for an extraordinary congress being accepted, signatures were not collected from the 196 Istanbul delegates who were suspended by the court order.



Vatican receives first LGBTQ pilgrimage

Clément MELKI

In a first for the Vatican, more than a thousand LGBTQ Catholics and their supporters are this weekend holding a pilgrimage, in what they are promoting as an important sign of diversity in the Church.

The gathering, of some 1,400 people from around 20 countries, was part of the Catholic Church’s Jubilee holy year. It was organised by La Tenda di Gionata (The Tent of Jonathon), an Italian association lobbying for greater inclusivity among the faithful.

Those taking part were not to have a private audience with Pope Leo XIV.

Even though LGBTQ groups have gone to the Vatican before, this is the first time such a pilgrimage has featured on the official Jubilee programme.

Yveline Behets, a 68-year-old transgender woman from Brussels, walked 130 kilometres (80 miles) with another 30 LGBTQ people along part of the ancient Via Francigena pilgrimage route to get to Rome.

She said she expected more “plurality” from the Church after experiencing difficulties with other Catholics, among whom, she said, she did “not always feel acknowledged”.

“One should not misuse the word ‘welcome’. We are not just some outsiders who are are welcomed sometimes, or more regularly — we are part of the same family,” she said, wearing a t-shirt with the rainbow of the LGBTQ community.

– Into the Vatican –


Just as millions of other pilgrims have done, those taking part in the LGBTQ pilgrimage were on Saturday to walk up the main road to the Vatican to step through the Holy Door into Saint Peter’s basilica.

Saturday morning, hundreds of them took part in a mass in the Church of the Gesu, in the centre of Rome. The evening before they had held a prayer vigil.

Hugo, a 35-year-old from Quebec in Canada who declined to give his last name, said he believed the LGBTQ pilgrimage was “a really important signal for us to feel more included”.

He said he hoped it would “let people who are on the fence to allow themselves to be more welcoming towards homosexuals in the Church”.

But, in a religious institution that for two millennia has viewed homosexual acts as going against its tenet of procreative sex and gay couples “intrinsically disordered”, the road to acceptance is still long.

“There are fears and a sort of misunderstanding when it comes to the life that homosexuals lead,” Hugo said. “If everybody got to know everyone else, I think a lot of barriers would come down.”

Currently, though, he said “a lot of obstacles remain”, especially for couples who wanted the Church’s blessing for same-sex marriages.

Pope Francis, who died in April, had sought to make the Catholic Church open to all, and he made many overtures to the LGBTQ community — without changing the doctrine.

His 2023 decision to allow priests to bless same-sex couples triggered fierce opposition from conservative branches of the Church, particularly in Africa.

– ‘Needs to change’ –

His successor Pope Leo has said that marriage is a union between a man and a women, but he will not change Francis’s decision.

Beatrice Sarti, an Italian accompanying her gay son on the weekend pilgrimage, said there “is still a long way to go”, starting with shifting mindsets among Catholics.

“Many of our children no longer go to church… because they are made to feel that they are wrong. That absolutely needs to change,” said the 60-year-old from Bologna, who is a member of La Tenda di Gionata.

“The first thing to do is train educators, the seminarians, the priests and the bishops, starting at grassroots,” she said, while admitting “it is a very long process”.



Eiffel Tower to honour 72 women scholars to ensure gender parity

Gustave Eiffel, who designed France’s world-famous monument, had the names of 72 scholars inscribed on the base of the tower in golden letters. All of them men.

More than 130 years later, Paris authorities are seeking to right a historic wrong by adding the names of 72 illustrious women.

“The aim is to highlight the historical contribution of women to science and technology”, said an expert commission in charge of the project, which presented its conclusions to Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo on Friday.

The commission said such a tribute would remedy the so-called “Matilda effect”, the term coined by American historian Margaret Rossiter in 1993 to describe the systematic suppression of women’s contributions to scientific progress, after US rights activist Matilda Joslyn Gage.

The commission is chaired by astrophysicist Isabelle Vauglin, vice-president of the Femmes & Sciences association, and Jean-Francois Martins, the head of the tower’s operating company.

When France’s iconic monument was built in 1889, Eiffel had the names of 72 of France’s greatest scholars inscribed on the tower’s first floor in golden capital letters 60 centimetres high.

The scientists, who lived and worked between 1789 and 1889, include the artist and chemist Louis Daguerre, who invented the daguerreotype, the physicist Andre-Marie Ampere and the astronomer Francois Arago.

A list of women’s names will be proposed before the end of the year to Hidalgo, who will validate the final list.

The commission wants to limit the choice to “distinguished female experts who lived between 1789 and the present day” and who are now deceased and mainly of French nationality.

To ensure gender parity, members of the commission propose to place the women’s names above the existing frieze with the names of the men.

The Eiffel Tower is owned by the city of Paris.

One of the world’s most visited monuments, it attracts around seven million people every year, around three-quarters of them from abroad.

On Monday, Education Minister Elisabeth Borne said France should open a debate on the inscription above the Pantheon in Paris to better reflect the contributions of the women laid to rest there.
Trump rebrands Department of Defense as ‘Department of War’

President Donald Trump is changing the name of the Department of Defense to the Department of War, the White House announced Thursday, insisting the rebrand will project a more powerful image.

While the department’s official name is set in law, Trump in an executive order is authorizing use of the new label as a “secondary title” by his administration, a White House document said.

Defense officials are permitted to use to use “secondary titles such as ‘Secretary of War,’…in official correspondence, public communications, ceremonial contexts, and non-statutory documents within the executive branch,” according to the document.

It was not immediately clear when Trump planned to sign the order, but his public schedule for Friday said he would be signing executive orders in the afternoon as well as making an announcement in the Oval Office.

The president, a marketing-savvy real estate developer, has repeatedly said in recent weeks that he was mulling such a change.

Late last month, the 79-year-old Republican claimed the Defense Department’s title was too “defensive.”

The Department of War “was the name when we won World War I, we won World War II, we won everything,” he told reporters on August 25.

According to the White House document, the name change “conveys a stronger message of readiness and resolve.”

Established in the early days of US independence, the Department of War historically oversaw American land forces.

A government reorganization after World War II brought it along with the US Navy and Air Force under the unified National Military Establishment, which in 1949 was retitled to the Department of Defense.

“Restoring the name ‘Department of War’ will sharpen the focus of this Department on our national interest and signal to adversaries America’s readiness to wage war to secure its interests,” the White House document said.

The move is the latest overhaul at the Pentagon since Trump took office in January and appointed former Fox News host Pete Hegseth to lead the sprawling department.

Hegseth, a combat veteran, has repeatedly touted the push to restore a “warrior ethos” in the department, and has lambasted prior administrations for policies he and Trump have derided as “woke.”

Hegseth notably has sought to expel transgender troops from the military and change the names of bases that honored Confederate troops back to their original titles, after they were renamed under former president Joe Biden.

While Trump’s order could potentially be rescinded by a future president, it “instructs the Secretary of War to recommend actions, to include legislative and executive actions, required to permanently rename” the department, the White House document said.

'Marketing gimmick': Military expert slams Trump's 'faux alpha male' stunt

MSNBC national security analyst John Brennan called President Donald Trump’s recent maneuvers to parade troops through US cities and the renaming of the Department of Defense to the “Department of War” as the flexing of personal imaginary strength.

“This sort of faux alpha male strongman image and marketing that Donald Trump is involved in really just sends a wrong signal — speaking to the ‘Department of War’ particularly — with things that have been going on recently we don't want to send a signal to our friends and allies around the globe that we are committed to a very aggressive posture, and we're going to be engaging in [inane] war.”

Brennen added that the image the U.S. has traditionally presented was one of strength with restraint.

“We should do everything possible to make sure we keep this country strong and safe and secure and also work closely with our allies and partners around the world,” Brennen said, adding that he resented Trump’s “marketing gimmick” tearing down the nation’s hard-won image.

“Donald Trump has been involved in for so many years these branding efforts to try to show that he is a strong man. It really, hopefully is not going to do anything at all to the ethos, the real ethos of the Department of Defense, which is, again, to serve their country valiantly, nobly and also fully consistent with us laws.”

VoteVets Senior Adviser Max Rose reminded MSNBC that the nation “just had an atrocious jobs report while the president's spending his time giving the Secretary of Defense a new nickname.”

"So now it's the Department of War, and they have service members deployed in cities throughout the United States of America, so who exactly are we at war with?” Rose said. “But there's an underlying cultural and intellectual motivation behind this nickname change and that is this belief that we have not had a respectable military since World War II. This is so disrespectful to every living veteran who they very clearly now think are actually suckers and losers.”

President Donald Trump ramped up his threats to enact a federal takeover of Chicago, Illinois on Saturday after sharing an image on social media depicting an AI-generated version of himself standing in front the city’s skyline, with military helicopters flying overhead and flames burning in the background.

The image included the phrase ‘Chipocalypse Now,” a reference to the 1979 war film “Apocalypse Now,” and a quote that reads “I love the smell of deportations in the morning,” another reference to one of the film’s most notable lines: “I love the smell of napalm in the morning.”

“Chicago about to find out why it’s called the Department of WAR,” another line plastered on the image reads.

Trump has ramped up threats to deploy federal officers to Chicago in recent weeks, having declared the city as the “worst and most dangerous city in the world, by far,” and that a federal takeover could “solve the crime problem fast.” The threats come in the wake of Trump’s ongoing takeover of Washington, D.C., which has seen thousands of federal officers and National Guard members, some armed with long rifles, patrolling the city’s streets.Democratic Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker has pushed back against Trump’s threats, labeling the president as a “wannabe dictator
,” and pledging to oppose any deployment of federal officers to his state’s capital.

President Donald Trump triggered outrage on Friday during a signing of his executive order to rebrand the Department of Defense to the "Department of War," when he suggested the United States only loses wars due to "woke" cultural values

"We should have won every war," said Trump. "We could have won every war, but we really chose to be a very politically correct—wokey. We never wanted to win."

Commenters on social media tore into the president, with many noting that he used a questionable medical diagnosis to get out of serving in Vietnam, one of the wars America did actually lose

"This is, even for him, amazingly stupid and an insult to the thousands who died in Korea and Vietnam and the other conflicts we were too 'wokey' to win,"
wrote retired Naval War College professor Tom Nichols. "But then, can't expect any better from a man who thinks American war dead are 'suckers' and 'losers.'"

"Remember when he dodged the draft because of ... bone spurs?" wrote former MSNBC host and Zeteo News founder Mehdi Hasan.

"Yeah, Vietnam, a war famously lost because we were Too Woke," wrote American Immigration Council senior fellow Aaron Reichlin-Melnick.

"President who avoided combat because of 'bone spurs' and calls those who served suckers and losers has thoughts about war," wrote Huffington Post political correspondent S.V. Dáte.

"He would have called ending slavery woke," wrote Bridgeport, Pennsylvania, city councilman Tony Heyl.

"Not only is this an asinine thing to say, it’s also insulting. Nothing like an armchair quarterback, eh?" wrote the official account for The Seneca Project.


"I would love to hear what was 'wokey' to Trump about the loss in the Vietnam War. Too few bone spurs?" wrote University of North Georgia rhetoric professor Matthew Boedy
