Licensed venues on the GC are making little effort to offer lower-alcohol products. While people attend licensed premises to drink alcohol, the current offerings make it hard for drinkers to moderate alcohol consumption. Blake Palmer @irwin_cg bit.ly/3TQTUCN

Many interesting talks on thermoregulation & hydration at ECSS. An important topic in this warming world. Cooling techniques should be specific to the athlete and sport; hydration plans should be individualised; large variance in individual fluid intakes. There is a themeโ€ฆ

In Aust, binge drinking by young adults remains a problem. Decisions to drink alcohol involve an array of interrelated factors. Here, Blake Palmer uses a behavioural framework (COM-B) to better understand drinking decisions. Griffith Health @irwin_cg onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/daโ€ฆ

The new comprehensive Wasted Food Scale is an excellent upgrade to the Food Recovery Hierarchy with lots of answers to previous questions. Specifically on the classification of which strategies that divert food waste from landfill are the most preferred. lnkd.in/gDmBDp6d
