Researchers at King Saud University have developed new eco-friendly composite materials using waste black tea bags and date palm surface fibers. These materials, bound with polyvinyl acetate resin, exhibit promising thermal insulation and sound absorption properties, potentially competing with synthetic petrochemical-based materials. The study highlights the environmental benefits of utilizing biodegradable waste materials, reducing landfill contributions, and offering a sustainable alternative to fossil-fuel-based products. The composites demonstrate thermal stability up to 291°C and low moisture content, making them suitable for building applications.

Is China poised to dominate the global halal food market?
09 Jan 2025

| Belt and Road Initiative
China is emerging as a significant player in the global halal food market, driven by its large Muslim population and increasing global demand for halal products. Key regions like Ningxia and Xinjiang are favorable for halal businesses due to robust certification systems and government support. Coastal provinces contribute to exports, and the Belt and Road Initiative enhances trade with Muslim-majority nations. However, challenges include a fragmented certification system, which the government is working to standardize. Hong Kong and Macao are also developing as halal hubs, with efforts to simplify certification processes and attract Muslim travelers. China's strategic initiatives position it to capitalize on both domestic and international halal markets.

In Antigua and Barbuda, a legal challenge against colonial-era abortion laws is underway, spearheaded by a doctor and the nonprofit Women Against Rape. The current law permits abortion only if a woman's life is at risk, with severe penalties for other cases. Activists argue the law is unclear and discriminatory, while the government claims past legal reforms have decriminalized abortion. The Evangelical Alliance, representing multiple religious congregations, seeks to join the case, emphasizing the moral aspect of the debate.
