While Florida’s electrical grid is more resilient than Texas’ deregulated model, energy experts warn state lawmakers are still attempting to strip all power and control from local governments. Florida’s energy market is regulated through federal guidelines and by the state’s Public Service Commission, but a “pre-emption” bill by Sen. Travis Hutson – R- St. Augustine, who chairs the Senate Regulated Industries Committee – would give the state regulatory control of “energy infrastructure” projects. Zac Cosner is an energy and climate policy advocate for the group Florida Conservation Voters. He said if passed, the bill would block localities from having a say on the “construction of new or the expansion, upgrading, or repair of existing energy infrastructure.” “This would probably be the biggest power grab by Tallahassee, by the state government, that I can think of,” said Cosner. “It would have completely broad scope and broad impact upon all manner of energy policy and the way in...

A quarter of people aged 70 or above have suffered financial abuse, according to a new survey which details the shocking scale of the problem. The report – by new financial service GuardianCard , whose co-founder’s mother-in-law was frauded – also reveals that more than half (56%) fear they’re more of a target for thefts, scams and frauds due to pandemic. Covid , financial pressures and social isolation have created a ‘perfect storm’ with older people even more dependent on carers, family and friends and at greater risk of financial abuse from loved ones, rogue traders and professional scammers.

It can be as simple as a carer, relative or neighbour stealing from an elderly person by adding items for themselves when doing their shopping for them, while in more serious cases people can be tri...

As with nearly all nutrients that come in supplement form, overdose is theoretically possible. But most people get far too little; experts say too much is rare! In recent generations, Western diets have shifted to include more processed foods and less fish, leaving our bodies simultaneously prone to disease and deprived of a crucial weapon to fight it: omega-3 fatty acids. These essential fats bestow a cavalcade of essential benefits on our bodies, leading medical experts to push us to eat more seafood and consider taking omega-3 supplements. But for all the positive attention, its natural to worry about possible downsides. Are there any side effects to taking omega-3s? Can we take too much of them? Research suggests we shouldn’t be very concerned about eating too much omega-3. In fact, the vast majority of people are eating too little, not too much. And while some studies have found evidence of potential health risks in people who eat extremely high levels of these fatty acids, ...

Black elected officials are speaking out about what they see as Gov. Ron DeSantis’s pattern of prioritizing COVID-19 vaccines for people in affluent, mostly white neighborhoods. State Rep. Omari Hardy – D-West Palm Beach – said white individuals are being vaccinated much sooner and faster all over the state, with Black individuals left lagging. Reporters raised concerns by some Manatee County officials that the new vaccine pop-up site in an upscale development was not in an area of most need . The governor responded, “If Manatee County doesn’t like us doing this, then we are totally fine with putting this in counties that want it.” “That’s authoritarian,” said Hardy. “It’s vindictive. It’s just downright evil, and the governor should apologize for that. And if he doesn’t apologize, then it shows that that’s what he really feels. That’s what he really wishes he could do, in his heart.” When asked about the criticism during an appearance on Fox News, DeSantis said he’s “putting se...
