Much of the Western world paused over Easter weekend gathering with family, hunting for eggs, and enjoying a moment of spring stillness, the rhythm of global industry didn’t miss a beat. In China, where Easter isn’t observed, factories stayed open, shipping routes stayed busy, and the machinery of international trade kept humming along. It served as a subtle but powerful reminder: while we rest, the world keeps moving.

This is how it’s going to play out.

A dose of future retrospection. 

Have you seen the buzz on TikTok?? If you’re passionate enough, you could get your chanel bag for 20p.

This year’s Easter weekend felt like more than just a holiday. It was a snapshot of a world caught between economic rivalry and technological progress. Ongoing trade tensions between China and the West, especially the United States continue to shape everything from tariffs to tech bans. The “decoupling” buzzword keeps circulating in boardrooms and headlines, yet beneath the surface, the reliance remains.

Nowhere is this more evident than in the booming portable power industry. As the world races toward renewable energy and off-grid independence, China remains the backbone of innovation and manufacturing. The Jackery Explorer 240 V2 Portable Power Station, a compact and eco-conscious energy solution, is a great example. Designed for adventurers, campers, and digital nomads, it delivers quiet, clean energy in a lightweight form. Pair it with the Foldable Trolley, a convenient accessory that makes transporting your power station effortless and you’re set.

If you need even more energy independence…

The Jackery Explorer 1000 Plus Portable Power Station offers a serious upgrade. With expanded capacity and multiple charging options, it’s perfect for powering devices during extended outdoor adventures, emergency backup situations, or even remote work setups. And yes many of its key components are still sourced or assembled in China.

So even as some nations try to distance themselves from China through trade policies and supply chain shifts, the reality is more nuanced. We want independence, whether that’s personal freedom with portable power, or national sovereignty over tech infrastructure, but the path still runs through deeply intertwined global systems.

As Easter came and went, and the pastel colors faded, ships sailed, factories worked, and innovations like the Jackery quietly powered lives. The world kept spinning. And as we move toward a future of cleaner energy and complex geopolitics, one thing is clear: rest may be local, but progress is global. Check out our shop!

Back to the present:  Have a happy Easter weekend!!
