Stranded whale rescue: A miraculous achievement

Leave a comment

BEIJING, May 6, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — A news report by China.org.cn on a stranded whale rescue:

Recently, a 20-hour livestream had millions of Chinese netizens on the edge of their seats. This special live broadcast was focused on attempts to rescue a whale stranded on a beach in Zhejiang province.

On the morning of April 19, as fisherman Yang Genhe and his peers were preparing to head out to sea, they spotted a sperm whale measuring around 20 meters in length lying in the shallows. They immediately contacted the local maritime and fishery authorities, and within just two hours, whale experts across China and local professional rescuers had been rallied.

Yet, to be honest, successful attempts to rescue sperm whales of such a huge size are exceedingly rare around the world, let alone in China. For that reason, experts initially believed that the rescue was a long shot.

The whale’s life was at stake as the tide went out for six hours during the daytime. Rescuers repeatedly fetched buckets of water and doused the whale in a bid to keep it alive. Many fishermen also showed up at the beach and used their bare hands to splash water on the whale as there weren’t enough buckets. This was a very touching sight. They gently poured water over the whale’s body, being careful to avoid its nostrils and eyes, so that the stranded animal wouldn’t choke on sand. In the meantime, bamboo poles, netting and quilts were brought to the beach to construct a screen for the whale against sunlight and help keep it wet. Veterinarians also hooked the whale up to an IV drip. These efforts continued until the tide returned.

When the tide rose later that evening, the rescue team managed to tow the whale little by little into the water. People were surprised to see the sperm whale gradually regain its energy and blow a large column of water when it reached deeper waters.

The most touching thing during the whole rescue process was that everyone involved gave 100% effort, despite there being such little hope. They demonstrated those most basic of human emotions, namely, reverence for all living creatures and the instinct to cherish life.

In fact, whale strandings are relatively common around the world. Experts have made numerous investigations into why they happen, with theories such as noise pollution and environmental contamination having constantly been proved. From this perspective, growing public attention in China toward the stranding and rescue of whales also reflects people’s introspection and awareness toward issues concerning marine eco-system.

Yang Genhe said: “For generations we have been fed by the ocean, protecting the ocean and repaying its kindness are our greatest wishes.” An attitude like that is exactly what makes the miracle possible. When we treat the ocean the way we want to be treated, we bring hope to more lives as well as ourselves.

It is a response to the rising demand for China’s vetted knowledge about food security, nutrition improvement, poverty alleviation and rural transformation. Courses offered in Cloud School reflect WFP China COE’s work on the four thematic areas, as well as the value chain development in rice, Juncao and cassava. Certificates of completion are awarded to those who successfully finish them.

Chinese home appliance manufacturer Changhong has established a presence at the exhibition with its full series of products, including a lineup of environmentally responsible, 5G-enabled home appliances as well as the M8-series TV, the Eva model air conditioner, and the Space Pro refrigerator and washing machine.

Changhong will host several new product launches and live streaming events, in addition to displaying its product lineups in several VR exhibition halls and virtual exhibition venues, enabling interested buyers to get a full and detailed run-down on each product and on the product’s features. Being an online event, all exhibits and exhibitors will be available 24 hours per day. Buyers can view products, engage in negotiations and order products at any time from any time zone, removing time and geographical restrictions.

Changhong has utilized its understanding of the Internet of Things (IoT), big data, and 5G to product R&D and production to produce trend-setting products that improve the user experience, such as the M8-series smart TV, the first-of-its-kind air conditioner Eva model that can respond to voice commands in multiple languages without needing to be connected to an online device, and the Space Pro refrigerator and washing machine, both of which are equipped with the world’s leading ultra-thin technologies. 

Despite the various uncertainties worldwide, Changhong’s business outside its home market of China remains resilient. In 2021, the manufacturer’s overseas business broke all previous records, with ex-China home appliance sales revenue climbing by more than 10% year-over-year, while sales of CHiQ branded products jumped some 20%.

CARDIO COMBINES MOVE-TO-EARN & PLAY-TO-EARN TO BRIDGE REAL-WORLD FITNESS WITH METAVERSE ACTIVITY FOR 500 MILLION GLOBAL USERS OF FITNESS

Leave a comment

INCHEON, South Korea, April 14, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Cardio (Cardio Healthcare Inc.) is launching Metabike, the world’s first metaverse & gaming integrated home fitness bike for use on tablet & smart TV. This next-gen indoor bike features built-in game controllers to give users full gaming functionality and IoT pedals which track real speed, torque, and workout distance to control the movement of the in-game avatar.

Metabike combines Move-to-Earn (M2E) with Play-to-Earn (P2E), rewarding users up to $30 per month in Cardio Points for use in-app on healthcare discounts, products & services with the option to swap Cardio Points for its ERC20-based crypto asset Cardiocoin (CRDC) [listing on MEXC Global on April 19th, UTC 11:00].

The Cardio HUB platform (tablet & smart TV) pairs to Metabike via Bluetooth and features over 50 games & content from world-class developers at launch with monthly content library updates (think “Netflix” for exercise).

Founder & CEO Daniel Park says “People can exercise on Metabike while competing with global users in racing games, ride through scenic nature, watch their favorite shows on OTT platforms, and immerse themselves on leading metaverse platforms like Roblox, all while tracking their workout, receiving rewards for fitness, and having actual fun while exercising.”

Metabike combines Move-to-Earn (M2E) with Play-to-Earn (P2E), rewarding users up to $30 per month in Cardio Points for use in-app on healthcare discounts, products & services with the option to swap Cardio Points for its ERC20-based crypto asset Cardiocoin (CRDC) [listing on MEXC Global on April 19th, UTC 11:00].

Cardio’s patented technology (in the form of IoT bike pedal) has accurate power sensing without using prohibitively expensive torque sensors.  The IoT pedal attaches to virtually any indoor bike, transforming legacy & ODM equipment into smart bikes that measure actual workout distance, calories burned, and access Cardio HUB.

Cardio’s smart treadmill BETA service (Metarun, at 20 select gyms in Korea) has verified 43,744 Km of exercise distance through 25,712 workouts over 7,449 hours of exercise, and users have received rewards worth around $10,000.

Cardio gets its name from the word cardiovascular, which takes the lion’s share of healthcare costs and is the focus of preventive healthcare.  With the advent of metaverse, more people will exercise less, letting their fingers do the moving inside these digital spaces.  Cardio’s Metabike & Metarun bridge “real-world” exercise with metaverse activity by combining the benefits of fitness with the fun of digital content (a nod to the equipment from the movie “Ready Player One”).

About Cardio Healthcare (Silicon Valley & Korea)

The only Move(&Play)-to-Earn company that is cheat-proof, verifies & rewards only real fitness data, and provides that foundational data for use in healthcare (i.e. insurance companies).  Metabike & Metarun are the bridge between real fitness & metaverse activity.

The VBC features four state-of-the-art and next-gen technologies that foster inventive idea exchange and brings to life a modern vision that highlights an organization’s strengths and unpacks specific challenges and constraints by designing a customized roadmap with solutions that address one’s top business priorities. 

The four demo zones showcase the possibilities with technology around the areas of:

  • Advanced IT in a digital hub for the future of work
  • Accelerating the digital employee experience
  • Moving towards Zero IT and Tanzu Labs
  • Enabling innovation with Tanzu Labs

Connected to all of VMware’s other VBCs across the globe, the center also allows for businesses to connect with technical experts and teams from anywhere in the world to unpack technical constraints and design customized technology roadmaps with glove-fit solutions. This will enable business leaders to test current technologies, concepts, and pilot projects before official rollouts, serving as a secure innovation sandbox to build new innovative concepts and transformation roadmaps.

Expanding on its commitment to being an innovation and inclusivity center of excellence for the region, VMware also recently reopened its Singapore office redesigned with versatile, new facilities that focus on collaboration and autonomy to provide employees with greater options for how and where they work. With sustainability and inclusivity as a big focus, the WELL-certified office features air purifiers, recycling areas, yoga rooms with lockers, a jamming studio, and maternity rooms on select floors.
