    Since the 1950s, plastic has become so ubiquitous that it's now used in everything from children’s toys and medical equipment to beauty products and airplanes. And while plastic was once hailed as a miracle product, we now know the damage plastic pollution does to ecosystems, the climate, human health and the economy. Central to ending plastic pollution is the elimination of unnecessary plastic, the redesign of products – including packaging – so they can be more easily reused, repaired and recycled, and switching to non-plastic substitutes that help protect the environment, human health, and our economy.  So, it's time to write a new story and #beatplasticpollution!

    This story contains references to severe mental suffering which some viewers might find distressing. Germany, France and the UK are all currently debating whether medically assisted dying should be permitted, and for whom. But medical assistance in dying in Canada, also known as MAID, is already available for adults with terminal illness, or serious and chronic medical conditions. Canada has been considering for the past year whether to include eligibility for those who suffer solely from a mental illness sparking a heated debate - but this year decided to delay. The BBC follows one man considering applying for MAID, and the impact of the government’s decision. If you are suffering distress or despair and need support, you could speak to a health professional, or an organisation that offers support.

    Israel has carried out further airstrikes on Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip… …with tanks and armoured vehicles positioned near the border engaging in gunfire directed towards Palestinian territory. It comes a day after the Israeli military has assembled several tanks and armoured vehicles on its border with the southern Gaza Strip, in possible preparation for an invasion of the border city of Rafah. The tanks and military vehicles were positioned near Israel's Kerem Shalom crossing on Friday which is directly next to Rafah. Israeli leaders claim that Rafah is Hamas’ last stronghold in Gaza following more than six months of war. #israel #gaza #hamas Subscribe here: http://bit.ly/ODNsubs TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@ondemandnews Twitter: https://twitter.com/ODN Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ODN/ If you wish to purchase any of our clips for commercial use, please visit: http://www.itnproductions.co.uk/news/

    This is the new normal in Haiti. As politicians gather at the country’s National Palace for the swearing in of a new transitional council, sporadic gunfire is heard nearby. There are a few nervous faces, but no-one seems especially concerned. The ceremony was being held to mark a new beginning for the country after the resignation of unpopular Prime Minister Ariel Henry on Thursday, but much of the event had to be held behind closed doors, because the security situation in the capital is so unpredictable. Gangs still control around 80% of Port-au-prince, and have previously launched attacks on the National Palace, police stations and the country’s main airport. One of the key aims of the gangs, led by Jimmy "Barbeque" Cherizier, was to topple Ariel Henry’s government. But Henry’s departure seems unlikely to end the violence, with Cherizier warning the new council members to ‘brace’ themselves earlier in the week. They want to be a part of any new government. Led by Henry’s former finance minister, Michel Patrick Boisvert, the new council will seek to bring order back to the embattled Caribbean nation - but it’s a huge task. Half of the population is struggling to feed itself, according to the world food programme, there is a spiralling economic crisis, and the security services here are desperately short of manpower and equipment. The US has said its helping the Haitian police to regain control. The council has a mandate until early 2026, by which time a new, democratically elected president will need to be installed. But it seems certain that the gangs will try to derail that process, and at the moment, no one knows how to stop them. According to the United Nations, more than 1,500 people were killed and 800 injured in the first three months of 2024. #haiti #portauprince #haitigangs Subscribe here: http://bit.ly/ODNsubs TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@ondemandnews Twitter: https://twitter.com/ODN Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ODN/ If you wish to purchase any of our clips for commercial use, please visit: http://www.itnproductions.co.uk/news/

    Divisions in the United States over gun control will be amplified in the run up to November's presidential election. That has been particularly stark in the state of Tennessee. A year ago a shooting at a school in the state capital Nashville that left three nine-year-olds dead sparked protests in the legislative building. Democrat representative Justin Jones, megaphone in hand, backed the protestors' calls for tighter controls and was then expelled. This week in Tennessee a gun law was passed, but not one that makes it more difficult to carry weapons.

    Two men have been arrested at the pro-Palestine march in London - one for holding a placard with a swastika on it and another for what police said was an alleged racist remark towards counter-protesters. That static counter-demo was organised by pro-Israel group Enough is Enough. There has also been more unrest on university campuses in the USA where protestors have been demonstrating against the Biden administration's support for Israel.
