YANTAI, China, April 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Rising environmental pressures, from disappearing habitats to climate change and illegal hunting, are driving the need for high-tech wildlife protection solutions. As forests shrink, animals increasingly enter human settlements, leading to dangerous human-wildlife conflicts. Conservationists now rely on thermal cameras for wildlife to detect animals at night, stop poachers, and promote safer coexistence.

24/7 Wildlife Guardians: How Thermal Imaging Enables Uninterrupted Nighttime Monitoring

Unlike traditional methods, thermal cameras detect heat signatures, enabling nighttime non-invasive, 24/7 animal detection regardless of light or weather. In Kenya’s Maasai Mara Reserve, thermal imaging to stop poachers has helped World Wildlife Fund (WWF) teams track animal movements and intercept illegal hunting, leading to multiple arrests and a dramatic drop in rhino poaching since 2020. Similarly, Florida’s endangered panther population rebounded from fewer than 100 to 200 according to National Geographic, after infrared wildlife camera night vision provided critical data on their nocturnal movement.

On the Frontlines Against Poaching: Thermal Technology’s Role in Protecting Endangered Species

As a leading innovator in thermal camera, Raytron plays a pivotal role in wildlife monitoring and environmental protection with advanced wildlife monitoring thermal imaging systems. In 2021, when a herd of 15 Asian elephants in China’s Yunnan Province migrated toward urban areas, Raytron deployed over 40 infrared cameras for poaching prevention to track those 15 migrating elephants, ensuring their safety over 300 miles and helping to safeguard both animal and public safety.

Meanwhile, in Gansu Province, infrared cameras donated by Raytron enabled swift detection of wild boars intruding on farmlands, allowing authorities to proactively manage these incursions. “Thermal imaging lets us act before conflict occurs”, said a Raytron engineer.

Raytron’s Commitment to Eco-Friendly Surveillance for Wildlife

Raytron has upheld its corporate responsibility by championing the application of infrared thermal imagers in wildlife conservation for years, which bolsters biodiversity and ecological balance. Committed to its mission of creating incremental value for customers with continuous technological advancements, Raytron will continue advancing multi-dimensional sensing technology and innovating smart wildlife protection solutions with AI to foster safer human-wildlife coexistence.

LONDON, April 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Rio Tinto and AMG Metals & Materials (AMG M&M), an energy transition solutions provider, have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to jointly assess the feasibility of developing an integrated low-carbon aluminium project powered by renewable energy in India. AMG M&M is promoted by the two founders of Greenko and AM Green.

Together, the parties will consider the potential development of up to a 1 million tonnes per annum (Mtpa) primary aluminium smelter and 2 Mtpa of alumina production, both powered by renewable wind and solar energy firmed by pumped hydro storage. The development will comprise a study to evaluate a potential first phase 500,000 tonnes per annum primary aluminium smelter in a favourable location in India.

Rio Tinto Aluminium Chief Executive Jérôme Pécresse said: “This study is an important step in our ambition to grow our global, low-carbon aluminium footprint while exploring new project delivery approaches and opportunities in emerging markets. Partnering with AMG Metals & Materials enables us to assess how we can develop low-cost responsible aluminium production powered by renewable energy. With its rapid economic growth and strategic position, India is a compelling location for this potential project and aligns with our long-term vision for a globally more diverse and resilient aluminium business.”

As part of the study, AMG M&M will examine a firmed renewable energy solution with Greenko, while Rio Tinto will explore a commercial alumina solution. The study will also assess smelting technology options to determine the most cost-effective solution for the project.

Group President of AMG Metals & Materials and Greenko Mahesh Kolli said: “Over the last few years, we have been able to deliver a multitude of decarbonization solutions comprising electricity, molecules, chemicals and fuels. We are excited to expand that further to the materials space. This MOU could deliver much needed low-carbon metal at scale to propel decarbonization initiatives in global supply chains across auto, construction, consumer packaging and many more segments.”

About AMG Metals & Materials

AMG Metals & Materials is incorporated by Anil Chalamalasetty and Mahesh Kolli, the founders of Greenko Group, one of India’s leading energy transition solutions providers, and AM Green, a global decarbonization solution provider. Greenko has a near-term operational renewable energy capacity of 10 GW across solar, wind and hydro and is building 100 GWh of single cycle storage capacity across India.

SEOUL, South Korea, April 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Korean skincare favorite Fation, the top-rated trouble-care brand at Olive Young with a near-perfect 4.9/5.0 rating, has officially launched in the U.S. market. Next rookie following after its best selling ‘Trouble’ Line, the Nosca9 Deep Pore Cleansing Foam, hit Amazon in March—and the response has been immediate. Named an Amazon “Overall Pick” and boasting an average rating above 4.7 stars, the product is already gaining momentum among beauty enthusiasts looking to achieve the Korean “glass skin” look.

What sets this cleanser apart is its key ingredient: Retinal—a highly functional next-generation powerhouse often described as a more effective and less irritating upgrade to the widely known Retinol. Rare to use on the cleanser category but backed by the unique technology of Dong-A Pharmaceutical, a leading name in Korea’s pharmaceutical industry for over 94 years, Fation’s proprietary Nano-Retinal RX Complex™ delivers visible pore-tightening benefits with dermatologist-grade precision.

In addition to Retinal, the formula includes rice extract, 17 types of amino acids, and a tannin complex for a well-rounded, skin-friendly deep cleanse. The unique, stretchy texture clings to impurities and excess oil, helping to refine skin texture and minimize enlarged pores.

In celebration of its successful U.S. debut, Fation is offering a limited-time Amazon promotion from April 14 to 23, slashing the price from $15.99 to $11.19 (30% Off).

The Nosca9 line is just the beginning. Fation’s Trouble Soothing range—including toner, serum, cream, and masks for sensitive or acne-prone skin—is also available on Amazon.
