En Japón, debido al calor insoportable y a veces peligroso que hace durante el verano, este jardín de infancia ha instalado un techo retráctil para que los niños puedan jugar a la sombra
🇪🇺🇨🇳 The EU is reportedly preparing tariffs on Chinese plug-in hybrid vehicles, and the paperwork is done. They're just waiting for member states to say yes.
That closes the loophole Chinese automakers have been exploiting: shipping hybrids to Europe to avoid the EV duties.

The Singapore charging and battery swapping standard SS 722, which NIO played a key role in developing, has now been officially launched.
This should also help remove regulatory barriers for NIO vehicles to offer battery swapping services in Singapore in the future.
It is worth noting that NIO has not only taken a leading role in drafting multiple battery swapping standards in China, but has also participated in the development of battery swapping standards in several overseas countries, including Germany.

Laos has suspended the import of petrol and diesel-powered vehicles for the rest of the year to accelerate the adoption of EVs and reduce fuel imports.
Quite a bold strategy!
Some exemptions for passenger transport vehicles, machinery, and trucks for development projects.
When will the Sri Lankan government start taking meaningful steps to promote more EV use?
BREAKING: Google is planning to release 32 million mosquitoes across Florida and California.
The company has asked the EPA for permission to proceed, with the public given until June 5 to respond.
The mosquitoes are infected with Wolbachia bacteria, which stops them from reproducing and slowly collapses the wild population from within.
Google's previous Debug Project trial in California's Central Valley nearly eliminated mosquitoes from three test sites entirely. A separate trial in Singapore cut dengue cases by 70% within 12 months.
Google has now released over 1 billion mosquitoes across four continents. This new proposal is the largest deployment in US history.
All personnel are accounted for and safe. It’s too early to know the root cause but we’re already working to find it. Very rough day, but we’ll rebuild whatever needs rebuilding and get back to flying. It’s worth it.
Ecco le prime immagini del sistema di grotte dove sono morti i 5 sub italiani. Le foto realizzate dal team finlandese documentano le sezioni piu interne dove “la visibilità puó scomparire rapidamente”.

⚫ Emergono nuovi dettagli sulla tragedia delle Maldive costata la vita a cinque sub italiani durante un’immersione in una grotta a circa 50 metri di profondità. Il corpo di Gianluca Benedetti, l’unico recuperato finora, è stato trovato con la bombola completamente scarica nella seconda delle tre cavità sommerse.
Questo elemento rafforza l’ipotesi investigativa secondo cui il gruppo avrebbe perso l’orientamento o sarebbe rimasto bloccato all’interno della grotta fino all’esaurimento dell’ossigeno. Gli altri quattro dispersi — Monica Montefalcone, Giorgia Sommacal, Muriel Oddenino e Federico Gualtieri — si troverebbero probabilmente nella terza camera della grotta, ancora più profonda.
Le operazioni di recupero restano estremamente complesse a causa delle condizioni meteo e della conformazione della cavità. Intanto la Procura di Roma e le autorità maldiviane hanno aperto indagini per chiarire le cause dell’incidente, mentre l’Università di Genova ha precisato che l’immersione non rientrava ufficialmente nel progetto scientifico finanziato dall’ateneo

✨🇨🇳Two-thirds of the world’s electric two-wheelers are manufactured in China.
Interestingly, some of these electric two-wheelers also come equipped with autonomous driving features.

Our choice of surfacing directly impacts the livability of our city. Asphalt acts as a massive heat sink, hitting 60.6°C nearly 20°C hotter than natural sandy surfaces. We need more cooling, permeable surfaces & shade in Male'
This is deeply concerning.
Pesticide residue analysis from Thoddoo shows multiple crops exceeding EU safety limits, including banned chemicals like Carbaryl and Diafenthiuron detected in everyday foods like cucumber, papaya, and spinach.
This isn’t just overuse. This is a public health risk.
We need urgent monitoring, accountability, and farmer education before this becomes a crisis.
