｜South Korean Scientists Introduce "Beef Rice" Claimed to Be Nutritious and Carbon-Reducing
A South Korean research team has created a new type of "beef rice" that combines lab-grown meat with staple food, by encapsulating animal cells on rice grains in a culture dish. Besides the nutrition from the rice itself, it contains additional protein and fat while also reducing its carbon footprint.

｜Beitou Incineration Plant's Smart Heat Recovery System Saves 1.2 Million kWh of Electricity Annually for Heated Swimming Pools
Taipei's Beitou Incineration Plant has introduced a "smart heat pump system" at the Zhumei Sports Park, recycling waste heat generated from the swimming pool, underground parking lot, and feedback facilities to enhance heating efficiency for the swimming pool, SPA pool, and shower rooms. The cold energy produced is utilized for indoor air conditioning and dehumidification, resulting in annual electricity savings of about 1.2 million kWh and a carbon reduction of approximately 594 metric tons.
