Aldi announces huge change with over 18s set to benefit
Anyone over 18 could benefit from changes to the Aldi alcohol and wine aisle, it has been revealed. Aldi is making a change to 20 million of its wine bottles in a UK supermarket first. Aldi has collaborated with its wine suppliers and bottling partner Greencroft to introduce lighter wine bottles as part of its ongoing commitment to reduce unnecessary packaging. The new bottles weigh just 300g, taking the average weight across the range from 409g to just 371g, with additional bottles likely to follow later in the year. As the first UK supermarket to make this change, Aldi's new 300g bottles are now being used for popular lines such as Grapevine Sauvignon Blanc and Grapevine Merlot. This move forms part of a broader initiative that has seen the supermarket gradually reduce bottle weights since 2022, resulting in the removal of approximately 12.7 million empty bottles from circulation each year. Recommended reading: Luke Emery, National Sustainability Director at Aldi UK, said in a statement: 'We're always looking for practical ways to reduce our environmental footprint while continuing to deliver the unbeatable quality and value our customers expect. 'By working closely with our wine suppliers, we're introducing a simple yet impactful change that's already cutting down on materials and associated carbon. "It's one of the many steps we're taking as we continue to explore how we can continue to reduce bottle weights across our range and make our products more sustainable over time.'

Trade war escalates: Canada hikes duties as Trump halts negotiations
The response came hours after Trump posted on Truth Social about how Canada is a 'very difficult country to trade with.' His reason for suspending trade negotiations came down to a tax Canada is set to impose on major tech companies starting Monday. 'Based on this egregious Tax, we are hereby terminating ALL discussions on Trade with Canada, effective immediately,' Trump wrote, adding that the levy 'is a direct and blatant attack on our Country.' Last week, the finance minister said he would not delay the implementation of the digital services tax, which applies to any firm making more than $15 million from Canadian internet users. The three percent tax will strike at the heart of American companies like Amazon, Google, Meta, Uber and Airbnb. And because the tax is retroactive back to 2022, one tech lobbying group said American firms will soon have to pay up to $3 billion directly into Canada's treasury. Canada has not ruled out further action to strike back at Trump for ending negotiations, with the government saying it 'remains prepared to take additional steps as needed.' How Canada's hike on US steel imports will affect the industry, which has been struggling for years, is yet to be seen. US Steel Corporation, once one of the most valuable companies in the world, just merged with Japan's Nippon Steel earlier this month after years of declining sales. Canada is also hugely impacted by Trump's 50 percent tax on steel and aluminum imports, as the country is largest foreign supplier of those materials to the US. Canada's steel industry has laid off a staggering 1,000 workers since the first US tariffs in March, Reuters reported. It has also been impacted by the 25 percent duties Trump has levied on foreign-made vehicles and parts.
