BEIJING, May 27, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — The Dujiangyan water conservancy system, located in southwest China’s Sichuan Province, has played an important role in flood control and irrigation on the Chengdu Plain over the past 2,000 years.

As the world’s oldest water project still in operation, Dujiangyan is a vivid example of ancient Chinese wisdom seeking harmony between man and nature.

Qimin Yaoshu, a sixth-century encyclopedia on agriculture, advises: “Act according to the seasons and the land. You will gain more with less.”

And this classic quote is still influencing modern China, which is currently undergoing a green transformation in social and economic development.

Citing the ancient quote, Chinese President Xi Jinping said at a meeting on environmental protection in May 2018 that the concept stresses the importance of uniting heaven, earth, and man, connecting the ecosystem with human civilization, and following the rules of nature.

“The rise or fall of a civilization hinges on its relationship with nature,” he added.

Qimin Yaoshu was compiled by Jia Sixie of the Northern Wei Dynasty (386-534).

“Jia uses the example of grain farming to specifically illustrate how to ‘act according to the seasons and the land’,” explained Yang Yu, professor of ancient Chinese literature at the Central South University.

“For instance, fertility varies from land to land. If farmland is particularly fertile, planting at a later date could yield more while early sowing is critical for relatively barren lands, which would otherwise risk producing little if the farming season was missed.”

The professor noted that the philosophical wisdom of Jia not only applies to agriculture, but also holds true in all aspects of the relationship between man and nature.

Greening China  

China is now creating a series of initiatives to make the country and the planet greener.

According to the 14th Five-Year Plan (2021-2025) for National Economic and Social Development and the Long-Range Objectives Through the Year 2035, an essential part of China’s modernization will be achieving harmony between man and nature.

In the plan, China vows to lower the energy consumption per unit of gross domestic product (GDP) and its carbon dioxide emissions per unit of GDP by 13.5 percent and 18 percent, respectively.

Last September, China also announced it would strive to peak carbon dioxide emissions by 2030 and achieve carbon neutrality by 2060.

“This major strategic decision is made based on our sense of responsibility to build a community with a shared future for mankind and our own need to secure sustainable development,” Xi said at the Leaders Summit on Climate on April 22, 2021.

While the world is facing grave challenges from the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and climate change, Xi called on the international community to come up with unprecedented actions to deal with the problems at the summit.

He said the world must be committed to harmony between man and nature, green development, systemic governance, a people-centered approach, multilateralism and the principle of common but differentiated responsibilities.

To improve global efforts on biodiversity, China will hold the 15th meeting of the Conference of the Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity in October 2021.

HONG KONG, May 27, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — ZOTAC Technology, a global manufacturer of innovation, will join COMPUTEX Virtual 2021 to reveal a brilliant line-up of innovation to celebrate 15 years of excellence. See the latest in ZOTAC design and engineering in the virtual booth which include the ultimate ZOTAC GAMING graphics card and a new addition to the ZBOX MAGNUS ONE family.

EMPOWER EVERYTHING

The ZOTAC ZBOX MAGNUS ONE ECM53060C is the newest member to the MAGNUS ONE family. A secondary model to the incredibly successful and winning recipient of the Computex 2021 d&I Special award and 2021 Red Dot Product Design award, MAGNUS ONE ECM73070C. The all-new MAGNUS ONE ECM53060C pairs an Intel® Core™ i5 processor with a desktop ZOTAC GAMING GeForce™ RTX 3060 graphics card to bring powerful performance in a compact 8.3L minimally designed chassis and integrated with a 500W 80+ Platinum power supply. MAGNUS ONE has the do-it-all capability to deliver the best experience for daily tasks, gaming, entertainment, content creation and business.

THE ULTIMATE ZOTAC GAMING GPU

The ZOTAC GAMING GeForce 3090 AMP Extreme Holo is the ultimate ZOTAC GAMING GeForce RTX™ 30 Series graphics card. It features the unique and 2021 Red Dot Award winning HoloBlack design first introduced on the AMP Holo and AMP Core Holo models. Redesigned with function over form, the AMP Extreme Holo is the culmination of all current 30 Series features and design shifted towards performance.

The 3090 AMP Extreme Holo utilizes the IceStorm 2.0 cooling system updated to include the largest ever set of fans used on a ZOTAC GAMING graphics card with three 100mm fans for maximum airflow dynamics. The fans feature an 11-blade design to increase static pressure and airflow by up to 10% compared to previous generation design. More airflow exit routes have been added across the GPU design including a direct pass-thru airflow vent, which enables faster heat exhaust, reduction of trapped heat, and lowers airflow turbulence for overall improved noise and thermal performance.

To further enhance cooling performance, the heatsink has been optimized with up to a 10% increase in thickness and features three distinct partitions that fully enfold the heatpipes for overall increased contact with the aluminum heatsink fin-array. The total count of heatpipes used has increased to eight, the highest count of heatpipes used in a ZOTAC GAMING graphics card design. The heatpipes have been designed to increase contact with the cold-plate by up to 72% utilizing a vertical layout. The internal structure of the heatpipes have also received an update where it consists of composite layers including a thicker envelope and a grooved wick with a multi-channel working fluid.

The 3090 AMP Extreme Holo also features a Dual BIOS controlled via a soft-switch in the ZOTAC GAMING FireStorm utility. Users can switch between the Dual BIOS and select QUIET for lower noise performance with slightly warmer temperatures or AMPLIFY for lower temperatures with slightly higher noise levels.
