Lululemon Athletica Inc said products currently sold in China do not contain per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), amid rising consumer concern following a Texas investigation into the potential presence of toxic chemicals in its apparel. 運動服飾品牌露露樂蒙（Lululemon Athletica Inc）近日表示，目前在中國市場銷售的產品均不含全氟和多氟烷基物質（PFAS）。此前美國得克薩斯州對其服裝產品可能含有毒化學物質展開調查，引發消費者廣泛關注。 Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has launched an investigation into the company, issuing a Civil Investigative Demand to Lululemon's US unit to examine whether it misled consumers about product safety, quality, and potential health effects, according to a statement released April 13. 得克薩斯州總檢察長肯·帕克斯頓4月13日發布聲明稱，已對露露樂蒙啟動調查程序，並向該公司美國分部發出民事調查令，重點核查其在產品安全、質量及潛在健康影響方面是否存在誤導消費者的行為。 In response to inquiries, Lululemon China said it "always places the health and safety of it...

Beijing's municipal authorities say they will not cut down the city's mature poplar and willow trees despite the annual "catkin nuisance", arguing that the ecological benefits of the towering trees cannot be easily replaced. 北京市有關部門表示，儘管每年都會出現"楊柳飛絮困擾"，但不會砍伐城市中已長成的楊樹和柳樹，理由是這些高大樹木帶來的生態效益難以輕易替代。 "Because of their outstanding advantages — fast growth, dense shade, strong carbon sequestration, and low cost — large-scale or onetime removal of mature poplar and willow trees is not feasible," said Jiang Yingshu, director of the science and technology division at the Beijing Municipal Forestry and Parks Bureau. 北京市園林綠化局科技處處長薑英淑表示："楊樹柳樹具有生長迅速、遮蔭效果好、固碳能力強、成本低廉等顯著優勢，對已成年的楊樹柳樹進行大規模或一次性移除並不可行。" Jiang noted that trees with a diameter of 30 centimeters are typically 30 to 40 years old. Replacing them with saplings of five to six centimeters would take anot...
Meeting: Spain supports enhanced dialogue 會晤：西班牙支持加強對話 China and Spain expressed on Tuesday their commitment to advancing their ties with strategic resolve and vowed to work together to uphold multilateralism amid threats to the world order. 4月14日，中國與西班牙表示將以戰略定力推進雙邊關系發展，並誓言在世界秩序面臨威脅之際攜手維護多邊主義。 The pledges were made during talks between President Xi Jinping and Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez, who is on a five-day official visit to Beijing — his fourth visit to China in four consecutive years. Sanchez will wrap up his tour on Wednesday. 國家主席習近平與西班牙首相佩德羅·桑切斯在京舉行會談時作出上述承諾。這是桑切斯連續第四年訪華，其為期五天的正式訪問將於15日結束。 Noting that today's turbulent world faces the struggle between right and might, Xi called on both China and Spain, as countries that value principle and moral integrity, to enhance communication, consolidate mutual trust and strengthen cooperation to oppose t...
Washington's announcement of a naval blockade targeting maritime traffic to and from Iranian ports — halting "all passage" linked to Iran — marks a new escalation in a crisis already teetering on the edge. Although the US Central Command insists that freedom of navigation for non-Iranian ports remains intact, such distinctions collapse quickly in a narrow waterway. Reports describe a near standstill in shipping. 華盛頓宣布對進出伊朗港口的海上交通實施海上封鎖，停止與伊朗相關的"一切通行"，標志著這場本已岌岌可危的危機出現新的升級。儘管美國中央司令部堅稱，前往非伊朗港口的航行自由不受影響，但在狹窄水道中，這種區分很快便名存實亡。據報道，航運已幾乎陷入停滯。 The result is a paradox: a waterway Washington vowed to reopen for the world is now closed even tighter by the US itself. 這種結果顯然是一種悖論：美國曾誓言要為世界重新開放的航道，如今卻被美國自己封鎖得更加嚴實。 This escalation comes at a delicate moment. The first round of face-to-face talks between Washington and Tehran in Islama...
