Michel Bougeard has been volunteering as an Honorary Police Officer for 40 years and says: "If people don't sign up the consequences are that it will die and cost the island a fortune "You'll lose the parish hall enquiry system which is the jewel in our crown to a great degree because we can keep people out of court by dealing with them in the parish hall adds: "People now want to have as many events as possible but what a lot of them do not realise is the fact that if the Honorary Police cannot attend some of these events will not happen." In response to worries over whether the Battle of Flowers can go ahead in its current form if there are not enough honorary officers available you cannot just let floats go up by themselves at 5am." Battle of Flowers is safe in the short term but it all depends on events having more volunteers The issue is about paid events which are heavily reliant on unpaid police officers giving up their time those events could become heavily scaled back if they do not get people signing up One clear thing is the camaraderie and the pride that is shared by every single member of the Honorary Police Want a quick and expert briefing on the biggest news stories Listen to our latest podcasts to find out What You Need To Know..

In the town of Postmasburg in Northern Cape Province of South Africa where there are abundant sunshine and vast land the Chinese-built 100-megawatt (MW) Redstone Concentrated Solar Thermal Power (CSP) Project resembles a giant sunflower known as South Africa's largest renewable energy project was successfully connected to the country's power grid in mid-September this year marking the beginning of a crucial phase in the construction of the project the project is expected to contribute approximately 480 gigawatt-hours (GWh) of clean electricity to South Africa's power grid annually meeting the electricity needs of over 200,000 households Photo shows the Chinese-built 100 MW Redstone Concentrated Solar Thermal Power Project in Northern Cape Province of South Africa (Photo provided by

green and low-carbon transformation hold significant importance for promoting both their own and global sustainable development As the global challenges brought about by climate change intensify developing countries have become the principal victims of climate change issues The BRICS countries have always been concerned about the common future of humanity and have emerged as a crucial force in addressing climate change The BRICS countries have initiated the BRICS cooperation to jointly tackle the challenges posed by climate change At the 14th BRICS Trade Ministers Meeting held in July this year relevant parties adopted the Joint Communique of the 14th BRICS Trade Ministers Meeting and the "BRICS Statement on Environmental and Climate-related Trade Measures" emphasizing opposition

Loads already lifted with the LR 1600/2-W on the Wobben Enercon job in Brazil include a 65 tonne rotor star in a single hoist to a height of 97 metres Brazilian crane rental company I.V. Guindastes has added another Liebherr LR 1600/2-W crawler crane to its fleet. It is a 600 tonne capacity narrow track model for erecting wind turbines. The used machine, built in 2012, was purchased from Liebherr in Ehingen, Germany. An 18 month wind farm contract in Brazil is its first job. It is working for Wobben Enercon in João Camara in the Brazilian state of Rio Grande do Norte. Commenting on his choice Igor Boff, I.V. Guindastes co-owner, said, “In addition to the price, the fast availability is one of the main arguments for buying used cranes as far as we are concerned.” Earlier in 2017 I.V. Guindastes bought a pair of used Liebherr LTM 1100-4.2 wheeled mobile cranes. Boff continued, “The Liebherr crawler crane has a very functional design and is economical to use. Its track width of just 5.8 metres makes it ideal for travelling on narrow tracks in wind farms and it also delivers very good lifting capacity values.” The I.V. Guindastes fleet now stands at 25 units, 18 of which are Liebherrs, the manufacturer said. There are already two more of the narrow track model so additional equipment can be shared between the three machines, Boff said. The main goal of Tropical Medicine Institute is to consolidate, in infectious diseases, the community service, teaching and research. The strategic goal is the education of highly qualified human resources in science and technology in the medical area and the generation of a center for the diagnosis, treatment and research, especially in the area of the diseases neglected by centers of more advanced regions. Those diseases are also prevalent in Africa and Asia. One of the heads of Jersey's Honorary Police is calling on the Government to improve its outdated road traffic legislation following two serious collisions between cars and e-scooters says the law should be updated to reflect the changing transport options He explains: "There's no doubt it is frustrating There are a lot of vehicles on the road at the moment which were not thought of in 1948 when the Road Traffic Law was enacted so we need to make sure it keeps pace with these new vehicles There is currently no specific law preventing people from using e-scooters on roads or public land in Jersey It is only illegal because they are classed as motorised vehicles so riders need a licence and insurance which they cannot get E-scooters can be ridden on private land with permission but they should not be able to go faster than 15mph E-scooters have become more popular in recent years with the UK Government approving 30 public hire trials over there - although riding privately owned e-scooters on roads is still illegal the island's Infrastructure Minister says they will look at the current legislation Deputy Andy Jehan explains: "We've had a number of pieces of correspondence from States Members and the public I've spoken to ministers and we're going to discuss it."
