Stories from China

A report from CNR Economic Voice described how autumn preparations are made for small animals in China. Lung cancer's incidence and mortality rates remain high. Secondhand smoke exposure in public places, workplaces, homes, and social gatherings is considered unethical. Harmful substances from firsthand smoke are present in secondhand smoke. Air pollution, kitchen fumes, renovation pollution, and internal emotional distress also contribute to lung cancer. This function is compared to a bowstring, where a strong string allows for a far-reaching shot. Ancient warriors focused on liver health through diet and exercise to stay strong and agile. The eyes are considered a window to liver function; clear, bright eyes indicate sufficient liver blood, while cloudy eyes or blurred vision suggest liver blood deficiency or excess liver fire.

The populations of wild boars, dogs, and other wild animals are recovering in many areas of China due to increased efforts in ecological environmental protection. A Chinese conservation program has successfully rescued and released over ten tigers into the wild over the past 20 years. Stray dog numbers have decreased rapidly due to comprehensive sterilization and neutering programs.

Deforestation in the Amazon rainforest saw a 17% decrease during the first quarter of 2026. This reduction was observed across various regions within the Amazon basin. The data reflects a positive trend in conservation efforts. This reduction was reported across multiple sources, with data originating from Beijing and Jakarta, and also noted in Hong Kong. This information is corroborated by reports from Beijing and Brasilia. This reduction is given the increasing difficulty in controlling the problem, with double the surface area burned in the last two decades compared to previous periods. Technology implementation is seen as a key aid in addressing this issue. This reduction is attributed to increased conservation efforts and stricter enforcement of environmental regulations. The positive trend offers a glimmer of hope for the preservation of this ecosystem.

The widespread adoption of AI is increasing computational demands. Future technological upgrades for AI will focus on shifting from image generation to task execution. This evolution is expected to occur within the next two to three years.

Artificial intelligence is becoming increasingly widespread, with a growing user base and more identified application scenarios.

An estimated 200,000 Kalmyks, a nomadic people, migrated to China in the early part of 1771. The exact number of individuals is difficult to determine, as records often counted yurts rather than people. The migration involved the Torgut, one of the main Kalmyk tribes, and is referred to as the Torgut escape. Determining the exact number of people involved is challenging, as historical records often count yurts rather than individuals, making family size an unknown variable. The average family size per yurt is uncertain, but the figure of 200,000 is a commonly used estimate. A portion of Kalmyks also settled in the Don Cossack region. The Russian Orthodox Church was active in proselytizing among them throughout the 18th century. About 100,000 of them chose to remain in Russia.
