China Planning To Have 100,000 Flying Cars In Just 6 Years

Dec 9 2024

China is working on revolutionising the country’s urban transportation throughout the next 6 years with 100,000 electric vertical takeoff and landing vehicles (eVTOLs), in other words – flying cars!

The cities’ groundwork for this airborne transformation is currently in the works and the Chinese Low Altitude Economic Alliance stated that the majority of ground facilities, as well as air traffic networks, will be finalised in the next 2 to 3 years. This will allow the production and commercialisation of such vehicles in mass by as early as 2026.

The use of eVTOLs is already transforming areas such as environmental monitoring and grid inspections and widespread use for urban transportation, tourism, emergency rescue operations, logistics and agriculture is set to be revolutionising.

At present, these futuristic cars come at the price of £1 million, however by 2030 they’re expected to become more accessible in the luxury market
costing anywhere from £200,000 and £300,000. China’s economy is heading towards a “golden decade” as this sector is expected to grow to a staggering £326 billion by 2030.

Authorities and eVTOLs manufacturers are working on regulations to ensure safe operations and artificial intelligence and technology will be crucial for this. Experts explained that although this technology is there, companies and authorities are still working on integrating such vehicles into our air space.

Farrugia’s exceptional performance in challenging conditions on Merseyside proved instrumental, as she scored both goals in United’s 2-0 win.

Battling the remnants of Storm Darragh at Jericho Lane, the match began cautiously, with both sides struggling to create clear opportunities.

However, Farrugia broke the deadlock. Cutting inside from range, she unleashed a stunning strike that soared over the goalkeeper, hitting the underside of the crossbar before finding the net.

After the break, United continued to push forward, and while Monique Robinson narrowly missed doubling the lead, Farrugia capitalized on a well-executed team play. Eva Butler displayed resilience in driving into the box under defensive pressure and set up Farrugia for an easy tap-in, sealing her brace.

Shein & Temu Ordered To Recall Children’s Shoes Due To Harmful Chemicals

Dec 9 2024

The Malta Competition and Consumer Affairs Authority (MCCAA) has ordered the recall of five children’s footwear products sold by online platforms Shein and Temu.

Laboratory tests revealed that these items violated the REACH Regulation 1907/2006 due to excessive levels of hazardous chemicals, including cadmium, lead, phthalates, and paraffins.

These substances, while commonly used in materials for flexibility, flame retardancy, or coloration, are strictly regulated due to potential health risks.

The MCCAA’s Technical Regulations Division tested 10 children’s products, including T-shirts, matching sets, slippers, and rain boots.

While no issues were found in the clothing items, all five tested footwear products failed to meet the regulatory standards.

Consumers in Malta who purchased these recalled items are urged to stop using them immediately. Sellers are required to contact affected buyers to arrange refunds.

The MCCAA encourages consumers with concerns or questions to email [email protected].

This recall emphasises the importance of ensuring children’s products meet strict safety standards, and the MCCAA remains committed to protecting consumers from harmful goods. A detailed list of the recalled items is available from the authority.
