The US$100 million fund will support small and medium-sized businesses, in the areas of water, agriculture, healthcare, sanitation, and clean energy. This initiative is part of a larger US$5 billion investment that the DFC plans to mobilize in Morocco and other North African countries. Additionally, a new Prosper Africa office will be based in Morocco’s capital city of Rabat, to promote trade between the US and Africa. The Moroccan people are a Shining World Leadership Award for Peace laureate. The United States is a recipient of four Shining World Leadership Awards for Compassion, three Shining World Leadership Awards for Good Governance, seven Shining World Leadership Awards for Promoting Healthy Living, and Shining World Leadership Awards for Justice, Protection, and Environmental Protection; and a laureate of 23 Shining World Leadership Awards for Compassion, three Shining World Leadership Awards for Protection, two Shining World Leadership Awards for Loving Care, a Shining World Peace Leader Award, Shining World Caring Leadership Award, and Shining World Super Loving Care Leadership Award. Congratulations, DFC, SEAF and Morocco, for this new wave of financial support. May Allah bless the bright entrepreneurs with great success and the fine Moroccan people with a prosperous future.
Five asteroids pass by Earth causing alarm.
The United States National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is keeping track of the five asteroids that passed by Earth in early January of this year. While the space rocks were far enough away to avoid impact this time, their future orbits may pose a potential hazard and are being constantly monitored by NASA. Two of the largest asteroids were almost the size of the Eiffel Tower at 220 and 270 meters, respectively. Another one was 62 meters, half the height of the Great Pyramid of Giza, and passed by at a distance of 3.5 million kilometers. Meanwhile, a 32-meter rock passed the Earth at a distance of only 842,000 kilometers. We are grateful to the Divine for protecting our planet thus far . as we also thank scientists for their vigilance. May humans embrace a benevolent lifestyle that attracts only good and acts as a blessed shield for our world.
Up next, large project starts to map Australia’s Great Barrier Reef. We’ll just take a little time to thank the athletic trainers, who are health care professionals helping to prevent and treat injuries not only in sports, but also in the performing arts, law enforcement, and factories, etc. We will return with more assuring news after these messages here on Supreme Master Television.
Hooray, treasured friends, it’s me, Kinsley the vegan Kinkajou! You too can be a gorgeous and radiant environmental hero. Just be vegan! I have a handy tip for you today. Did you know that when you flush the toilet, tiny, airborne droplets, that may contain bacteria, spread into the air above the toilet seat? These pathogens can stay in the air for a while and fall on surfaces where they can live for weeks. Therefore, it is a good idea to close the toilet lid when you flush. Also, it’s important that you clean your toilet and the surrounding areas regularly, so you can maintain a more hygienic bathroom for you and your family. Thank you for watching and love you for Being Veg and Going Green 2 Save the Planet thus save the world! Now, the weather around the globe.
Hundreds of people to help map Australia’s Great Barrier Reef.
Australian conservation group Citizens of the Great Barrier Reef has launched a project that will allow anyone with a camera to take pictures of the reef, which will immediately be uploaded and transferred to the University of Queensland marine research team. It is hoped that by discovering where the more and less healthy regions are, the conservationists can help to bring the healthy coral larvae to areas in need, during the re-spawning event that will occur later in the year. A successful 2019 pilot program using this technology was extended in October 2020 to identify 100 healthy reefs. Currently less than a tenth of the reef has been surveyed, but it is estimated that around half of it has sadly been bleached due to warming waters. Way to go, Citizens of the Great Barrier Reef and all involved. May your caring and diligent efforts lead to abundant coral regrowth, so that our Divine oceans and planet may regain their health.
China shifts millions of households away from coal this winter.
China’s Ecology and Environment Ministry has been working to convert over seven million homes around the large cities of Beijing and Tianjin, plus those in four provinces to greener energy sources such as natural gas or electricity to power their heating systems. For households in rural regions, government subsidies will be provided to set up the needed structures. The switch will help reduce air pollution associated with coal production. The project involves collaborating with many agencies to ensure there is enough natural gas supply for all homes using it, during the heating season. China is a Shining World Leadership Award for Wise Governance recipient and a laureate of six Shining World Leadership Awards for Compassion, and Shining World Leadership Awards for Protection, Environmental Protection, Wildlife-Protection, and Compassionate Protection. Thank you, China and partnering agencies, for helping millions go coal-free this winter. May Heaven’s guidance elevate all to create a cleaner and healthier world.
Pope Francis changes church law to favor women’s participation.
His Holiness Pope Francis has formalized women’s role in the Catholic church as lectors who read scriptures and eucharistic ministers who serve on the altar. Although these roles were already being filled by women in many places, with the latest move, Pope Francis has integrated the changes into church law, stating that he wants to increase recognition of the “precious contribution” women make in the church. His Holiness has also created a panel of experts to look at women presiding at weddings, funerals and baptisms by serving as deacons, a ministry that was once filled by women in the early church. Our appreciation and applause, Your Holiness Pope Francis! Your inclusive love honors the holy light in all members of the Catholic church.
Coming up, vegan fast food chain to double its expansion in 2021. We’ll just step away for a minute and make ourselves useful by cleaning the common area. Supreme Master Television will return in just a moment with more visionary news. Welcome back to Noteworthy News – Delightful News for a Charming World.
United States-based vegan fast food chain plans significant expansion in 2021.
Plant Power Fast Food (PPFF), which first opened in San Diego, announced plans to establish seven new locations in 2021. The chain serves American comfort food classics from burgers and fish fillets to milk shakes that are all 100% vegan, 99% GMO-free, and sustainably sourced. With seven locations already in California, PPFF cited a more than 1,100% growth since its inception in 2016 and a nearly 47% growth compared to 2019. The new locations will be mainly in California, with one out of state, for a total of 14. We are so excited, Plant Power Fast Food, that you will enable more people to experience delicious, convenient and satisfying plant-based fare. May humanity quickly transition to a lifestyle that is all-compassionate and Earth-friendly, as Heavens rejoice.
South African police enhance efforts to protect highly endangered pangolin.
The peaceful pangolin, a quiet, nocturnal mammal, is currently under threat of extinction and by far the most trafficked animal globally. Their hard scales are sought after in the completely erroneous belief that they hold medicinal value. In Africa, this gentle creature is known as the venerable “wise old man” of the African bush and is thought to bring both good luck and rain. South African police are making brave efforts to intercept wildlife traffickers and rescue the pangolins, with incarceration of up to ten years for those who are convicted according to the country’s law. The South African government is a Shining World Leadership Award for Animal Protection recipient. Our gratitude, South African police and government. We pray that the innocent pangolin, along with all our precious animal co-citizens, will be shielded from harm, in Divine benediction.
Laughter is good for health, so we chose a joke of the day for you called, “90 Marks.”
“I take real pleasure in giving you a 90 on this test. Good job!”
“But Mrs. Rogers, you could fully enjoy yourself if you give me a 100 then!”
And now we have a heartline from Jane in Taiwan, also known as Formosa:
