Yesterday, the State Council Press Office released the white paper "Building a Community of Cyberspace Destiny Together". When introducing the white paper at today’s (8th) regular press conference, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian pointed out that everyone is sharing weal and woe in cyberspace. We live in an era full of challenges and hopes. It is the common responsibility of the international community to develop, use and manage the Internet well.

　　Zhao Lijian said that at present, problems such as unbalanced development, imperfect rules and unreasonable order in the Internet field are increasingly prominent, and cyber hegemonism poses a new threat to world peace and development. Individual countries use the Internet as a tool to maintain hegemony, abuse information technology to interfere in other countries’ internal affairs and suppress their scientific and technological development and cooperation. Some countries engage in "small circles" to create division and confrontation in cyberspace, and "use the international rules of cyberspace reached by the United Nations, or abandon them if they disagree". China insists on mutual respect, seeking common ground while reserving differences, and everyone’s affairs are handled through consultation. We resolutely oppose "zero-sum game", bullying, unilateralism, extreme pressure, and "building a wall and setting up a base" and "decoupling and breaking the chain".

　　The Internet is the common home of mankind, and the fruits of development should be shared by all. Building a community of destiny in cyberspace is a correct choice proved by practice. Not long ago, the First Committee of the UN General Assembly once again passed an information security resolution with a high vote, which once again proved that the above concept has been widely recognized by the international community. As the largest developing country in the world and the country with the largest number of netizens, China adheres to the people-centered development idea, mutual benefit and win-win, and advocates making the achievements of Internet development better benefit all mankind, working together to build a community of cyberspace destiny and create a better future for mankind.

CCTV News:The reporter learned from the Ministry of Natural Resources that the "China Sea Ocean Heat Wave Forecast Product" independently developed by the National Marine Environmental Forecasting Center was officially put into operation on May 12th.It will timely and accurately predict the occurrence, development, scope and intensity of ocean heat wave events, provide key data and decision-making services for scientific response to extreme ocean heat wave events, and help prevent marine disasters.

China’s self-developed "China Sea Ocean Heat Wave Forecast Product" covers all the jurisdictional waters of China, and can timely and accurately predict the occurrence, development, influence scope and intensity of ocean heat wave events, provide key data and decision-making services for government decision-making departments to scientifically respond to extreme ocean heat wave events, effectively improve the response ability of marine management departments and fishery practitioners to extreme ocean heat wave events, and take timely and reasonable measures to reduce losses and reduce the damage to marine ecosystems.

Wan Liying, director of the temperature and salt flow forecasting room of the National Marine Environmental Forecasting Center of the Ministry of Natural Resources, said that the first country (France) to release ocean heat waves only has products of ocean heat waves, and we are products that increase the intensity of ocean heat waves. The impact of ocean heat waves on marine ecology and our economy is a relatively important parameter.

A number of marine disaster early warning and forecasting products were released.

In addition, the Ministry of Natural Resources has released a number of marine disaster early warning and forecasting products.

The National Satellite Ocean Application Center of the Ministry of Natural Resources released the China ocean color satellite images of the Yellow Sea and the remote sensing index data set, which provided scientific and technological support for the emergency treatment of marine disasters such as green tide, red tide and oil spill at sea.　

China is one of the countries most seriously affected by marine disasters in the world. In recent years, the Ministry of Natural Resources, in conjunction with various departments, has continuously promoted the construction of an integrated marine three-dimensional observation network, established and improved a collaborative marine disaster early warning business system, implemented the "chip" project of marine forecasting, and developed a full-spectrum autonomous marine early warning and forecasting numerical model system. With the continuous efforts of many measures, China’s ability to perceive marine disasters has been continuously improved, and the prevention and control of marine disasters has achieved remarkable results. In 2023, the direct economic losses of marine disasters nationwide decreased by 49% compared with the average of the previous five years.

At the same time, coastal areas continue to promote marine disaster prevention and mitigation. Among them, Zhejiang Province has built a closed-loop prevention and control system of marine disaster risk, and its disaster prevention capability has been comprehensively improved, and the early warning accuracy rate has increased to over 84%.

　　An explosion occurred at a factory near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania on the morning of the 11th, killing two people.

　　CCTV reporter Liu Xu:Behind me is a factory of American steel company that exploded on the 11th. When the explosion occurred, people within a few kilometers nearby heard the thunderous explosion and saw the smoke that covered the sky. On the morning of the 12th local time, we came here for a visit. Through the picture behind me, we can see that there are very clear burnt marks in the factory. The fire department is still cleaning up, and relevant departments are also conducting preliminary investigations. It is reported that the factory is in stable condition at present.

　　On the 12th, Pennsylvania Governor Shapiro said that the current priority is still to carry out safety clean-up work and provide assistance to the families of the victims. At the same time, they also asked American steel companies to assist in the investigation.

　　According to American media reports, the factory involved is the largest coking plant in North America, employing about thousands of workers. The factory had explosion accidents in 2009 and 2010, which caused casualties and long-term pollution problems.

　　CCTV reporter Liu Xu:After this explosion, local trade unions and people called for a comprehensive investigation. Environmental organizations also said that,The explosion is not an isolated incident, but a continuation of the lack of safety and supervision, and it requires an immediate assessment of whether the factory can continue to operate.

　　Local residents hope to thoroughly investigate the factory explosion.

　　CCTV reporters found that some houses were hit by the explosion not far from the factory.

　　CCTV reporter Liu Xu:It can be seen that the house was damaged by the impact of the explosion. This is a house made of Shi Zhuan and cement. In front of the porch, you can see obvious cracks.

　　The owner of this house is Adrian. She has lived here for more than 20 years. In her memory, there are production safety accidents in this factory every few months, which makes people living here feel very unsafe. In her daughter’s memory, this explosion is the fourth safety accident this year.

　　Adrian, a resident near the factory:At about 10: 45, I heard a huge explosion. My house shook violently, the whole house shook and the bed shook. I jumped up. I thought a car had hit my house. I came out to see that there was no car, so I went to see the alarm and found a 911 call coming in, saying that there was an explosion in the factory below. Then I drove down to have a look and saw a lot of smoke.

　　Adrian said that this explosion is likely to be the same as before, and the final investigation results will once again conceal many real situations. As a resident living near the factory, she is often affected by factory safety accidents, which she can’t accept.

　　Adrian, a resident near the factory:This industry often hides the truth of many accidents. I don’t think companies will tell us the truth. I know they won’t. Companies hide many things, including American steel companies, and will only tell us what we want to hear.

　　Adrian’s daughter doesn’t live near the factory, but she is not surprised by the explosion. She just wants an answer, how to learn a lesson and avoid such a safety accident again.

　　Adrian’s daughter Tracy:I’ve always been worried because this industry is accompanied by risks. When these factories are built near residential areas, the risk is higher, and even there is the risk of chemical pollution. The whole community is worried about the impact, which is what I have been worried about. I think it is the most important thing how we can avoid such safety accidents from happening again.
