**World news, outside the US.** Original rationale: unless moderated, internal US news and politics often dominates world news in English, because of its demographic position. This magazine/community is to post news and articles from around the globe, but posts must have a mainly non-US component or focus. Submissions related in some way to the Alan Weisman book *The World Without Us*, which is about what would happen if humans suddenly disappeared from the planet, are also welcome. :)

The Kazakhstani government has pledged year-round access to locally grown vegetables at reasonable prices by the end of 2025. This commitment was made during an extensive meeting chaired by Vice Prime Minister Serik Zhumangarin, as reported by Premierminister.kz.

As part of comprehensive anti-inflation measures led by the Ministry of Agriculture, a project is underway to construct a greenhouse complex for vegetable cultivation on protected soil. This initiative aims to stabilize prices and ensure a steady supply of domestically produced vegetables at affordable rates, with the project scheduled to launch in the upcoming year.

Zhumangarin has instructed for the active sale of vegetable reserves, with the Ministry of Trade and Qaztrade assisting farmers from the Zhambyl region in selling 130 tons of onions at reasonable prices.
