Reducing energy consumption and waste is of growing importance to the EU. Energy efficiency measures are recognised as a means of not only achieving a sustainable energy supply, cutting greenhouse gas emissions, improving security of supply and reducing import bills, but also of promoting European competitiveness. EU legislation on energy efficiency has evolved significantly over the past 15 years. In 2018, EU leaders set a 32.5% target for reducing EU annual energy consumption by 2030. In March 2023, they agreed on EU primary and final energy consumption reduction targets of 38% and 40.5% respectively by 2030. Energy efficiency is therefore a strategic priority of the Energy Union, which is built on the ‘energy efficiency first’ principle. The future policy framework for the 2030 and post-2030 period is under discussion. Source : © European Union, 2023 - EP

Common rules have been drawn up to ensure that passengers receive at least a minimum level of assistance in the event of serious delays to or cancellation of their journey, irrespective of the mode of transport used, and, in particular, to protect more vulnerable travellers. The rules also provide for compensation schemes. A wide range of derogations may be granted for rail and road transport services, however, and court actions challenging the application of the rules are still common.

Former Miss Bikini Ireland and First Dates star Judy Fitzgerald, from Co Limerick, has died unexpectedly at the age of 32, prompting an outpouring of tributes.

A man landed himself in hospital on Monday (May 29) night after getting into a brawl with a fellow diner at a coffee shop at Block 107 Hougang Avenue 1.  The reason? He was allegedly unhappy about a beer lady's 'attitude' towards him, reported Shin Min Daily News.  Recounting the incident to the Chinese daily, an employee at the drink stall, surnamed Guo, said she saw the man seated at one of the tables drinking and chatting with another man.  A beer lady then approached him with a few bottles of beer.  «I heard the uncle angrily shouting that he didn't order any beer, and he asked why [the beer lady] spoke to him so loudly,» said Guo.  The man then got into an argument with his counterpart.  She also recalled the agitated man walking around the coffee shop with a beer bottle in hand, while other patrons tried to placate him.  «He was standing at the drink stall asking me for her manager's number, saying he wanted to complain about her,» Guo said. 

SINGAPORE - Close to 30 pigeons, many of them dead or unconscious, were found on the grass patch and in common areas between Block 438 and Block 436 in Yishun Avenue 11 last Monday (May 29) evening. A Yishun resident, who wanted to be known only as Ms Aishah, said some of the pigeons were struggling, flapping their wings while on the ground. Ms Aishah, 28, also spotted some children playing near the area at around 6pm that day, as she was on her way to pick up her younger brother from school. The pigeons were still there when she went back to check four hours later at 10pm. “This is my first time seeing dead pigeons around the area,” said Ms Aishah. She contacted the Animal Concerns Research and Education Society (Acres), who arrived at the scene within the hour. “It’s very sad and inhumane to see not just a few, but about 20 dead birds lying around where people are walking around, some with their pets, and with cats and children around. It’s not safe,” said Ms Aishah, who is an administrative executive. “Some of the kids that were playing around where the birds were found were very young, maybe less than four.”

Parents are protective of their children but when one Singapore Zoo visitor voiced his concerns online, he sparked a debate on whether he was just blowing matters out of proportion. Taking to TikTok last Sunday (May 28), Pavel Semenov, 40, shared about a negative experience he had at the zoo. The minute-long video first showed a staff scanning tickets to open a gate for the man's family. While Semenov was pushing a twin stroller carrying his three children, the gate's doors suddenly swung inwards and brushed one of his daughter's outstretched arms. Questioning if «this is normal», the Russian national blamed the zoo for «hiring staff with no basic skills». «How can I keep my children safe from what people do?» he asked. The video has since garnered over 350,000 views on TikTok. In the comments section, several netizens said that Semenov was overreacting over the incident.
