💻 Share of US Online Undergraduates Declined With Higher Incomes in 2022
In 2022, 41% of US undergraduates studying online came from households earning less than $40,000, reflecting cost savings in tuition, transport, and housing. As income increased, undergraduate online participation dropped. On the other hand, 18% of postgraduates earning over $150,000 favored online learning, balancing work and family commitments. This trend highlights affordability and flexibility as key drivers.
⚛️ China’s Nuclear Power Capacity Grew Over 50% in 5 Years
China's nuclear power capacity has grown by over 50% in the past five years, driven by its commitment to reducing carbon emissions and diversifying energy sources. Since 2010, China has aggressively expanded its nuclear infrastructure, investing heavily in advanced technology and building new power plants. This strategy aims to reduce coal reliance and achieve long-term energy sustainability.
🌏 India’s DTP3 Coverage Rose Nearly 90% From 1980 to 2022
India’s DTP3 immunization coverage grew by nearly 90% between 1980 and 2022, rising from just 6% to 93%. This consistent increase reflects expanded vaccination campaigns, better healthcare access, and government programs like Mission Indradhanush. These efforts reduced preventable diseases and mortality rates among children, contributing to improved public health outcomes nationwide.
