הצרות של תעשיית המזון: החום מפחית את תפוקת החלב - וגם רפתות שמצוידות באמצעי קירור לא הצליחו למנוע את הירידה

עד כמה מערכות מזון יצליחו להסתכל לשינוי האקלים?
הרפתות הישראליות הן המתקדמות בעולם, אבל ניתוח של נתוני עתק מראה שאפילו כאן החום יכול להוריד תפוקה יומית בעד 10% ואפילו האימוץ הנרחב של מערכות קירור מוריד את האימפקט במחצית בלבד

מחקר שנערך בישראל חושף: זה האיום הגדול על אספקת החלב העולמית חוקרים ישראלים מצאו כי חום קיצוני מפחית את תפוקת החלב של פרות בכ-10 אחוזים ביום • טכנולוגיות קירור מצליחות לקזז רק כמחצית מהירידה • "אפילו הרפתות המתקדמות ביותר אינן מצליחות להדביק את קצב השפעת שינוי האקלים". פרופ' רם פישמן מהחוג למדיניות ציבורית באוניברסיטת תל אביב

We used 100 million data points from 🇮🇱 to study how humid heat affects milk production.
🥵🐮
Even in the world’s leading dairy industry, losses of up to 10% in extreme days, and cooling reduces them by only half.
Limits to adaptation?
New paper in @ScienceAdvances .
A new @ScienceAdvances study co-authored by EPIC scholar @Eyal_Frank, Claire Palandri, Ayal Kimhi, Yaniv Lavon, Ephraim Ezra, and @RamFishman finds that adaptation only partially offsets dairy losses. Key findings ⤵️🧵1/9 bit.ly/3TmiuvK

We are very grateful to Prof. Ram Fishman to share insights on issues related to groundwater depletion in India, and how pricing, technology adoption and scarcity could help combat the current crisis. If you missed it, the recording is available here: youtube.com/live/ywshyNqXsCE

Join a new global course on water quality - and monitor water conditions in your community.
Looking for university partners to join a growing list.

जैसा कि भारतीय मुंबई आतंकवादी हमले की 15वीं बरसी पर शोक मना रहे हैं, मैं हमास हमले से हुए आघात के बारे में कुछ विचार साझा करना चाहता हूं, जिसे आप जैसे बहुत कम लोग समझ सकते हैं।

The campus debate on the #IsraelHamasWar is also Humanities vs. STEM Econ.
@Columbia faculty issued two open letters, one defending and one condemning students' defense of Hamas. Here are their affiliations.

Baby Kfir has spent more than 10% of his life as a hostage of Hamas.
What an insane notion. Nothing justifies holding a baby.

✡️ students: Stop wasting 💰 on "top" 🇺🇸universities & feeling unsafe.
Study in 🇮🇱 = top notch science & innovation - #Antisemitism - high tuition - BS.
If u care for 🇵🇸 rights, study with real 🇵🇸 students & influence 🇮🇱 constructively, not by criticizing from afar

Na'ama participated in "Hands of Peace": a non-profit empowering American, Israeli and Palestinian youth to become agents of change. This is what #HamasTerrorrists did to her. No visits from the @RedCross #HamasislSIS

Oria is 4 years old, and he was taken hostage by the hamas. There is nothing that can justify taking a kid hostage. Nothing!
Being active for releasing the hostages does not mean that you don't support Palestinian - it means that you support humanity.

Noa is also held hostage by the hamas.
I am trying not to think of it because otherwise, I can't breathe.
We must bring the hostages back.
Only international pressure can help.
Soon, it will be too late.

Abigail, a three-year-old, is alone in Hamas captivity after her parents were murdered.
Dont let a three-year-old child stay another day in Hamas captivity.
Only international pressure can bring her home.
