Xinhua News Agency, Geneva, October 31 (Reporter Shan Lei) On October 31, FIFA announced that Saudi Arabian Football Association was the only football association to submit an application for hosting the 2034 Football World Cup before the deadline.

FIFA confirmed that it has received an application from Saudi Arabia to host the 2034 World Cup, and Saudi Arabia is the only country that has expressed its interest in hosting the 2034 World Cup.

Previously, FIFA had announced that the only application for hosting the 2030 World Cup was jointly submitted by the Football Associations of Morocco, Portugal and Spain. At present, these three countries have confirmed their willingness to bid. As the centenary celebration of the World Cup will be held in 2030, FIFA plans to hold a World Cup in Uruguay, Argentina and Paraguay, and these three countries have also confirmed their willingness to host the World Cup.

Like Morocco, Portugal and Spain, Saudi Arabia still needs to pass the FIFA audit. If these bidding countries can meet the requirements of FIFA and go through the whole bidding process, then FIFA will determine its right to host at the FIFA General Assembly at the end of 2024. (End)

　　It’s less than half a month before the Mid-Autumn Festival. On the morning of September 12th, Xu Wen, a fruit grower, traveled 500 kilometers to Guangzhou to give Li Xiaojun, the leader of the pineapple "12221" working group, a freshly baked gift of Xu Wen’s Mid-Autumn Festival. Li Xiaojun, who just retired last year, received unexpected surprises from Xu Wen from time to time. Before that, she received newly opened pineapple flowers and fresh-cut small pineapples from Xu Wen. This time, she received the pineapple moon cake launched by Xu Wen for the first time, which just witnessed Xu Wen’s advanced road from selling pineapples to selling pineapple prefabricated dishes and pineapple food. Not long ago, Luo Hongxia, secretary of Xuwen County Party Committee, and Huang Laixing, county magistrate, also distributed invitations to share the sweet and unique "pineapple sea" moon cakes.

　　Xuwen fruit grower: There are always stars to clear the way, and there are always you coming for us.

　　"I have worked all my life, done many jobs and things, and made many friends. What makes me feel the value of my work most is ‘ The Sea of Pineapples ’ 。” Li Xiaojun said that in the "12221" work carried out in Xuwen, he met the most human "Xuwen people".

　　Li Xiaojun was the leader of the pineapple "12221" working group of the Guangdong Provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Affairs and one of the promoters of Xu Wen’s pineapple "counterattack". He just retired from his job last September. At that time, Xu Wen, a fruit grower, gave her a painting with a moving sentence: "There are always stars to clear the way, and there are always you coming for us."

　　Time goes back to five years ago, Li Xiaojun was "ordered at a critical moment" and stationed in Xuwen with a five-member working group. At that time, Xuwen pineapple was slow-moving, and the selling price of the local traditional pineapple variety Bali’s Tiantou was only 0.40 yuan/kg at the lowest in 2018. The pineapple rotted in Xuwen Tiantou and rotted in the hearts of fruit farmers. In order to solve the pain point of "increasing production of Xuwen pineapple without increasing income", the Guangdong Provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Affairs formed a Xuwen pineapple special working group in February 2019 to carry out special research on the construction of the "12221" market system of Guangdong pineapple.

　　With the spirit of nailing, the working group entered Xuwen, and together with the xuwen county Municipal Party Committee and County Government, created the "12221" replicable and scalable model of Xuwen pineapple. The members of the working group with their own strengths have changed from time to time, but the team leader Li Xiaojun is like a needle in the sea, firmly holding the initial intention of "doing practical things for fruit farmers." Under the leadership of Li Xiaojun, the working group crouched in Xuwen, and according to one stage and one key point, it boosted the sales of pineapples, guided the variety improvement, promoted farmers to get rich and promoted rural revitalization.

　　Starlight does not ask the passers-by, and time pays off. The working group held up a set of heavy figures: in 2023, Xuwen planted 350,000 mu of pineapple, with a yield of 1.5 billion Jin and a net income of 1.5 billion yuan for farmers.

　　In recent years, Xuwen pineapple has not only become a rich fruit, but also "counterattacked" to become the "vanguard" of high-quality agricultural products in Guangdong. The sale of pineapples has given Xuwen people a full sense of acquisition and happiness, and has also made a "good start" for Guangdong’s bulk agricultural products, becoming a model "barometer" for the price of good fruits in Lingnan. The marketing of "pineapple sea" is the "first stick" of agricultural products marketing in Guangdong, and then it drives litchi, longan and grapefruit to run out of success.

　　Li Xiaojun: Xu Wenren endowed "12221" with new content and higher value.

　　This time, Xu Wen’s fruit farmers sent Li Xiaojun a freshly baked "pineapple sea" moon cake, which was also the first pineapple moon cake launched by Xu Wen, which made Li Xiaojun particularly surprised.

　　Although one out of every three China pineapples comes from Xuwen, there was only a single canned product in the local pineapple processing before. In recent two years, with the vigorous promotion of the Guangdong Provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, Xuwen made great efforts in the food-oriented project of agricultural products. This year, the fresh-cut small pineapples won a great victory and were sold nationwide, and the pineapple prefabricated dishes also became an explosion. By doing a good job of "native products", pineapple processing industry has reached a new level.

　　"When I just retired last year, Xu Wen’s old friends came to see me. I was very moved. The happiest thing is that Xu Wen people can plant and sell, and they also sell at a good price. This year, friends from "Sea of Pineapples" came to see me again. I am very grateful. The happiest thing is to see pineapple moon cakes, which Xu Wenren gave me ‘ 12221’ New content and higher value. "

　　Just last month, the Guangdong Provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Affairs and xuwen county held an exchange forum in Guangzhou. All-media reporters of Yangcheng Evening News learned at the meeting that this time Xuwen attracted Dole. It is foreseeable that the addition of Dole, a world fruit processing factory, will drive Xuwen’s pineapple processing industry to a higher level. The agricultural product processing industry extends from the breeding industry, which is an inevitable stage of agricultural modernization.

　　"Make meaningful things interesting, make interesting things valuable, really do it, do it quickly, and do it for a long time." Li Xiaojun said that this is the consensus of colleagues in the "12221" working group. "Looking back now, five years of persistence, the sea of pineapples ‘ 12221’ The members of the working group are very happy to have done something meaningful, interesting and valuable. "

　　Call the world to eat "pineapple sea" moon cakes! Xu Wen sent an invitation letter.

　　At the end of August, Luo Hongxia, secretary of Xuwen County Party Committee, and Huang Laixing, county magistrate, distributed an invitation letter inviting friends all over the world to share the sweet and unique "pineapple sea" moon cake.

　　The invitation letter said: In 2023, with the enthusiastic help of buyers and consumers all over the world and the support of the "12221" market system, the beautiful and sweet "pineapple sea" will be full of gold and honey. We followed the drum beat of "High-quality Development Project of 100 Counties, 1000 Towns and 1000 Villages" and did a good job in Xuwen pineapple "Native Products" article. We promote new varieties, expand the big market, and promote hundreds of live broadcasts; We extend the pineapple industrial chain and implement the pineapple industrialization, food and festival projects. We combine the natural beauty of Xuwen’s "pineapple sea" with the cultural beauty of Mid-Autumn Festival, adopt unique fresh-keeping technology, and innovatively produce unique "pineapple sea" moon cakes with full natural pectin texture. Pineapples are reunited, homesickness is integrated into moon cakes, tenderness of red land and delicate integration of moon cakes, and the unique taste seems to bring us back to our hometown … …

　　Not only that, this Mid-Autumn Festival, the "pineapple sea" is still quietly brewing a surprise in the moonlight, which is waiting to be announced.

　　"For a moment, it suddenly occurred to me that if people will come to see me next year, what good news will they bring?" Li Xiaojun said: "I am particularly worth looking forward to!"

　　With the development of the epidemic in Covid-19, the public’s concern and concern about the wild animals around them are also increasing.

　　Recently, Minhang platform, a hotline for greening city appearance in Shanghai, received a call from the public: "Oh, there are bats in my house, what should I do?" Will it infect the virus? "

　　After receiving the call, Minhang District Yebao Station and the town Yebao Department immediately rushed to the scene for disposal. After all the partitions in the kitchen ceiling were removed, traces of bat habitation and a large amount of feces were found, but no living bats were found. In order to alleviate the public’s concerns, the disposal personnel disinfected the indoor environment.

　　I learned from the news that this Spring Festival, the Shanghai Wild Insurance Department is very busy. On the 10th day of the first month alone, the staff of Minhang District Wildlife Protection and Management Station dispatched six times, all of which came to the door to drive away the wintering bats that residents saw around their homes.

　　Bats were given a "bad name" because of an epidemic in novel coronavirus. It seems that people’s worries are not just bats. Now, how on earth should we get along with wild animals?

　　Wild animals can coexist peacefully with people.

　　Australia, far away from the ocean, has also attracted much attention because of "bats".

　　The flying fruit bats make the residents of Ingham town very uneasy, and the number of these fruit bats has even exceeded the number of local residents.

　　Why do bats stay in cities?

　　"Behind people’s surprise and incomprehension of bats in cities, there is actually a misunderstanding of urban ecosystems. In our work, we found that in a reasonably planned city, the types and quantities of urban animals far exceed the imagination of ordinary citizens. " Wang Fang, a researcher at the School of Life Sciences of Fudan University, has been observing and tracking the wild animals in the city. He believes that bats have actually found an niche in the city that does not interfere with humans.

　　For example, in Qingpu, Shanghai, the insects around the city’s rivers and lakes provide it with enough protein food, and the warm climate in the city reduces their mortality in winter, while the cracks in urban buildings are like cracks in wild rock walls, which can be used to inhabit. The adaptation of bats to the urban environment actually represents the possibility of the coexistence of wild animals and people.

　　Seeing bats blindly panics. Under the current epidemic cloud, this may be a common concern of many people. In Wang Fang’s view, "in fact, the differences in morphology and habits between bats are simply heaven and earth, and whether or not they carry viruses and what kinds of viruses they carry are also very different."

　　"The distribution area of Covid-19’s potential natural reservoir Jutoubat is in various mountainous areas. The key to their survival is to find caves as habitats and not to enter the Shanghai urban area. Even if it is a chrysanthemum bat, not every individual has the original virus of Covid-19, and the proportion of individuals carrying the virus is very low. " Wang Fang reminded people to stay calm when they found bats.

　　Shanghai wildlife protection management department also gave a suggestion: "Bats are in hibernation, so it is best not to disturb them."

　　If bats are found in their homes, it is not recommended for the public to catch them themselves; You can ask the local wildlife department to expel them and help clean and disinfect the environment. After expulsion, self-block holes or pipes to prevent bats from entering again.

　　What about stray animals? Is it safe?

　　The epidemic continues, and what is more closely related to people is whether the stray animals outside are not safe. Do you want to "clean up" wild animals?

　　At present, there is no evidence that cats and dogs will be infected with the new coronavirus, but there is no evidence that cats and dogs will not be infected with the new coronavirus.

　　The popular science article of the shell team pointed out that unlike domestic, immune and controllable pets, the stray animals without owners outside are immune and uncontrollable, so the risk is relatively large.

　　Professionals suggest that from the perspective of epidemic prevention, the public should avoid contact with stray animals at this stage, "whether the animals are dead or alive."

　　We should know that stray cats and dogs are not a healthy part of the wild ecosystem, and many animal protectors also take this opportunity to advocate that the stray animal population should be controlled for the purpose of improving the overall animal welfare and avoiding causing greater damage to the fragile ecosystem around.

　　Why not clean up the wild animals? The article on the shell emphasizes that stray and scattered cats and dogs have more contact with humans than wild animals; Secondly, the world belongs not only to human beings and livestock raised by human beings, but also to "aborigines" such as wild animals and plants. A healthy ecosystem composed of wild animals and plants is also very important for the long-term development of human beings.

　　"The most important thing is that the virus that caused the epidemic was not spread by wild animals actively, but was actively infected by human poaching, slaughtering and eating them."

　　Let’s take bats for example. In fact, like most wild animals, it is also avoiding contact with humans. As long as it is left alone, it is not only harmless but also very beneficial. It plays a vital role in the biological chain. In this case, what we can do is to be safe, not to disturb each other, to reduce contact with bats, and not to eat bats.

　　Love it and leave it in nature.

　　In fact, there is still a long way to go to establish such an idea of not disturbing wild animals and not having close contact with them.

　　Just last year, our reporter reported on wild animals, and we noticed that there are more and more young people raising and buying and selling "alternative pets" whether in the market of flowers, birds, fish and insects or on the Internet.

　　The popularity of "exotic pets" has broken the traditional pet pattern with cats, dogs and ornamental fish as the mainstay. However, many "exotic pets" actually come from wild or artificially bred offspring of wild provenances, and some come from other countries and regions, including fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals.

　　Experts remind that "different pets" can be raised without wanting to raise them. In the "exotic pet" trade, animal welfare is not guaranteed and species protection is threatened. For people, there are many health risks and high illegal risks.

　　In the interview, Guo Jinghui, the exotic pet project manager of the World Animal Protection Association, told this reporter that from a biological point of view, wild animals are still wild animals even if they can be farmed artificially. They have not evolved and formed genetic characteristics suitable for artificial breeding, which is also the essential difference between wild animals and domestic animals.

　　"Although wild animals can be successfully raised by humans, their nature and habits determine that they are not suitable for keeping as pets."

　　We therefore appeal to the public not to capture, buy or raise wild animals as pets.

　　In addition to the topic of "exotic pets", we also noticed that indoor zoos are introduced into many city shopping centers now, and the main people are in close contact with animals. In the semi-closed enclosure, the raccoon paced back and forth, and the auricular fox curled up in the corner.

　　"Wild animals need an open environment in the wild and interaction between groups. Even some large zoos in China can’t meet the needs of these wild animals, not to mention indoor shopping malls that don’t touch the ground all day and are difficult to see the sun." Zheng Yuru, wildlife project manager of the World Animal Protection Association, said.

　　In fact, there is a certain two-way risk when people are in close contact with wild animals. "Wild animals will have zoonotic pathogens in crowded shopping malls. In the design of global zoos, there is not much experience to deal with the pollution problem of indoor zoos." Zheng Yu said.

　　The best way to express your love for wild animals is not to keep them for yourself, but to leave them in the wild habitat.

　　"The best solution is to let wild animals live in the wild, and choose ‘ Animal-friendly ’ Travel mode, long-distance observation of animals, avoiding direct contact, not disturbing, not hurting. "

　　I hope that such a simple wish will be achieved as soon as possible after the epidemic.
