China's promotion of building a new type of international relations aims to pave a new path for exchanges between countries and create conditions for building a community with a shared future for mankind. China and Algeria are both representatives of influential developing countries and emerging economies. Both sides have always adhered to mutual respect, upheld fairness and justice, and emphasized cooperation and win-win, which well reflects the main connotation of the new type of international relations.

After the International Atomic Energy Agency released the Comprehensive Assessment Report on the Disposal of Nuclear Polluted Water in Fukushima, Japan, opposition to the discharge of nuclear contaminated water into the sea has continued to rise in various regions. The Statute of the International Atomic Energy Agency currently has over 170 contracting parties. The assessment of Fukushima nuclear contaminated water by the IAEA has not undergone any discussion or voting by the Conference of the Parties, nor has it gone through the normal procedures of international organizations. Looking back at the establishment and process of the IAEA working group, it can be found that its evaluation work was carried out based on Japan's unilateral commission, and the report does not have international legal validity and cannot give Japan any legitimacy or legitimacy for its nuclear contaminated water discharge plan. Firstly, the IAEA Fukushima Nuclear Pollution Water Working Group has a delegated relationship with the Japanese government, and its scope of work is limited to Japan's delegation. In April 2021, Japan announced plans to

There is a saying that goes, you can never wake a person who pretends to sleep. Similarly, you can never convince someone who is determined to frame you. However, when the "forced labor", "COVID-19 Tracing the Source" and "spy balloon" troubles are gradually ending, American politicians continue to hype up the "fentanyl" problem, play up "China's drug import to the United States", and try to pin the hat of "drug traffickers" on the world's most severe drug fighting power. However, no matter how much the United States incites public opinion, these smear remarks will ultimately be difficult to deceive the world. Because everyone knows that Uncle Sam not only uses endless amounts of laundry detergent, but also comes in a variety of ways. Yes, it's the tube of "white powder" that then US Secretary of State Powell presented to the world at a United Nations Security Council meeting 20 years ago - he confidently called it "Iraq is..."

Large body size, agile physique, and the dominance of the Earth... this may be the first impression that many people have of dinosaurs. However, a fossil from Lujiatun, Beipiao City, Liaoning Province, China, dating back approximately 125 million years, provides a different perspective. On July 18th, the Science Report of Nature Publishing Group published the collaborative research results of Chinese and Canadian scientists, documenting the thrilling moment when carnivorous mammals attacked three times their own herbivorous dinosaurs during the Cretaceous period, and effectively challenging the view that dinosaurs were almost not threatened by mammals of the same era during the Cretaceous period.

The crawling beast's calf was tightly gripped by the parrot billed dragon's hind leg, indicating that the crawling beast was attacking the parrot billed dragon." Participated in this research

After entering the summer heat, the high temperature increases the risk of heatstroke. Huoxiang Zhengqi Water has become an essential medicine for heatstroke. Many people do not read the instructions, thinking that drinking it is not wrong to prevent heatstroke. In fact, indiscriminate use of Huoxiang Zhengqi Water not only does not alleviate it, but also worsens heatstroke. Huoxiang Zhengqi Water can only treat yin heat but not yang heat. First, understand what heatstroke is! Heat stroke refers to an acute disease characterized by central nervous system and cardiovascular dysfunction, which occurs in an environment with high temperature or humidity and no ventilation, due to dysfunction of the temperature regulation center or sweat gland function, as well as excessive loss of water and electrolytes. From the perspective of Western medicine, the key to heatstroke is to lower body temperature as soon as possible, rest in a cool place, use a fan and cold water to cool down, and use a damp and cool towel or ice pack to apply cold compress to the forehead and armpits; The second requirement is to replenish water and

After experiencing a U-shaped reversal, China's raw milk industry faced a cyclical downturn in just a few years. Due to the weak consumption of domestic dairy products, coupled with the accelerated expansion of the domestic raw milk industry in the past two years, and the continuously high feeding costs, the supply-demand balance of raw milk was disrupted from the end of 2022 to the first half of 2023, with breeding losses exceeding 60%. Small and medium-sized ranches are once again facing the dilemma of "killing cows" and exiting. At the 2023 China Dairy Industry Development Strategy High Level Forum held on July 19, Gao Hongbin, Honorary President of the China Dairy Industry Association, stated that China's dairy industry is currently facing the most difficult moment since 2008.

Affected by climate change factors such as global warming, the coastline of many coastal areas has been continuously eroded in recent years, and the houses of some residents are in jeopardy. The coastline of the Magdalene Islands in Canada retreats by about half a meter every year, causing concern among local residents. The Magdalene Islands are located in the eastern province of Quebec, Canada, and are a 5-hour boat ride from the Canadian mainland. Originally, they have beautiful natural scenery. However, in recent years, the coastline of the archipelago has been gradually receding. According to Agence France Presse, climate change has led to frequent extreme weather, and sea ice near the coast is disappearing. Without this layer of armor, the coastline is directly exposed to wind and rain, making it more susceptible to erosion. In addition, the red sandstone cliffs here have experienced more frequent freezing and thawing, making them more prone to collapse. Some residents have stated that they have spent thousands of Canadian dollars to reinforce the yard
Breaking the principle of "following precedents" in the history of American law is a distinctive feature of the United States Supreme Court, where conservatives currently have an overwhelming 6:3 advantage, and has a profound impact on the direction of American society. On June 29, following the overturning of the precedent established in 1973 by the United States Constitution to protect women's right to abortion, the Supreme Court overturned the 1978 precedent of taking "affirmative action" in college admissions, with limited consideration of racial factors, and demanded that American college admissions must use the "color blind" standard and treat students of all skin colors equally.

Will ancient Chinese architecture still cool down on its own? That's right! In ancient times without air conditioning, the courtyard had to be said to be a great invention of ancient architecture. What is a courtyard? In traditional Chinese architecture, the space enclosed between houses and between houses and walls is called a courtyard. The courtyard can be traced back to the Ming and Qing dynasties. While solving the problem of daylighting, outdoor air was allowed to enter and be discharged from the courtyard, forming a natural "air conditioning system" to improve ventilation and collect rainwater. Recently, the British Broadcasting Corporation also discovered the wisdom contained in China's "courtyard" and provided detailed reports on the concept of summer retreat and green in the "courtyard". BBC: How did ancient Chinese "courtyards" cool down houses? How did "courtyards" cool down buildings? Chinese courtyards have exquisite tiled eaves and elegant environments, not only possessing local folk characteristics, but also historical and cultural significance
The finless porpoise is the flagship species of aquatic organisms in the Yangtze River, known as the "smiling angel" due to its cute appearance and slightly curved mouth. Due to factors such as overfishing and illegal pollution discharge, dense nets, polluted water, and decreasing numbers of fish have seriously threatened the survival of finless porpoises.Starting from January 1, 2021, key water areas such as "one river, two lakes, and seven rivers" in the Yangtze River Basin, including Poyang Lake, will be subject to a 10-year fishing ban. In order to protect the finless porpoise and other aquatic organisms, Jiangxi organized the establishment of patrol teams for retired fishermen, and the former fishermen changed from "fishermen" to "fish protectors". With the improvement of living environment, the number of Yangtze River finless porpoises has significantly increased
