Cooking With The Stars
Cooking With The Stars Hosted by Emma Willis and Tom Allen, ITV announces series five of Cooking With The Stars in partnership with M&S Food ITV has recommissioned entertainment series Cooking With The Stars as hosts Emma Willis and Tom Allen return for series five. Produced by South Shore and co-funded by M&S Food, the six-part cooking competition will return this summer to prime time on ITV1, ITVX, STV and STV Player. Across a series of exciting cooking battles, the show will see eight celebrities go head to head in the kitchen as they attempt to go from passionate amateur cooks to restaurant level chefs. Each celebrity will be paired with an accomplished chef who will mentor and teach them to produce delicious dishes that will be judged by the other professionals. The celebrities hoping to cook up a storm this series will be actor Natalie Cassidy, reality TV star Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu, actor and comedian Hugh Dennis, author and interiors expert Kelly Hoppen, radio presenter Jordan North, media personality Jack Osbourne, reality TV star Jessica Wright and former footballer Shaun Wright-Phillips. At the end of each episode, the bottom two will have to fight for their place in the competition, creating a dish without any help from their mentor. The result of this eliminator will be decided by a blind tasting judgement from the professional chefs, but, unaware of whose food they are tasting, the professionals could go from being their protege's greatest supporter to unwittingly voting them out of the competition. Emma Willis said: "I'm absolutely delighted to be back in the kitchen for another series of Cooking With The Stars. Every year our celebrities throw themselves into it, and this new line-up is no exception. It's always a mix of nerves, excitement, and a few inevitable kitchen catastrophes which makes for brilliant tele.

Get ready for a delicious, slightly burnt and completely fabulous ride – that golden frying pan is waiting.'

Globe Climate: Another tick-infested summer
If you're reading this on the web or someone forwarded this e-mail newsletter to you, you can sign up for Globe Climate and all Globe newsletters here. Good afternoon, and welcome to Globe Climate, a newsletter about climate change, environment and resources in Canada. Award-winning photographers Shane Gross and Cristina Mittermeier are using their images to aid global marine and freshwater ecosystem conservation efforts, and to bring public attention to the importance of our oceans. Gross and Mittermeier joined journalists Jenn Thornhill Verma and Ryan MacDonald in a pair of conversations at a Globe and Mail event in Toronto in partnership with Rolex. Catch on up their discussion about the power of photography to spur change, responses to some of the best-known images, and current areas of focus. Now, let's catch you up on other news. For this week's deeper dive, Nova Scotians watch their backs – and each other's. Health science reporter Jennifer Yang writes that as temperatures warm, tick populations, and their diseases, do as well. With each year that passes, Canadian seasons are getting warmer, for longer, and ticks are expanding their range. And as tick populations have taken off, so, too, have the diseases they can spread through their bites. Nova Scotia's South Shore has become home to some of the country's densest populations of blacklegged ticks – a vector for the bacterium that causes Lyme disease. 'People who haven't even seen ticks before are seeing them, and seeing many,' says Donna Lugar, founder of the Nova Scotia Lyme Disease Support Group, which she formed in 2013. 'I've never heard such horror stories as I've heard this year.' And climate change is making this a reality for more and more people. 'Canada's heating probably faster than anywhere else in the world, and the ticks are moving into those places as they warm,' says Nick Ogden, director of the modelling hub division with the Public Health Agency of Canada, who has studied ticks and Lyme disease since the 1990s. 'The range expansion of the tick has happened faster than the modelling we did a decade ago. Because it's actually warming faster than the climate models were telling us back then.' Communities like Lunenburg County in Nova Scotia offer a glimpse of what lies ahead for many other swaths of the country, where temperatures are rising and the ticks are inching in. Meanwhile, nationally reported cases of Lyme disease have climbed from 522 in 2014 to a preliminary count of 5,239 last year. Until a vaccine is a possibility, Canadians are finding other ways to fight back. Pesticides are being developed and could help, if it too can adapt to warming temperatures.

He says that while Trump rambles on anti-renewables, the energy transition proceeds. Plus, the reduction in the price of assets and products (because of Trump) creates a golden opportunity for both investors and consumers. We've launched the next chapter of The Climate Exchange, an interactive, digital hub where The Globe answers your most pressing questions about climate change. More than 300 questions were submitted as of September. The first batch of answers tackles 30 of them. They can be found with the help of a search tool developed by The Globe that makes use of artificial intelligence to match readers' questions with the closest answer drafted. We plan to answer a total of 75 questions. We want to hear from you. Email us: GlobeClimate@ Do you know someone who needs this newsletter? Send them to our Newsletters page.
