Episódio 11 - O temperamento fleumático

Halo, Apa kabar semua! Bagaimana akhir minggu kalian?
Karena kemarin adalah hari libur, jadi saya santai di rumah, terus saya pergi berjalan-jalan ke mall. Saya hanya melihat-lihat di toko, untuk “cuci mata”. Kalian tahu arti kata “cuci mata”? Di Bahasa Inggris artinya “window shopping”, di Bahasa Jepang juga artinya sama ya, “ウィンドウショッピング. Menurut saya, kadang-kadang “cuci mata” itu penting, untuk membuat pikiran jadi ringan. 
Waktu pandemi satu tahun lalu, hobi saya bertambah satu, yaitu “cuci mata” di toko-toko online haha… Bagaimana dengan kalian? Kalian juga suka “cuci mata”? Ok, Hari ini sampai di sini ya! Sampai jumpa lagi! ^^

100 – curiosidades sobre España  

Today I'm talking about temperature in January. Japan is a small country but its island is long from north to south. For that reason, temperatures are so different by location.  Winter temperaturesin Japan are rising more than ever before.

1月の気温
日本は小さな国ですが、日本列島は南北に細長く、北と南では気温がまったく違います。
一番北にある北海道はマイナス２０℃ぐらいに気温が下がる日もあるようですが、南の沖縄は最低気温が15℃前後ぐらいだそうです。
私が住んでいるところは　兵庫県。西日本に位置しています。大阪や京都も近いところです。いわゆる関西です。
このあたりの1月の平均最低気温は2℃、最高気温は9℃ぐらいです。でも、先週は突然、昼間の気温が15℃ぐらいまで上がり、コートを着て歩いていると汗ばむぐらいの陽気でした。最低気温も7℃ぐらいあって、朝起きたときも全然寒くありませんでした。
なのに、また今週はどんどん気温が下がって、来週には　最低気温がマイナス２℃、最高気温も５℃ぐらいまでしか上がらないという予報が出ています。　北海道や東北地方の雪国に住んでいる人からすれば、ぜんぜん寒くない気温かもしれません。でも、ずっと、関西にすんでいる私にとって、０℃より気温が下がることはとてもめずらしいことです。雪も滅多に降らない場所で、冬の間に１－２回雪を見ることができたらいい方です。　だから、少しでも雪が降ると、子どもたちはとても喜びます。私も小学生のころ、雪が降ると嬉しくて、外に出て雪を手で受け止めたり、ほんの少し積もった雪を集めたりしたものです。
住んでいる場所によって、気温差はありますが、日本人にとって、１月、２月は寒くて当たりまえの季節。でも、今日テレビの天気予報で聞いたんですが、最近の関西の気温は４０年ぐらい前の九州南部の気温と同じぐらいになっているそうです。　ということは、このあたりで雪を見ることは益々減っていくということですね。そういえば、車で２－３時間で行ける滋賀県のスキー場の中には雪がなくて、スキーができないところもあるようです。　あまりに寒い冬は困りますが、いつも通りの寒さの冬になってほしいと思います。

Textile waste is an urgent global problem, with only 12% recycled worldwide, according to the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, a fashion sustainability nonprofit.

Nowhere is the problem greater than in China, the world's largest textile producer and consumer, where more than 26 million tons of clothes are thrown away each year, according to government statistics. Most of it ends up in landfills.

The country's clothing industry is dominated by "fast fashion" — cheap clothes made from unrecyclable synthetics. And Chinese e-commerce brands Shein and Temu make the country one of the world's largest producers of cheap fashion, selling in more than 150 countries.

Currently, only about 20% of China's textiles are recycled, according to the Chinese government. And many Chinese consumers are unwilling to buy used items anyway.

Still, among younger Chinese, there is a growing awareness of sustainability and some "remade" clothing businesses have emerged.

Designer Zhang Na's fashion label, Reclothing Bank, sells clothes, bags and other accessories made from materials such as plastic bottles, fishing nets and flour sacks.

The items' labels have QR codes that show their composition, how they were made and the source of the materials.

Reclothing Bank began in 2010 to give "new life to old things," Zhang said of her store in Shanghai. A large used clothes deposit box sits outside the entrance.

Zhang said she has seen sustainability consciousness grow since she opened her store, with core customers in their 20s and 30s.

But recycled garments sold at stores like Reclothing Bank cost much more than fast-fashion brands due to their production methods.

And that's the real problem, said Sheng Lu, professor of fashion and apparel studies at the University of Delaware.

"Studies repeatedly show consumers are not willing to pay higher for clothing made from recycled materials" he said.
