Taipower announces rolling blackouts again in some areas 台電宣布部分地區再度輪流限電 Taipower issued an emergency power outage notice (緊急限電通知) at 7: 50 p.m., stressing that the demand for electricity continued to rise on Monday. At 7: 30 p.m., consumption reached 34.872 million kilowatts, the company said. In order to maintain the balance between power supply and demand, the system will automatically protect the operation of the equipment, the government-run utility company added. Moreover, due to the lack of water this year, the company estimates that hydropower (水力發電) cannot be brought into play (起作用). 大家可以練習看看英文新聞，因為跟我們息息相關，會增加你看懂的動機。 很怕晚上停電熱到睡不著，我跟兒子都準備了充電電風扇。三個行動電源已經全部充好了。大家都做了什麼準備呢？我是做好今天要洗三次冷水澡的準備了😝 全文見中國郵報 #chinapost https://chinapost.nownews.com/20210517-2484021

Earth day. Everyday . . . An old artwork from last year which accompanies a Haiku by Pháp Hoan Giọt nước mắt rùa nhỏ xuống ruộng khô ngày đầy nắng. -Pháp Hoan Translation Tortoise’s tears dripping on arid field under the scorching sun. Probably it wasn't the poet's intention, but I immediately thought of Mekong Delta in southern Vietnam - a dissapearing region. The livelihood of the local farmers already in jeopardy due to unregulated amount of hydropower dam and sand exploitation, but with the sea level keeps rising, most of the Delta will be underwater in less than a century. The tortoise is looking up waiting for a sign of rain, waiting for an answer from Ông trời. His tear resembles the hardship of local farmers who have to spare every last drop of fresh water for their rice field, yet the only thing can grow from such harsh condition is weed. The struggle to survive on the eroding land amidst a draught. The blurry future of a region once upon a time was covered in dense forest, blessed with bountiful harvest that could sustain the whole country #earthday #everyday #MekongDelta #climatechange #Haiku #PhápHoan #vietnamesepoetry #poetry #illustration #vietnameseart #vietnameseartist #phuongnguyenart

What kind of sustainable energy do you see in the illustration? Instagram doesn't allow me to post long drawing, so I have to separate it into three posts 🤦🏻‍♀️ Pls do go to my main page to see the entire long illustration ❤️ I have been working on some Canary Wharf window graphic commission proposals recently. The themes are around sustainability, ecology, colours and wellbeing. Though the shortlist haven't announced yet, I'm excited to show you some of the works. Good luck 🤞 #illustratorsoninstagram #illustration #sustainable #sustainableenergy #windenergy #biodiversity #ecology #nature #forest #halfearth #animal #waterfall #bird #design #graphic #art #drawing #sustainability #life #earth #childrenbook #childrenillustration #hydropower #水力発電 #永續資源 #插畫 #童書 #綠能
