一 | The Thalasseus bernsteini (Chinese crested tern), known as the "mythical bird," is one of the world's rarest seabirds. Since 2013, Zhejiang has been carrying out efforts to attract the species to suitable habitats and restore its population through artificial measures. After more than a decade of sustained efforts, the number of adult Thalasseus bernsteini in Zhejiang now accounts for more than 85 percent of the global population. Zhejiang is making every effort to build itself into a province with a higher level of ecological development. The conservation of the "mythical bird" is a prime example. Biodiversity conservation is not only a key focus in Zhejiang's pursuit of higher-quality ecological development, but has also gradually become a new calling card for the province's green development on the international stage. When Summer Returns, jointly produced by Zhejiang Provincial Center for Environmental Education and Communication and the China News Service Zhejiang Branch, was released online today. The documentary takes viewers to the islands to hear the stories behind the conservation of the "mythical bird."
。 A levee breach in central China's Henan Province was successfully sealed on Friday night after nearly two days of emergency repair work, local authorities said.
The breach, measuring more than 40 meters wide, occurred along the Beiru River in Jiaxian County, Pingdingshan City, on Wednesday night after heavy rainfall caused a section of the levee to give way, forcing the relocation of more than 2,000 people.
No casualties have been reported so far.
Due to the narrow road atop the levee, heavy construction vehicles were unable to reach the site. Rescue workers formed human chains to pass gravel-filled sandbags to the breach, while drones and rescue boats were deployed to transport materials.
The operation came amid widespread flooding triggered by heavy rainfall brought by the remnants of Typhoon Dolphin, the year's 13th typhoon, which has affected multiple parts of Henan Province in recent days.
In response, the National Commission for Disaster Prevention, Reduction and Relief activated a Level-IV national disaster relief emergency response for Henan on Friday. The central government has allocated 30,000 items of relief supplies, including folding beds, summer quilts and family emergency kits, to support relief and resettlement efforts in Zhoukou, Xuchang and other affected areas.
