☆ Israeli economists urge Netanyahu to re-open the nation's budget to account for the war
  + stars: | 2023-10-30 | by ( Jason Gewirtz | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +2 min
Hundreds of influential Israeli economists are warning the government that it must make big economic changes quickly, including re-opening the country's budget, as the war with Hamas approaches its fourth week. The letter released Monday by the Israeli Economists' Forum calls on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Minister of Finance Bezalel Smotrich "to wake up and start responding to the tough challenges that the Israeli economy faces." More than 200,000 Israelis, mostly from the south, have been forced to relocate due to the war with Hamas. In turn, the economists want Israel to make an unprecedented move to reopen the 2024 budget, which was passed in May, after a bitter political fight. It started after the deadliest terrorist attack in Israel's history Oct. 7, when Hamas militants tore through Israel's southern barrier killing 1,400 people and taking more than 200 hostages.

☆ Elon Musk asked Twitter users whether he should stay on as CEO, but he'd already made up his mind to go
  + stars: | 2022-12-20 | by ( Rebecca Knight | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +5 min
Elon Musk ran a poll asking Twitter users if he should step down as CEO and the majority said yes. Musk said that he'd abide by the results of the poll, though he's so far not commented on the outcome. By posing the stay-or-go question in an online poll, Musk is able to to portray himself as a magnanimous chief who listens to his constituents. In resigning his post by virtue of a vote, Musk can boost his personal wealth and return to his beloved car company under the guise of democratic leadership. Shares of Tesla rose on Monday after the Twitter poll results, though they ended the day largely unchanged, trading at just below $150.

The plan would show how the food industry and farming can align with the world's goal of capping global warming at 1.5 degrees Celsius, Food and Agriculture Organization Deputy Director Zitouni Ould-Dada said. More than forty investors managing a combined $18 trillion urged the FAO in June to create a plan to curb emissions in the sector, often overlooked in global warming debates yet one of the biggest sources of climate-damaging emissions. "There has never been this much attention to food and agriculture anytime before. Livestock accounts for nearly a third of the global methane emissions linked to human activity, released in the form of cattle burps, manure and the cultivation of feed crops.
