I’m in a WeChat group initiated by Plant Future and Good Food Fund. It is meant to connect young Chinese students who are interested in promoting vegetarianism. We have a weekly discussion (in English) every Wednesday morning 7:30AM. If you’re interested in joining, please send me a message.

Note that you do need a WeChat account.

This is a bit of late reply. I have tried to take some of my family members and friends to vegetarian restaurants. Sometimes they are open to try it. Sometimes they outright refuses to go because "it is a waste of money" even if I promise to pay. I guess the lesson is that there no method that works universally. We just got to try different methods on different people.

Recently I got curious about the situation of animal farming in China. So I asked the popular AI tools (ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity) to do some research on this topic. I have put the result into a NotebookLM note here: https://notebooklm.google.com/notebook/071bb8ac-1745-4965-904a-d0afb9437682

If you have resources that you think I should include, please let me know.

I have $20 in unused RunPod.io credit (cloud GPU service) that I’m not using and can’t refund. 😢 I’d love to donate it to someone working on any useful — whether it's for running models, processing data, or prototyping.

Feel free to message me if you want it.

From the perspective of the long term, helping humans to improve how they govern themselves, might be the necessary condition for any other causes. Without it, even miracle scientific breakthrough will not produce positive outcomes.

Here's a story about a Japanese Buddhist monk who dedicated his life to suicide prevention: https://tricycle.org/magazine/ittetsu-nemoto/

International AIDS Society President Beatriz Grinsztejn, referring to cuts worldwide, said: "The U.S. funding cuts are dismantling the system. HIV treatment is crumbling. TB services are collapsing... Lives are on the line."
