Ten things to know about veganism in childhood

有關十件事情在童年成為一個素食主義者

Veganism is on the rise in certain parts of the world. Though global data is limited, around 

3% of the world's population was estimated to be vegan in 2018. In the US, a 2023 Gallup 

poll found that 1% of the population said they followed a vegan diet.

素食主義在部份世界有逐漸增加的趨勢。在2018年世界預測有3%人口成為

素食為主，即便全球素食人口數據是有限的。在美國，2023年蓋洛普調查發現

有1%人口遵從素食飲食。

More recently, a survey by The Vegan Society found that around 3% of the UK population 

has a plant-based diet – equivalent to approximately two million people.

最近調查，「素食社會」調查發現全英國有3%的人口以植物性為主的飲食--相當

平均於兩百萬人口。

There are many well-documented benefits to such a choice. For one, eating meat 

and dairy is notoriously bad for the planet, while plants offer a much more sustainable

solution. Many people have ethical concerns about the welfare of animals bred for 

consumption, and there is evidence that balanced, varied vegan diets have some 

health advantages as well.  

這有對該選擇有眾多完整文獻好處。第一，吃肉和乳製品對地球是有害的，然

而植物會提供足夠解決方案。許多人們對動物福利為了消費肉品而牧養有道德考

量，也是唯一證明平衡素食飲食有許多健康的好處。

Nevertheless, isolated cases of severe malnutrition in infants have led some to argue that a 

vegan diet is unsafe for children. 

然而，唯有一件相反的是，在幼兒期將缺乏嚴重的營養素，素食飲食對孩童有

害的，會導致一些爭議。

However, expert opinion on whether children can stay healthy and follow a vegan diet

varies around the world. While official dietary associations in both America and the UK

argue that a vegan diet, when appropriately planned, is safe for infants and children, in 

Germany, France, Belgium and Poland, health authorities have some concerns.

然而，專家評論不論在世界上兒童能維持健康和遵循各種素食飲食。在美國

和英國裡，官方飲食協會爭論素食飲食大部份是計劃的、也是對嬰孩和兒童

是安全的。在德國、法國、比利時和波蘭健康權威有許多考量。

Unfortunately, historically there has been little research on the health impact of a 

plant-based diet for children, but that is finally starting to change, with a host of new 

studies offering up insights.

不幸的是，歷史上鮮有在兒童以植物基底飲食的健康影響研究。一個新研究

主持提供嶄新觀點最終開啟改變。

But let's back up a little. Vegans do not eat any foods derived from animals. They eschew

meat, fish, dairy and eggs, and instead eat a diet based on plants, as well as fungi, algae

and bacteria. Think vegetables, fruits, nuts, seeds, beans and legumes, but also bread, pasta

and hummus – many foods are accidentally vegan.

So, what does the science say about the effects of a vegan diet in childhood?

素食不會食用任何從動物身上提供的食物，他們避開食用肉、魚、乳製品和蛋，

僅食用植物為基礎的飲食。或是像是真菌、早淚

25 of the world’s best sandwiches

世界上二十五個最棒的三明治  

Watch CNN Original Series “Eva Longoria: Searching for Spain,” following the award-winning actress on a gastronomic pilgrimage across the rich tapestry of Spanish cuisine. Sunday nights at 9 p.m. ET/PT on CNN.

Is there a food more humble yet universally adored than the sandwich?

And while one person’s go-to hamburger snack might be another’s katsu sando or chivito, there’s hardly a country on the planet that doesn’t turn to some type of bread with something stuffed inside it to cure a craving.

一人必去的漢堡小吃可能為另一個人的日本炸豬排三明治或智利牛排漢堡。

Traveling the world’s sandwiches is, in a way, like traveling the world.

旅行世界的三明治，像環遊世界。

To help narrow your choices for the sandwich to plan your next trip around, here are 25 of the world’s best sandwiches:

來縮小您三明治的選擇來安排下個旅程，以下是世界二十五個最棒的三明治：

Bocadillo de jamón Ibérico, Spain

西班牙伊比利火腿潛艇堡

There are ho-hum ham sandwiches and then there’s this simple handheld featuring some of the world’s finest jamón, luxurious Iberian ham from acorn-fed pigs. The thinly sliced meat is piled on crusty bread that’s brushed or drizzled with extra virgin olive oil. Fresh tomatoes and perhaps some cheese can be added, but the ham is undoubtedly the star of this show.

這裡有乏味的火腿三明治，也是世界上最好的火腿是質樸特色手拿三明治，奢華的伊比利火腿來自豬飼橡子。在酥脆麵包上堆著薄如片狀的火腿，或沾著初榨橄欖油。現採的番茄和一些起司也可加入麵包裡。不過，火腿無庸置疑是潛艇堡裡的主角。

A tuition-free school created by Mark Zuckerberg and Priscilla Chan will shutter next year

隔年祖克柏翰免學費學校

In 2016, Mark Zuckerberg and his wife, Priscilla Chan, opened a tuition-free school for low-income families in California’s Bay Area, where Meta is headquartered.

Created under the couple’s philanthropy, the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative (CZI), the Primary School aimed to combine healthcare and education for students “from birth through high school.” Chan, a former pediatrician, once described the organization’s education efforts as combining her two core passions.

祖克柏和他的太太張,為加州灣州(也是Meta的總部)低收入家庭設立了一個免學費學校。在這夫妻打造下，張●祖克柏慈善事業。主要學校忠旨是為學生從出生到高中結合醫療照顧和教育。張 前先是小兒科醫生，她描述機構教育成果像是結合她的核心熱情。

Carson Cook, the Primary School’s senior manager of strategy and advancement, confirmed in an interview with CNN that the school began meeting with parents to inform them of the closure last Thursday and said those conversations are ongoing. But he declined to comment on the reasons behind the closure or the timing.

國小資深的策略和廣告經理--庫克，在上週四告知學校開始與家長會談和CNN確認面談，說道這些對話正進行。 但是他在原因前減少的回覆關閉或時間點。

“At the Primary School, our model has always been one that carefully considers the needs of the whole family, and we want to do our absolute best to ensure that every child and their caregiver is supported,” Cook said. “And I think what we just want to say is that that hasn’t changed.”

Cook declined to comment on CZI. The philanthropy has recently undergone a series of significant changes. In February, the organization told employees it would cut internal and external diversity, equity and inclusion efforts.https://edition.cnn.com/2025/04/25/tech/chan-zuckerberg-primary-school-closing/index.htmlThat followed a similar move a month earlier by Zuckerberg’s company Meta — one of several Trump-friendly changes the social media giant has made since the start of this year. Zuckerberg and Chan also attended Trump’s inauguration, where they were seated prominently among other Big Tech leaders.

Chanel and Armani celebrate big milestones at Paris couture week
香奈兒和亞曼尼在巴黎時裝週慶祝里程碑

Haute couture is an enigma to most. Accessible to only a select few (an estimated few thousand people globally) because of the eye-watering price tags that such extraordinary designs command, the fashion designers who partake in the exclusive event in Paris must ensure that strict criteria are met, in order to be approved by the Fédération de la Haute Couture et de la Mode, France’s governing fashion body.
高級時裝是最令人困惑的。 只有(全球預測數千人)一些人可以無障礙通過。這傑出價格需求因為這價格如此驚人便宜。時尚設計師參加巴黎獨家的宴會嚴格的標準都被檢視。

Taking place following men’s fashion week, during which ready-to-wear designs are shown, the haute couture shows serve a wholly different purpose. The pieces are not intended for everyday wear and cannot simply at a department store (couture clients make direct orders and have private fittings). With that, the designs are often more experimental than commercial, and showcase exceptional savoir-faire. 
男裝週準備著裝的設計展示。高級服飾秀提供全然不同的目的，這衣服不是做為日常穿著，也不能在百貨公司買到(高級客戶直接訂購並量身剪裁)。如此，這設計通常更為實驗性多於商業性，展示了精湛技藝。

The week had plenty of celebratory moments, including Chanel’s 110 years in haute couture. Presented in the Grand Palais, on a runway that featured a crossing C formed by two monumental staircases, reflecting the house’s double-C logo, the collection was designed by the studio while awaiting the arrival of new designer Matthieu Blazy, who is expected to join by April 2025.

這週許多慶祝時刻，包括在香奈兒在高級服飾110年周年。象徵在巴黎大皇宮
Another big milestone was celebrated by Giorgio Armani, who celebrated 20 years of his couture line Armani Privé with a collection that explored themes of light and shimmer. Titled “Lumières” (French for “light” and “enlightenment”, the 90-year-old designer’s show was held at the newly acquired Palazzo Armani in the 8th arrondissement, a lavish private mansion complete with gilded moldings and a marble staircase.
另一個里程碑則是慶祝喬吉歐●雅曼尼，慶祝二十年時裝線有著亞曼尼
The collection, comprised of 94 looks, including beaded suits, sleek peplums, silky Mao jackets, crystal-encrusted evening gowns and 1920-inspired headpieces, revisited iconic moments of his career, providing a dialogue between the glamour of more recent and distant pasts, When it comes to Armani’s work, the devil really is in the details.


Patience is a luxury
耐心就是一種奢華
For Alessandro Michele, the designer of Valentino, luxury means taking time, as he explained backstage after presenting his first couture collection for the Italian house. Under his creative leadership, Valentino now stages one couture show a year, instead of the typical two. Michele compared the experience of haute couture to a ritual, describing the process as a labor of patience.
亞歷山佐 米歇爾是瓦倫提諾的設計師，奢侈品代表耗時、就像她在後台位義大利房屋之後在她呈現第一場高級時裝。

Nearly 200 Jurassic footprints unearthed on ‘dinosaur highway’

恐龍高速公路:近兩百件出土的侏儸紀足跡

Scientists have unearthed nearly 200 dinosaur footprints, dating back 166 million years to the Middle Jurassic Period, at Dewars Farm Quarry in Oxfordshire, England.

The remarkable find, first spied in 2023 when quarry worker Gary Johnson sensed “unusual bumps” on the ground while extracting limestone for road construction, has been nicknamed the “dinosaur highway” as a nod to the extensive pathways left by these prehistoric creatures.

科學家在英國在戴華斯採石場牛津郡挖掘出土將近兩百件恐龍足跡，追溯166億年到中古侏儸紀時期。非常明顯發現、在2023採石場工人蓋瑞偵測到第一個標本─在道路工程掏金時，發現不太尋常的凸起物在地上，就被命名為恐龍高速公路。這像是對史前生物的遼闊遺跡表示贊同。

While other Jurassic pathways have been documented globally, the recent “highway” discovery in Oxfordshire is the largest known dinosaur track site in the United Kingdom.

最近的「侏儸紀高速公路」在牛津郡發現，然而其他侏儸紀道路已全球文件化，但目前發現的仍是英國史上恐龍遺址最大的遺跡。

Around 100 volunteers from the University of Birmingham and the University of Oxford collaborated this past June for one week, excavating the tracks and recording as much information as possible about the expansive site.

The discovery holds particular significance as it aligns with the 200th anniversary of the first-ever described dinosaur, the Megalosaurus, which was found in Oxfordshire in 1824.

第一次曾未描述的恐龍兩百年紀念日，這發現明顯像是這樣。巨齒龍在1824年牛津郡被挖掘。

“There’s a really long legacy in this area of exciting dinosaur tracks and body fossils,” said Kirsty Edgar, a professor of micropaleontology at the University of Birmingham in England who was involved with the excavation.

「恐龍遺跡和化石在這麼久的歷史遺產真是令人興奮！」克絲蒂愛得格說道。她是一位

英國伯明翰維大學的古生物學從事這場疏散。

Europe’s secret season for travel starts now
現開啟歐洲旅行的秘密
For travelers looking to avoid all that — as well as break less of a sweat literally and financially — welcome to Europe’s secret season.
From roughly mid-October to mid-December, shoulder season for travel to Europe comes with fewer crowds, far more comfortable temperatures in places that skew scorching hot during the summer months and plunging prices on airfare and accommodation.
像旅行者期盼
 
Plunging prices
極遽下降的價格
“The cheapest time to fly to Europe is typically from about the middle point of October to the middle point of December,” said Hayley Berg, lead economist at travel platform Hopper. “Airfare prices during those eight or nine weeks or so will typically be about an average of 40% lower than prices in the peak of summer in June.”
「在十月中旬到十二月中旬，是飛歐洲最便宜的時間。」海莉 柏格說道。她是哈潑旅行平台的經濟學家。在這八、九個星期航空價格明顯地40%低於一般六月暑假的高峰。
Hopper’s data shows that airfare to Europe from the United States during the period between October 20 and December 8 is averaging between $560 and $630 per ticket — down 9% from this time last year and 5% compared to the same timeframe in 2019.
