LATEST DATA | China's solar panel exports rise to record levels ☀️🇨🇳
China exported a record 25 GW of solar panels in August, bringing the total to 167 GW so far this year.
This is on top of nearly 300 GW of solar capacity installed domestically already in 2025.

Even modest daily step counts are associated with health benefits.
7000 per day= sizeable risk reductions across most outcomes, compared with 2000 steps per day.
Even though risk continued to decrease beyond 7000 steps per day, it plateaued for some outcomes.🧪

Older mothers and the use of reproductive technologies tend to increase the likelihood of twin births, which is why you see this pattern.
