Qingqiao's viewpoint: 01Global military spending has increased to approximately $2.72 trillion According to the latest report from the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute in Sweden, global military spending reached a new high of $2.72 trillion in 2024, a year-on-year increase of 9.4%, achieving ten consecutive years of growth and a cumulative increase of 37%. Among them, the total military expenditure of NATO member countries has exceeded 1.5 trillion US dollars, accounting for 55% of the global total; Military spending in the Middle East has surged by 15% to $243 billion; Military spending in Asia and Oceania reached $629 billion, the largest increase since 2009. Qingqiao's viewpoint: These soaring expenditures occur against the backdrop of the ongoing global pandemic trauma and the increasing threat of climate change, where humanity seems more willing to invest in the ability to mutually destroy rather than the wisdom of common survival. However, the more we pursue absolute security, the deeper our insecurity becomes. Perhaps what needs to be reflected upon is not 'how many weapons are needed to achieve safety', but 'how to avoid the need for these weapons'. 01China's total nuclear power scale jumps to the world's first place for the first time Qingqiao's viewpoint: Global wave of nuclear energy development: The United States plans to commercialize advanced nuclear energy by 2030 and achieve 200 million kilowatts of nuclear power installation by 2050; Russia plans to put 12 units into operation before 2035, with nuclear power accounting for 25% by 2045. More than 30 countries, including Poland, Türkiye and Saudi Arabia, have also launched nuclear power construction plans. China's nuclear power installed capacity has jumped to the top in the world, marking a new stage of global energy power transfer. This is not only a transcendence of numbers, but also heralds the beginning of a new era characterized by "nuclear civilization" - as the fossil energy system gradually disintegrates with geopolitical conflicts, nuclear energy is reshaping the technological planning and international order of the 21st century. 01Large scale power outages in Spain and Portugal Qingqiao's viewpoint: Qingqiao's viewpoint: Although dual fuel vessels account for 58% of global new shipbuilding orders in 2024 (Clarkson data), 83% of the existing fleet still relies on traditional fuel oil. Alternative fuels such as green methanol/LNG currently only meet 4.2% of global ship fuel demand, creating a supply redundancy of 'the future is here, not yet retired'. This inventory movement is essentially a microcosm of the "creative destruction" process of the global energy system: while capital fervently pursues the concept of green shipping, traditional energy systems are still operating according to the law of inertia. During this periodfriction costIt is being manifested in the form of abnormal inventory growth. Be alert to negative feedback from inventory prices, which may lead to regional price collapse. This morning, we stand: Between the ruins of administrative reform and the holographic projection of digital government;Missile defense systemBetween the steel forest and the sandy land of public security; Between the wispy white smoke from the cooling tower of a nuclear power plant and the dark pit of ten thousand years of nuclear waste; Between the gilded words of carbon neutrality commitment and the dark reality of fuel oil storage tanks. Tagore once saw with poetic insight: "Faith is like a bird before dawn, sensing the pulse of light before the darkness fades away." And in 2025, what we need is not only the sensitivity to perceive light, but also the courage to create light, because ultimately, it is not light that chooses us, but we carve out the trajectory of light in chaos with every solid step we take.
