Environmental Management Nevada crews employed hydro cutting to bring down an ancillary water tank dewar at the Test Cell C (TCC) facility in Area 25 of the NNSS. This method allowed workers to mitigate fire risks associated with traditional torch cutting and due to the nature of the dual-lined tank, provided a safe option for reduction. This video is a time lapse of that operation.

Overhaul inquiries to make them more efficient and effective, says House of Lords committee in new report.
Public inquiries are set up to consider incidents of major public concern, such as the Grenfell Tower fire, the Post Office Horizon scandal and the Covid-19 pandemic.
The Statutory Inquiries Committee has been considering the way these inquiries work. In its new report it found inefficiencies leading to delays and unnecessary costs. It calls on the government to conduct a major overhaul, including supporting an independent body responsible for following up on recommendations and ensuring that those accepted by the government are implemented.

From the first day of Russia’s full-scale invasion, the EU has stood by Ukraine, delivering unprecedented political, humanitarian, economic, and military support.
This aid helps Ukraine pay wages, pensions, restore infrastructure, and keep public services running, including hospitals and schools.
The EU is also training and equipping Ukraine’s armed forces, and has set up solidarity lanes to ensure Ukrainian crops reach countries in need, addressing the global food crisis caused by the war.
Committed to Ukraine’s future the EU is providing €50 billion in grants and loans through the Ukraine Facility over the next four years. Tough sanctions have been imposed to hinder Russia’s war efforts, freezing over €210 billion in assets.
The EU stands united and resolute with Ukraine.
This video breaks down the help provided for Ukraine so far and reaffirms the unshakable support for Ukraine, for as long as it is necessary.

The Prime Minister of Denmark, Mette Frederiksen, and World Bank Group President Ajay Banga briefed reporters today (23 Sep) on the Denmark’s support for the World Bank’s Fund for Low-Income Countries.
Prime Minister Frederiksen previously announced at the United Nations’ Summit of the Future, that Denmark has pledged approximately $491.7 million to the World Bank’s fund for the poorest countries, making it a 40 per cent increase over the country’s previous contribution.
Speaking to journalists, Frederiksen reiterated Denmark’s commitment, stating, “you can count on Denmark, both when it comes to the concrete and necessary tasks, but also in supporting the reforms. And I think it’s not only necessary for the countries who are in need of it, but it’s also necessary if we want to stick together as one world.”
World Bank President Ajay Banga echoed the need for action. He said, “we can, frankly, we must, help to chart a course towards that brighter future,” emphasizing that the starting point lies in supporting initiatives like the International Development Association and leveraging the World Bank’s knowledge.

Ghanim Mohammed Al Muftah, United Nations youth representative from Qatar and a political science graduate, said that the decisions made today are not just about policies and strategies. They are about shaping a world where all children can thrive in an inclusive, safe and sustainable future.
“As a person with disability, I have learned that true progress comes not from overcoming personal challenges alone, but from how we, as a society, embrace each other’s differences,” he said.
Sadly, there is no choice for children where wars and conflicts cause unnecessary injuries and life-long disabilities. It is in our hands to stop this global trend of violence, in Gaza and around the world.
“The future belongs to our youth and we must ensure that they are prepared to take on leadership roles,” he said.
————————–
The Summit of the Future (22-23 September 2024) is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to enhance cooperation on critical challenges and address gaps in global governance, reaffirm existing commitments including to the Sustainable Development Goals and the United Nations Charter, and move towards a reinvigorated multilateral system that is better positioned to positively impact people’s lives.
The Summit of the Future is a high-level event, bringing world leaders together to forge a new international consensus on how we deliver a better present and safeguard the future.
Effective global cooperation is increasingly critical to our survival but difficult to achieve in an atmosphere of mistrust, using outdated structures that no longer reflect today’s political and economic realities.
World leaders will convene at the United Nations to adopt the Pact for the Future, which will include a Global Digital Compact and a Declaration on Future Generations as annexes.

LEBANON
The Secretary-General is indeed alarmed by the escalating situation along the Blue Line. He’s very concerned about the large number of civilian casualties being reported by the Lebanese authorities, as well as the thousands of displaced persons, amidst the most intense exchange of fire across the Blue Line since October of last year.
He expresses grave concern for the safety of civilians both in southern Lebanon and in Northern Israel, as well as the UN staff in those areas.
The Secretary-General notes the ongoing efforts by the UN Special Coordinator for Lebanon and the UN Peacekeeping Force in Lebanon to reduce tensions and reiterates the urgent need for de-escalation and that all efforts be devoted to a diplomatic solution. Our Special Coordinator for Lebanon, Jeannine Hennis-Plasschaert, is currently in Israel where she is meeting with Israeli officials as we speak to discuss the latest situation.
Meanwhile the Head of Mission and Force Commander, Lt. Gen. Aroldo Lázaro, has been in contact with both Lebanese and Israeli parties, emphasizing the urgent need for de-escalation. Efforts are ongoing to reduce tensions and halt the shelling.
Their message from both the Special Coordinator and the Head of the UN Peacekeeping Force is the same, which is there is no military solution that will make either side safer. With the wellbeing of civilians on both sides of the Blue Line and the stability of the region at stake, space must be given for diplomatic efforts to succeed.
All involved parties in this conflict must honour their responsibilities to protect civilians and ensure the safety and security of all UN personnel and assets.
The Secretary-General urges all parties to recommit to the full implementation of Security Council resolution 1701 and immediately return to a cessation of hostilities and to restore stability. We do expect a more official statement to be issued at some point.
LEBANON/HUMANITARIAN
On the humanitarian front, our Humanitarian Coordinator for Lebanon Imran Riza, met with Lebanese Government officials, including the Prime Minister, Najib Miqati, and the Minister of Environment, Nasser Yassin. Our humanitarian agencies and others also participated in those discussion.
At these talks, the Lebanese Government announced the activation of an emergency operations centre and also that schools ought to be designated as shelters. The Ministry of Education in Lebanon had announced the closure of all public and private schools for tomorrow. Many people are being displaced from areas impacted by the airstrikes, with heavy traffic reported toward Beirut and Mount Lebanon regions.
Also, on the Israeli side, during the weekend and following an uptick of hostilities, Israel’s Military Home Command announced that schools in northern Israel, which run from Sunday to Friday, have been closed until at least today until 6 p.m. local time.
Humanitarian organizations urgently need $50 million to preposition basic needs – such as food and shelter supplies – for an immediate response for the next two to four weeks in southern Lebanon, Lebanon in general.
Our colleagues at OCHA tell us that, according to the Lebanese Ministry of Public Health, more than 274 people have been killed and at least 700 injured, including women and children, following the continued airstrikes in southern Lebanon.

As the planet risks maintaining a pathway to 3C of warming, with intensifying land degradation and a million animal and plant species at risk of extinction, a coordinated approach is fundamental to maintain momentum on the net-zero, nature-positive transition.
How can actors from the public and private sector move beyond current geoeconomic tensions and take the necessary actions to curb carbon emissions and halt biodiversity loss while ensuring a more inclusive economy?
