CannabisNewsBreaks – Advanced Container Technologies Inc. (ACTX) GrowPods Viable Solution for Food Shortages
May 3, 2022
Advanced Container Technologies (OTC: ACTX), the exclusive U.S. distributor of self-contained, automated, indoor “micro-farms” called GrowPods, along with related equipment and supplies, has reported that these modular hydroponic greenhouses can help reduce global food shortage. The GrowPods can be set up almost anywhere in the world and can help feed local populations. Food shortage is a relevant topic because of the food shortages caused by the war in Ukraine. The country has been called the “breadbasket” of the world because it grows enough food, particularly wheat, to feed an estimated 400 million people. According to experts, the war is already impacting the food supply for everyone. According to Advanced Container Technologies, GrowPods can be set up almost anywhere and can be growing food in a matter of days. “GrowPods are complete growing systems so farming can get started quickly,” said Advanced Container Technologies CEO Doug Heldoorn in the press release. “Every farm-related task — from seeding to harvesting — is handled within the system. . . . These systems are perfect for relief organizations. We urge policymakers, NGOs and nonprofit organizations to consider deploying GrowPods or equivalent systems around the world in areas where food is desperately needed. This is not about selling more automated farms, it’s about solving a worldwide crisis and feeding people in desperate need.”

The Ebola outbreak is hitting a region already ravaged by decades of armed conflict, insecurity, and an overwhelmed health system. As the epidemic's epicenter shifts from Ituri to North Kivu, the disease is spreading and the transmission is accelerating.

Oh My Ghost! Oh My God! review: Naomi Watanabe gets lost in dismal Taiwanese horror comedy
1/5 stars Japanese comedian Naomi Watanabe plays a pop star who travels to the Taiwanese countryside in search of her ancestral home in the horror comedy Oh My Ghost! Oh My God! Marking the directorial debut of indigenous actor Soda Voyu, the film follows an eclectic group of oddball characters as they navigate all manner of supernatural obstacles in the hostile mountains, but fails spectacularly to be either scary or funny. A spiritual sequel to Hidden Treasures in the Mountain (2018), Oh My...
