CEO Casey Castillo 00:04:16.149 --> 00:04:18.730 reports that the organization will receive less 00:04:18.730 --> 00:04:21.370 food through federally funded programs in the 00:04:21.370 --> 00:04:26.670 2026 fiscal year.

The food bank expects to distribute 7 00:04:33.389 --> 00:04:37.110 million fewer pounds of food this year. Castillo 00:04:37.110 --> 00:04:40.129 emphasizes we are resilient and the organization 00:04:40.129 --> 00:04:43.350 plans to use reserve funds to bridge the gap. 00:04:44.360 --> 00:04:47.319 Local nonprofits continue to report increasing 00:04:47.319 --> 00:04:50.680 demand for food assistance amid ongoing economic 00:04:50.680 --> 00:05:00.639 uncertainties.

Coach 00:05:16.000 --> 00:05:18.579 Kevin Stefanski acknowledged that while Sanders 00:05:18.579 --> 00:05:21.860 has areas to improve, he demonstrated he belongs. 00:05:22.600 --> 00:05:25.759 In a thrilling moment, Cam Little of the Jaguars 00:05:25.759 --> 00:05:29.500 kicked a remarkable 70 -yard field goal, sparking 00:05:29.500 --> 00:05:33.699 discussions about the accuracy of kickers. Unfortunately, 00:05:33.980 --> 00:05:36.560 a frightening injury occurred when Lions safety 00:05:36.560 --> 00:05:39.339 Morris Norris was taken to the hospital, but 00:05:39.339 --> 00:05:43.500 is now stable.

In top news, 00:06:35.350 --> 00:06:38.569 a meteorite that crashed through a homeowner's 00:06:38.569 --> 00:06:41.470 roof in Georgia earlier this summer is actually 00:06:41.470 --> 00:06:44.329 older than Earth itself, according to scientist 00:06:44.329 --> 00:06:48.389 Scott Harris. The meteorite, which created a 00:06:48.389 --> 00:06:50.550 dent in the floor, is believed to have formed 00:06:50.550 --> 00:06:54.610 4 .5 billion years ago, making it roughly 20 00:06:54.610 --> 00:06:58.310 million years older than our planet. Harris noted 00:06:58.310 --> 00:07:00.649 that it belongs to a group of asteroids from 00:07:00.649 --> 00:07:03.470 the main asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. 00:07:04.149 --> 00:07:07.069 The homeowner is still discovering specks of 00:07:07.069 --> 00:07:10.269 space dust around his living room. Researchers 00:07:10.269 --> 00:07:13.490 plan to propose naming the meteorite the McDonough 00:07:13.490 --> 00:07:17.769 meteorite, after the city where it fell. In business 00:07:17.769 --> 00:07:22.430 news, Boeing and Airbus have suspended their 00:07:22.430 --> 00:07:25.660 next -generation airliner projects. casting doubt 00:07:25.660 --> 00:07:30.480 on airlines' net -zero plans. Boeing's X -66A, 00:07:30.639 --> 00:07:32.980 which aimed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, 00:07:33.339 --> 00:07:37.879 was put on hold after initial enthusiasm. Similarly, 00:07:38.180 --> 00:07:41.740 Airbus paused its Zero E hydrogen plane, originally 00:07:41.740 --> 00:07:46.860 slated for service by 2035. Experts warn that 00:07:46.860 --> 00:07:49.439 these delays could hinder the airline industry's 00:07:49.439 --> 00:07:52.680 goal of achieving net -zero emissions by 2050. 00:07:54.060 --> 00:07:57.000 With aviation responsible for a significant share 00:07:57.000 --> 00:07:59.720 of global emissions, pressure is mounting for 00:07:59.720 --> 00:08:03.540 manufacturers to innovate. New contenders, like 00:08:03.540 --> 00:08:07.079 Jet Zero, with a radical design plan, may challenge 00:08:07.079 --> 00:08:11.000 Boeing and Airbus' dominance.
