Ho Chi Minh City Implements Solar-Powered Trash Cans to Promote Waste Sorting

Nouvelle technologie révolutionnaire développée pour réduire les émissions de carbone

A revolutionary new technology has been developed to reduce carbon emissions.

District 11 will install 84 solar-powered trash cans on sidewalks, in the yards of state agencies, and at schools.

The current public trash cans are set to be gradually replaced by green rubbish bins.

In the first quarter of 2019, the administration of District 5 launched a pilot program to install 21 hi-tech trash cans at 10 schools.

The district has decided to extend its pilot program this year, owing to the positive results of its implementation.

These bins have two compartments, one for organic waste and the other for other types of rubbish.

In the first quarter of 2023, twenty-six solar-powered trash cans were installed at various parks and the headquarters of state agencies in the district.

In early June, the district will install 74 hi-tech rubbish bins equipped with three compartments for recyclable waste, food waste, and other garbage at administrative agencies, hospitals, schools, bus stops, and on sidewalks.

These trash bins have been outfitted with solar panels to power advertisement signs and instructions, making it easier for people to throw their trash into the correct compartment.

Information regarding environmental protection can be found on hi-tech bins as well.

The company will provide free installation of solar-powered trash cans over a period of 10 years.

Many areas of Ho Chi Minh City, such as Ben Nghe Ward and Pham Ngu Lao Ward in District 1, and Tan Thoi Hiep Ward in District 12, are facing challenges with waste sorting.

Districts are classifying waste into two types, organic waste and other, whereas the government’s Decree 54 stipulates that waste must be sorted into three types – recyclable garbage, food leftovers, and other solid trash.

Who Is Anton Zeilinger – One Of The Three Nobel Winner Of Quantum Physics?

Image
Photo: Wikipedia Anton Zeilinger is a professor of physics at the University of Vienna and a Senior Scientist at the Institute for Quantum Optics and Quantum Information at the Austrian Academy of Sciences. His research group has demonstrated a phenomenon called quantum teleportation, which makes it possible to move a quantum state from one particle to one at a distance. For Anders Irbäck, Chair of the Nobel Committee for Physics, “It has become increasingly clear that a new kind of quantum technology is emerging. We can see that the laureates’ work with entangled states is of great importance, even beyond the fundamental questions about the interpretation of quantum mechanics“. Together with Anton Zeilinger, John Clauser and Alain Aspect were also awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics 2022 “for experiments with entangled photons, establishing the violation of Bell inequalities and pioneering quantum information science“.

Giant calligraphy hat breaks record as largest in Vietnam

Image
The work has been done on the initiative of Dao Thi Cam Suong, a calligrapher from Can Tho. The giant conical hat is made up of a total of 540 smaller conical hats, with calligraphy written on top. Suong has spent 89 days writing the calligraphy and finding connections to produce the finished product. The words written on the giant hat include sightseeing spots in Can Tho, folk songs, proverbs, poems, and the names of various provinces and cities across the country. She shares that the purpose of her work is to honour the beauty of the fatherland through pieces of calligraphy. Indeed, the giant hat is created from 540 small conical hats which themselves represent the country’s 54 ethnic minority groups. The diametre of the giant hat spans for more than eight metres, with the length from the tip to the brim roughly four meters and the length from the tip of the cone to the ground roughly six metres. The work has 14 rows of conical ha...
