Nagoya (Japan), Aug 13 (ANI): Japanese company Rinnai has introduced a new show room in Nagoya at the headquarter of the company. Rinnai is a global manufacturing company that provides water heaters, kitchen appliances, air conditioning, bath facilities and other machinery to help people live healthier and more comfortable lives. It’s been more than 100 years since Rinnai launched its gas supply line, which has some different products like a gas stove, oven, water heaters, and others. Even users can combine cooking utensils and cooking applications developed by Rinnai and cook them automatically. Bubble bath units generate large amounts of bubbles of various sizes to provide a comfortable bath time. Rinnai started to produce gas appliances, but under the 2050 carbon neutral movement, energy saving is an important issue all over the world. But Rinnai’s policy is to "save energy without patience. It means Rinnai products realise energy savings by themselves.

Natural disasters like floods and storms are happening more frequently around the world. In just the first half of this year, according to a study, they've resulted in some 65 billion U.S. dollars in economic losses worldwide. Choi Min-jung reports. Every year, natural disasters like floods, earthquakes and storms lead to significant economic losses. According to global reinsurance firm Munich Re,... natural disasters in the first half of 2022 caused overall losses of 65 billion U.S dollars worldwide. A chief climate scientist at Munich Re says that it is becoming "extremely clear that the influence of climate change is becoming ever more evident". The United States was the country with the highest weather-related economic losses. Losses in the U.S. totaled 28 billion dollars in the first six months of 2022,... accounting for almost half of the global economic damage. A series of severe thunderstorms and tornadoes were the main causes. The Asia-Pacific region also saw 22 billion dollars of economic damage, a figure higher than usual. This was mostly caused by extreme rainfall and floods in Australia,.. as well as a powerful earthquake that struck Japan in March. In Europe, extreme heat and wildfires are believed to have had a big impact,... though exact figures were not revealed. The International Labor Organization has also warned that work-related heat stress is projected to reduce global total working hours by 2.2 percent,... and global GDP by 24-hundred billion dollars by 2030. South Korea has also suffered from extreme weather events. Prices of agricultural products jumped by over 8 percent on-year in July,... as production volume declined due to the earlier-than-expected heatwave and rainfall in early June. The Hyundai Research Institute says it is highly likely that there will be even bigger price hikes if there's more extreme weather in the coming years. Experts say climate change poses one of the biggest risks to the global economy, and that stronger protection is needed as the majority of people remain uninsured against natural disasters.

As Seoul-Tokyo relations continue to deteriorate, a Statue of Peace has been installed at a public art museum for the first time in Japan. A smaller version of this statue of a girl representing the victims of Japan's wartime sexual slavery was shown at the Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum a few years ago, but removed after four days due to protests. It remains to be seen whether this statue can remain standing until the end of the exhibit, and communicate the pains of wartime victims to the Japanese people. [Pkg] This small Statue of Peace, barely the size of a grown-up's hand, was displayed at the Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum in 2012 but was removed just after four days due to protests. It took seven years for the original Statue of Peace to be exhibited in that country again. Local visitors see and touch the statue to get a sense of Korea's painful history. [Soundbite] KIM SEO-KYUNG(SCULPTOR OF THE STATUE OF PEACE) : "I hope people can relate to it. I think people in Japan do, too." Photos of Japan's wartime sex crime victims were also on display. All of the 20 pieces in the room have to do with women forced into wartime sex slavery, forced labor conscription, Okinawa and other subjects deemed taboo in Japan and were once attacked or censored because of the subject matter. This is the first time in Japan that artworks related to comfort women were shown side by side. [Soundbite] OKAMOTO(EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEMBER, AICHI TRIENNALE) : "I hope this serves as a channel that connects citizens of both nations at a time when bilateral ties are so bad." This two-month-long exhibit titled "Freedom of Expression?," also known as "Lack of freedom of expression and thereafter," is part of Japan's largest international arts show. Conscientious Japanese citizens are scheduled to stand guard at the exhibit to keep the country's right-wing extremists from disrupting the event.
