Today's data selection: Large scale price increase of traditional Chinese medicine; The magnitude of global temperature rise in the next five years may exceed the original threshold
Large scale price increase of 25 commonly used bulk Chinese medicinal materials by over 200%
Since June this year, the continuous rise in prices of traditional Chinese medicine across the country has attracted attention from all parties. According to reports released by relevant industry associations, in several major wholesale and trading markets of traditional Chinese medicine, such as Bozhou in Anhui, Anguo in Hebei, Chengdu in Sichuan, and Yulin in Guangxi, over 200 conventional varieties have increased by more than 50% compared to the same period last year, 25 commonly used bulk medicinal materials have increased by more than 200%, and some varieties have even increased in price by 4 to 9 times. Experts explain that the primary factor driving up the price of traditional Chinese medicine is the frequent occurrence of abnormal weather, which leads to a reduction in the production of traditional Chinese medicine. Meanwhile, as the recognition of traditional Chinese medicine among the general public deepens, the market demand for traditional Chinese medicine health care is also increasing.
Ranking of Talent Attraction in Chinese Cities: Over 70% of Eastern Cities in Top 100, Beijing and Shanghai Rank in the Top Three
Top 100 Most Attractive Cities for Talents in China: Eastern cities account for over 70% of the top 100. From the results, Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Hangzhou, Nanjing, Chengdu, Suzhou, Wuhan, and Wuxi ranked in the top ten in 2022. In 2022, the proportion of fresh graduates, master's degree and above talents who send their resumes to first tier cities was 20.7% and 26.8%, both higher than the proportion of mobile talents flowing to first tier cities. Fresh graduates and master's degree and above talents tend to cluster in first and second tier cities, especially master's degree and above talents are more inclined to cluster in first tier cities.
Talent gathering in first tier cities and the Yangtze River Delta and Pearl River Delta has led to an increase in cross regional mobility of talents in high-energy cities. From a regional perspective, due to its strong economic foundation and high strategic positioning, talent continues to gather in the eastern region, while net outflows continue to occur in the central, western, and northeastern regions. By line, in 2022, the net inflow of talents from first tier, second tier, third tier, and fourth tier accounted for 5.3%, -0.5%, -0.5%, and -4.3% respectively. The gathering of first tier talents slowed down, while second tier talents slightly flowed out and third and fourth tier talents continued to flow out. Looking at urban clusters, over 6% of the population only flows to the five major urban clusters. In 2022, talent in the Yangtze River Delta and Pearl River Delta will continue to gather, while talent in the Beijing Tianjin Hebei region will turn into a net inflow. Talent in Chengdu Chongqing and the middle reaches of the Yangtze River will continue to flow out.
The proportion of net talent inflow in Beijing has increased, while the proportion of Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Guangzhou has slightly decreased. In the early stage of Beijing, due to strict population control and industrial relocation, the proportion of net talent inflow has been decreasing year by year, until it rebounded in 2020 and continued to reach new highs in 2022, mainly due to higher income levels and relaxed talent introduction policies; Shanghai's net inflow of talent in 2022 ranked first in the country, mainly due to the initial effectiveness of Shanghai's new economic promotion policies and the relaxation of household registration policies; Although Shenzhen experienced negative population growth for the first time in 2022, there is still a net inflow of talents and a significant concentration of talents, mainly due to the fast economic development speed, high level of innovative development, and strong ability to attract and retain talents; Shenzhen and Guangzhou are the first target cities for talent outflow to each other; In recent years, the net inflow of talents in Guangzhou has been stable, mainly due to its fast economic development and the lowest cost of living among first tier cities.
The global temperature rise in the next five years may exceed the temperature rise threshold stipulated in the Paris Agreement
The Secretary General of the World Meteorological Organization, Talas, stated at the 2023 China International Fair for Trade in Services that the global temperature rise in the next five years may exceed the temperature rise threshold stipulated in the Paris Agreement, and the impact of climate change is becoming increasingly significant.
Talas stated that the impact of climate change has become very significant. With the intensification of climate change, extreme weather events around the world are becoming more frequent, and high temperatures are frequently set around the world. Affected by El Ni ñ o, this year or next may become the hottest year on meteorological records.
Taras stated that scientific evidence suggests that the global warming at the end of the 21st century should be controlled within the threshold targets set by the Paris Agreement. Unfortunately, many countries have failed to make commitments, and global greenhouse gas emissions are still reaching new highs. Carbon dioxide, as the most important greenhouse gas, has been steadily increasing in emissions, so the world will not be able to meet the goals set by the Paris Agreement. "According to the current situation, the global temperature rise will reach 2.5-3 ℃ by the end of the 21st century." Talas said that if the negative trend continues until 2060, it will bring more and more negative impacts to the economic development of various countries. The World Economic Forum also pointed out that the failure to address climate change in the next 10 years will be the biggest risk facing the global economy.

Shenzhen and Guangzhou real estate prices have risen overnight? The developer denies
On September 2nd, Guangzhou and Shenzhen successively released the "house recognition but not loan recognition" policy on August 30th. According to media reports, shortly after the implementation of Guangzhou's policies, there was a notice online about the preferential recovery and price increase of the Baiyun Poly Longyue Mansion project. Regarding this, Poly Development replied that it is fake. The company's relevant personnel further stated that it was caused by self media and is currently being dealt with, and it is not ruled out that judicial channels may be taken. In Shenzhen, on August 25th, the day the three departments jointly issued a notice, it was rumored online that a leading real estate company in Longhua District had launched a new project and quickly issued a document stating that they wanted to reclaim the discount on the new project, which was equivalent to a "disguised" price increase. On August 31st, a real estate agent near the property told reporters that the property still maintains its original discount level.
