台中市10月18日傳出全國首起疑似非洲豬瘟案例，震撼畜牧業。農業部隨即宣布，全國肉品市場停止屠宰與拍賣5天，並全面禁止廚餘養豬，以防疫情擴散。
為快速處理廚餘並防堵病毒傳播，嘉義縣緊急啟動黑水虻部隊。黑水虻能分解廚餘、糞便與動植物屍體，被譽為僅次於蜜蜂的「人類第二有用昆蟲」，如今成為防疫的重要生態防線。
Suspected African Swine Fever in Taichung! Black Soldier Flies Step In
Taichung City reported Taiwan’s first suspected case of African swine fever on October 18, alarming the livestock industry. The Ministry of Agriculture quickly ordered a five-day halt to slaughtering and meat auctions nationwide and banned the use of food waste for pig feed to stop the virus from spreading.
To quickly handle food waste and prevent the spread of disease, Chiayi County has deployed black soldier flies. These insects, known for breaking down food waste and organic matter, are called “the second most useful insect after bees” and now play a key role in epidemic prevention.

帳號開通後關注度迅速上升，追蹤人數已突破 1.2 萬人。不過，留言區湧入大量網友留言，除關心于朦朧墜樓案真相外，也有人詢問翻牆是否違法及張貼中華民國國旗，引發討論。
Taiwan Affairs Office Launches Facebook Page, Flooded With Comments
The Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council announced on October 22 the launch of its Facebook page. Spokesperson Zhu Fenglian said the page aims to strengthen communication on Taiwan-related news, explain policies, and promote cross-strait relations.
After the page went live, it quickly gained attention, with over 12,000 followers. The comment section was soon filled with posts. Some asked about Yu Menglong’s death, while some questioned the legality of using VPNs and posted the Republic of China flag, sparking wide discussion.
第三則：取消與普丁會談！美宣布制裁俄國兩大能源商
川普於10月22日宣布取消與普丁的會談，原因是雙方在外交談判上缺乏實質進展，川普認為當前會面時機不恰當，對會後可能毫無進展表示失望。
與此同時，美國財政部宣布，對俄羅斯最大的兩家石油天然氣公司，即俄羅斯石油及路克石油，實施經濟制裁。目的是切斷資助克里姆林宮戰爭行動的資金來源，藉由加強經濟壓力促使俄羅斯重返停火談判。
Trump Cancels Putin Meeting, Sanctions Russia’s Top Energy Giants

The U.S. Department of the Treasury also announced sanctions on Russia’s two largest oil and gas companies, Rosneft and Lukoil. The move aims to cut off financial support for the Kremlin’s war efforts and pressure Russia to return to ceasefire talks through stronger economic measures.
第四則：別再盲目多做！高完成度勝過拼數量
在職場中，主動承接過多工作並不代表能獲得主管重視，專家指出，能者多勞是一種誤區，盲目多做反而容易過勞與出錯。
比起完成五件 60 分的任務，專注於少數達到 90 分的成果更具價值，高完成度能建立可靠形象，並在關鍵時刻被記住。要達到少而精，需聚焦核心任務、打磨細節，並持續累積高水準成果。
Work Smarter, Not Harder! Focus on Results That Matter
Doing too much at work doesn’t always get you noticed by your boss. Experts say the belief that capable workers should take on more tasks is a misconception, as overworking can easily lead to burnout and mistakes.
Instead of completing five average tasks, focusing on a few high-quality results brings more value. Doing work with excellence builds a reliable image and helps you stand out. To achieve this, focus on key tasks, pay attention to details, and keep improving your work quality.
第五則：孤獨成全球健康危機！每年逾 87 萬人喪命
世界衛生組織最新報告指出，全球約六分之一人口受孤獨影響，每年逾 87 萬人因此死亡。社會孤立會提高中風、心臟病、糖尿病與早逝風險，罹患憂鬱症機率為一般人兩倍。
WHO 表示，雖然網路讓人們更常連結，但孤獨感在年輕族群與中低收入國家尤為普遍。專家強調，科技應該要促進人際互動，而非弱化社會連結。
Loneliness Becomes a Global Health Crisis, Over 870,000 Deaths Annually
The World Health Organization warns that loneliness has become a major global health issue, affecting about one in six people and causing over 870,000 deaths each year. Social isolation increases the risk of stroke, heart disease, and diabetes, and lonely individuals are twice as likely to experience depression.
The WHO noted that even with greater online connectivity, loneliness remains widespread, especially among young people and those in low and middle income countries. Experts stress that technology should help strengthen, not weaken, real human connections.
Let’s wrap up today’s episode. We’ve learned about some important events happening around the world.

Trump canceled talks with Putin and announced sanctions on Russia’s top oil firms, signaling tougher U.S. pressure amid diplomatic deadlock.
Experts say doing fewer tasks with higher quality brings more recognition than taking on too much work that leads to burnout.
WHO warns that loneliness has become a global health concern, increasing risks of illness and death, especially among younger people and those in poorer countries.
