IT HAS BEEN suggested by some that the anti-corruption campaign has contributed to the slowing of the Chinese economy, and instead of curbing corruption it is only necessary to keep it within a "reasonable limit" as this will help stimulate the economy.

Scientists estimate that there are more than 400,000 species of plants on earth, at least half of which are edible for humans. Indeed, it is entirely possible that we are capable of eating 300,000 plant species. And yet we consume just a tiny fraction of that, about 200 plant species.
