Sponsor: Syndicate Sales
Speaker: Charlie Hall, Ph.D., Texas A&M University
Your business does not exist in a vacuum. Political events in Washington, D.C., and around the world have a profound effect on the global economy, which in turn impact floral industry professionals’ operating costs, hiring ability, access to product and more. The current economic expansion has been one of the longest in our country’s history, but we know that bright skies can’t last forever. So how soon will things start to decline? And how will floral consumers respond to changing economic conditions? History tells us that short-term corrections had limited impact, but the last recession was a game-changer. Will the next downturn be that bad? Dr. Charlie Hall, the Ellison Chair in International Floriculture at Texas A&M University and a noted economist cited by Bloomberg News, CNN and numerous agricultural publications, will offer answers to these questions, along with a breakdown of major issues facing the floral industry today and in the near future.
You’ll learn:
How the U.S.-China trade war could affect the cost of manufacturing floral foam, plastic containers and other key hard goods for the industry
How to operate amidst increased transportation expenses and labor shortages
How to market the benefits of flowers, so consumers do not dismiss them as luxurious frivolities in the event of another recession

As a part of the Environment Day celebrations students of Udgam School participated in a wide range of activities. The day began on a solemn note wherein the ways in which we are harming the environment were taken up alongwith the joint measures that need to be taken to save the planet. The celebration started with a pledge to save the environment in all possible ways. Soon the events began and students joined elocution, poster making, slogan creating, jingle creating, best out of waste and many such activities under the able guidance of their teachers. The children thoroughly enjoyed the activities especially being in a group and working together for a common goal, which is the essence of the school. No wonder even on a school holiday there were so many participants all agog to join in for the cause of the environment amidst some fun.
Late this afternoon, a storm rolled through the neighborhood overtaking the fluffy white clouds in the distance!

This lovely model, we're told, is from the Merrimack Shipyards in the USA. Painting by Kosta of Eureka Miniatures. You would swear he used an airbrush. He didn't. Oh, and yes - five vehicles did indeed blow up within a few inches of the starting grid.
