China: Driver Narrowly Avoids Crash as Truck Container Tips Over

On June 19, 2023, in Xi’an, Shaanxi province, a Chinese driver narrowly avoided a serious crash when a box truck attempted to pass under a height restriction and its container suddenly tipped over onto a city road. Video shows the container tilting and collapsing sideways as a small passenger car traveling just behind reacted instantly, swerving and accelerating through a narrow gap moments before the truck body hit the ground. The container crashed down seconds later, blocking the road, while the car escaped unharmed. No injuries were reported.

Xinjiang, a region rich in solar and wind energy resources, has vigorously developed the new energy industry in recent years, accelerating the construction of large-scale wind and photovoltaic power base projects. A 750-kilovolt (kV) "power expressway loop," the country's largest of its kind, has taken shape throughout Xinjiang, providing strong support for efficient energy allocation. Today, about one third of the electricity transmitted in Xinjiang comes from clean energy sources such as wind and solar power. It transmits over 270 billion kilowatt-hours of green electricity to other regions. Besides, an increasing number of companies are developing clean energy in Xinjiang, driving the region's green development.

Early 2025 Harvest in The Midst of The French Wine Crisis

Early 2025 Harvest in The Midst of The French Wine Crisis

Illustration - Early grape harvest in Aigremont. Gard, France, August 26, 2025. "Obviously, this is bad news..." An understatement: in the midst of the wine crisis, winegrowers saw their hopes of an exemption from customs duties to the United States dashed this Thursday, August 21. French wines will be taxed at 15% – compared to 13.5% since the beginning of the year, and 2.5% previously. Other problems include the decline in consumption, and with global warming, the French grape harvest is starting on average three weeks earlier than in the 1980s, according to INRAE ​​(New window). Rising temperatures – one of the most emblematic markers of climate change – are accelerating vine development, with grape ripening advancing. "There is a phenomenon of amplification of the effect of climate change because the harvest is happening in the middle of summer," confirms Jean-Marc Touzard.
