Iran, this is 1 Camino or was in the kitchen. I'm here in Porto Alegre, Brazil arriving to our kitchen. I am the activation manager wasn't in the kitchen. You have seen me around. I am the person in charge responsible of the leadership and the direction of our responses in some of the places like is happening here in Brazil and today we are going to meet in the next instant stories. My team This is possible because we have multiple teams doing the work that is needed to make sure that meals arrived to the place where. They needed the boss. This is accomplished task. We arrived to a country within hours after this actually happens. Sometimes it's the first time that we are in that country city and we just need to start cooking and delivering meals as soon as possible. And that just possible because of the help of my teams. So today you're going to be them. You are going to explore what they do, how they do things and get to know more how more central kitchen operation works from the beginning to the end with multiple teams. I I'm Kyle Carpenter, I'm the procurement logistics. Manager for CK's response to Rio de Sol. German logistics is focused on bringing in all the supplies that our chefs need to create delicious meals going out to the community behind me, I have a dishwashing station. My infrastructure team is designing electrical systems to keep everything safe, hot, delicious. We've built a kitchen with 30 burners at over 18,000 liters of fresh water available to make sure that we're creating sanitary and delicious food for our communities. We started from nothing. We're working out of a factories. Great room and five days ago it was bare floors. Now we've got 30 burners and of charcoal grill that's able to produce over 10,000 meals a day. Hi, my name is Sandy and I am here on the ground in Porto Alegre, Brazil. Here for this activation I am the Field finance lead. And what does that entail you may ask? Well, every country that we go to has different international banking laws. So we have to learn what happens in each country from a financial perspective so that we can pay the people to feed the people. But it's not a one man show. I have an entire team at our HQ. In DC, that helps support all of the work on the ground. Hi, my name is Alejandro Perez, the culinary manager for Latin America. And we're here in Porto Alegre, Brazil, where we have set up a beautiful fuel kitchen that we started from scratch. Every time we go to a new location, it's a matter of finding the right people, grinding the right location. And I'm very proud to say that we have set up a field kitchen with 30 burners, massive water tank systems and expediting out of the kitchen and in massive floors for 200 people. They were making a play on traditional Brazilian dish that it's mixed lentils, rice and three different types of proteins. So everyone is really excited. I'm going to show you guys what the process is for getting something like this set up. They were making 15,000 meals and this is what makes the magic happen. Numbers. It's all about math and being very organized. So every morning we come in, we do a full breakdown of the full menu through the kilogram. Do they grab? Today we managed to do 15,000. Tomorrow we're gonna go to 17,000 and end up with 20,000 meals. I am Santello for World Central Kitchen, and we're here in Brazil and I'm in charge of expediting and the the district came on site. What we do here is basically we make sure that all the foods that kitchen makes, we properly put it in the containers and get it in the Vance. We know where everyone's going, the quantities, the amounts, the address, and at what time everything leaves the kitchen. So basically we have a better control of how it gets to the place, warm and hot, so everyone has their perfect meal and we send the plates, spoons, forks, anything people need to eat, a warm nice wheel from World Central Kitchen. We have our advance all tags and we have our distro team here which is great. Hi, I'm Allie. I'm mapping specialists at Rosenthal Kitchen here in Porto Alegre, Brazil. We use maps in many ways at WCK. Before we even get here, we usually try to make a map of the disaster area so we can focus in on the key areas, where to go, where to find people, where to help. And then as the activation gets going, we start plotting with our scouts all the areas they're visiting, prioritizing who needs meals, who we still need to visit, the different communities, and then helping our district. You can find the roots to best should be the food. This is Trish. I am the community outreach unit lead here in Brazil. When community outreach first gets on the ground, we spread out and we send the scouts out to all the different areas that are affected. And we assess the need as quickly and efficiently as possible. We speak to just about anybody we can find. We chart the roads. One of the roads look like. What do the resources look like? Who is without resources? Which markets are open in the area? Yeah, just fully. Causing the need and then come back to our distro teams with recipient points potential places we can set up our distro operations and we get it going as soon as possible Usually we arrive with sandwiches from a restaurant partner and then follow up as quickly as possible with delicious hot meals from the distribution team of World Central Kitchen where in Brazil I'm going to show you what's a day in the distribution team. So basically what we do is that we come to a place that has already been. Cooking food or some places here have been cooking food for 30 days. And So what we're doing is now is helping with the resilience of this project. The idea is to bring them food, good quality food. So we've engaged with vendors, local distributors, because we also want to optimize the economy for people to be able. We're buying local food from local groceries. And now we have a team right now that's unloading 15 tons of food. We have rice, we have facial pimples, black beans. We also have these oil and sugar, salt, tomato paste and everything that our kitchen, a community kitchen, should have. From this place, we're taking about 1000 meals per day and the idea is to grow the community kitchens for people in Brazil, import Valero area, start feeding themselves. Find out from World Central Kitchen. I'm the photographer and filmmaker for this activation and I'll be telling stories, interviewing people, and showing everything we're doing here with World Central Kitchen. We're distributing food, the chefs are making them unbelievable meals, and I'm going out as well on the field with community outreach, getting to know the people that got affected, trying to get to hear their stories, photograph them and show you guys what's happening here. And how we're working together with people, trying to meet with their needs and help them out in this difficult situations.

Floods and fires its all part of climate change, please Anthony we need a national border carbon tax of 20 % to pay for mitigation/adaptation/and restoration projects, With current emissions @465 million tn per year multiplied by $20 per tn co2e = 9.2 billion dollars per year, that's a lot of solar panels, wind turbines, and battery packs, hydrogen ammonia electrolisers, Let's make Australia a leader in renewable energy, Let's produce our own solar panels, wind turbines, and nickel/hydrogen 50.000 cycle batteries as well as being a ; global leader in hydrogen/ammonia fertilizers production, And we have lots of desert lands that can be hydrated via large scale reticulation from coastal waters with water desalination/carbon sequestration/hydrogen ammonia hubs then pumped inland to agroforestry/biofuel/and food crops, We could produce 50 million barrels of biofuels per day boat, car , truck, and plane fuels half of the worlds current production all from low emissions carbon neutral biofuels
So not only do we feed and hydrate the people of the world we employ them as well installing belief in their selves, and creating a better quality of life for the people, , let's do it, let's lead by example,

Kay and Max lost almost everything in the devastating floods that hit Eugowra at the end of 2022.
When I visited the community then, homes had been torn from their foundations and pushed onto the street.
We said we’d do everything we could to help locals get back on their feet.
And we’ve done just that, supporting Kay and Max with a grant they’ve used for a deposit to rebuild their place.
“We’ll never forget the floods, but it’s not the major part of our life anymore,” Kay told me.
While the recovery in Eugowra continues, we'll keep providing support for residents and businesses doing it tough.
Can you help us measure the impact of our flood resilience work?
Whether you chatted with us about flood risk, volunteered, or were part of discussions aimed at removing barriers to nature-based solutions, or had measures installed on your land, regardless of your level of involvement, we want to hear YOUR views.
Got 5 minutes? 🙏

Tropical Storm Debby is causing widespread chaos in the Southeast.
Here’s my summary of a recent Red Cross article detailing the ongoing efforts:
• Safe shelters are open across Florida, Georgia, South Carolina.
• 770+ Red Cross volunteers are on the ground, offering aid.
• 280+ people have found refuge in emergency shelters.
• Flooding continues, with more rain on the way.
• Blood drives canceled, worsening the national shortage.
I’m deeply grateful for the incredible work the Red Cross and first responders are doing during this crisis.
