UK: EV Design & Tyres Damage Environment – New Research Finds! (8.11.2026)

08/11/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

While EVs wear out their tyres more quickly, experts say increased degradation does not necessarily mean more pollution – but EV-specific rubber could bring its own set of concerns. Andersson said wear and airborne emissions aren’t equivalent: “A tyre with higher overall wear does not necessarily generate proportionally more airborne particle pollution.” Yet as impending Euro 7 abrasion standards compel manufacturers to create longer-lasting compounds, solving wear may simply shift the hazard. Molden said new compound formulations “will affect the toxicity of the particles”. That chemical profile remains a critical blindspot. University of Surrey professor Prashant Kumar, who studies the impact of air pollution on health, said tyre-wear particles can contain metals and chemicals whose long-term health impact “is not very well understood”. Larger rubber fragments stay on the ground and are washed away by rain but finer particles “could become airborne” and pose a risk. Asked to comment, the BTMA pushed back, saying any changes to materials or product design are subject to “extensive technical evaluation and scrutiny”.

China: Detailed Plans Unveiled for Manned Moon-Landing! (1.11.2026)

01/11/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

Under the scheme, two rockets would separately send the Lanyue lunar lander and Mengzhou crewed spaceship into the Earth-moon transfer orbit, and the two spacecraft would perform a rendezvous and docking in the lunar orbit. Astronauts would then transfer from the Mengzhou spaceship into the Lanyue lander for the descent to the lunar surface and subsequent scientific work.

Wang said the approach matches China’s existing technical capabilities and infrastructure, and the separate development of the spaceship and lunar lander can help standardize production and support the formation of a long-term family of vehicles.

While the plan also presents considerable challenges, Wang said the new system for mobilizing resources nationwide is the fundamental advantage for addressing them.

China: Respectful Okinawan People Return to Their Ancetral Shrines in Beijing! (28.10.2026)

As far as I am aware, the Ryukyu Islands (Okinawa being largest) has been a distant Vassal State of China since as far back as the Sui Dynasty (581–618 CE). In other words, in return for political recognition and an annual tribute – China would militarily protect Ryukyu – as well as establish trade, cultural, and political links. Indeed, many hundreds of Chinese people settled on the islands of Ryukyu over the centuries (bringing their culture, language, and philosophy) – with hundreds of Okinawans visiting China to learn things such as martial arts. What the Japanese now call “Karate” – is actually transplanted Chinese gongfu styles modified to suit the new environment. Of course, there are “indigenous” Ryukyu Islanders whose DNA is not related to “China” or “Japan” – with others being from Japan. Okinawans of Chinese ethnic and cultural origin should be permitted to exhibit their identity freely – without fear of persecution or censure. During WWII – the Imperial Japanese used the Okinawan people as human shields when the US invaded (the Japanese did this because they have no respect for Chinese people – and they view the Okinawans as “Chinese”). Indeed, the Americans glorified in the murdering of these people who were stuck between two lunatic powers – even “filming” the killing of unarmed Okinawan women and children.

China: Communist Party of China (CPC) Places “People’s Well-Being” at the Heart of “Self-Governance”! (28.10.2026)

28/10/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

The CPC constitution commits the Party to serving the people, and states that it has no special interests of its own apart from those of the working class and the broadest possible majority of the people. Without seeking self-interest, the CPC can keep its spirit of thorough self-reform, and by swiftly detecting and resolving its own problems, the Party can prevent any interest group, power group or privileged stratum from preying on or corrupting its members.

"Memorial Hall of the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea"

DPRK: Respected Comrade Kim Jong Un Visits Dandong City – Liaoning Province of PRC! (27.10.2026)

27/10/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

Pyongyang, October 25 (KCNA) — Respected Comrade Kim Jong Un, General Secretary of the Workers’ Party of Korea and President of the State Affairs of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, visited Dandong City, Liaoning Province of the People’s Republic of China and toured the “Memorial Hall of the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea” on October 24 to mark the 76th anniversary of the entry of the Chinese People’s Volunteers (CPV) into the Korean front.

The memorial hall is a monument to great friendship that tells forever the sacred and excellent history and invincible unity of the DPRK-China friendship and always brings closer the peoples of the two countries, who forged their genuine comradely relations and militant friendship through the realization of the common ideal for socialism and the bloody struggle against the imperialist aggression and have creditably carried forward and developed them century after century and generation after generation.

UK: The History of “Changing the Clocks” [It’s About to Happen]! (23.10. 2026)

25/10/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

The campaign for British Summer Time came about at the beginning of the 20th century when parliament passed the Summer Time Act in 1916.

British builder William Willett led the movement, inspired by his love of the outdoors. He advocated for BST in his 1907 ‘Waste of Daylight’ pamphlet to increase opportunities for leisure and help reduce energy costs.

He suggested a plan which included 20-minute changes four Sundays in a row in April and September to minimise disruption to people’s biological clocks, arguing that they would “lose nothing and gain substantially”.

He died in 1915 before his vision would become a reality.

The following year, a simplified version of his proposal – a change of an hour – was introduced as the country suffered from huge coal shortages during the First World War.

It has undergone some changes: During the Second World War, Britain kept clocks one hour ahead of GMT through the winter and, from 1941, adopted British Double Summer Time, placing clocks two hours ahead of GMT during summer months. It was then returned to GMT at the end of summer 1945.
