With the help of community donations, an Ohio restaurant is providing thousands of free Thanksgiving meals
For the fifth year in a row, Good Plates Eatery in Ohio is making sure its neighbors have a free meal to enjoy on Thanksgiving — no questions asked.
The restaurant's twice-a-year tradition (they also do it on Christmas) started during the pandemic in 2020, when they provided 70 meals. This year, they'll provide more than 3,000 meals.
Part of the reason for this incredible growth: the surrounding community. All the food that's being given away this year was donated, including about 800 pounds of chicken and 2,000 pounds of potatoes.
Why is this good news?This year, as the cost of certain food items has increased, more families than usual may be experiencing food insecurity around the holidays especially. This local restaurant is using the skills and tools they have, with the help of others, to make a difference at a time when people really need it.
This is further evidenced by the fact that some high-income countries are already close to eliminating cervical cancer, with fewer than four cases per 100,000 women.
Where the world has the most room to improve is in low- and middle-income countries, which have been given disproportionately low access to these tools and therefore now account for 94% of cervical cancer deaths.
Why is this good news?Every year, around 660,000 women are diagnosed with cervical cancer, and 350,000 women die — leaving as many, if not more, children without a caregiver, leading to greater poverty, and families grieving the loss of a loved one.
The fact that we have all the tools we need is incredible news — now, we need to get those tools to all parts of the world where they're needed.

The world's first and largest offshore solar farm is now online in China
Located off the coast of eastern China, the first solar units in the world's largest offshore solar farm have now officially been connected to the grid.
Once fully complete and online, the solar farm is expected to generate 1.78 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity every year, which is enough to power around 2.67 million homes.
It's expected to save around 503,000 tons of coal and cut carbon emissions by 1.34 million tons annually. Notably, the solar farm is dual-purpose and includes fish farming to integrate renewable energy with aquaculture.
Why is this good news? As carbon emissions in China continue to rise at a staggering rate, it's critical that the country also invest in massive renewable energy solutions like this to provide cleaner means to reach its energy demand.
We are thrilled to announce that we met — and exceeded! — our Good News Pledge-a-Thon goal! We are so, so grateful. We're also deeply proud to have a community that not only believes in this kind of news — but wants to back it financially so it can continue.

Making history for the endangered species, a gray wolf pack was just spotted in a California national park
A pack of endangered gray wolves has been spotted living in Lassen Volcanic National Park — a first for the park in recorded history.
The new, yet-to-be-named wolf pack likely descends from neighboring members of the Lassen Pack, a group of wolves that reside in Lassen County outside of Lassen Volcanic National Park.
In 2017, young pups from the Lassen Pack were spotted playing on trail cameras set up by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife — and it is possible that one of those same pups is now leading this new pack of its own.
Why is this good news? Gray wolves are classified as federally endangered in the state of California, due to habitat loss and human interference. Shrinking habitats have led wolves to attack local livestock instead of wild prey, which is all the more reason to protect and expand their natural habitat.
