Chapter 584: Cruel Ecological Situation
The garbage treatment plant originally belonged to the Jiangcheng environmental department, and the director of the garbage treatment plant was similar to the section chief level of a bureau, but after the restructuring a few years ago, the garbage treatment plant was bought out by private individuals and belonged to the self-financing unit supervised by the relevant departments.
Director Min looked at the boss without the slightest shelf, although he was wearing a suit, but the color of the suit matched the actual environment of the garbage treatment plant, and told the visitors intuitively - I am a waste collector.
Is it profitable to do garbage disposal? Definitely profitable. But no one will do this work regardless of the harsh environment.
The source of income from garbage disposal is mainly divided into two parts, one is the subsidy of Jiangcheng Finance, which will allocate funds according to the amount of garbage disposal in the garbage treatment plant each year, and the other is the money that the garbage treatment plant makes money for garbage sorting and recycling. The former ensures the daily operation and overhead of the waste treatment plant, while the latter is the main profitable part.
As for how profitable it is, just look at Director Min's style.
The gray suit really doesn't look good, but the brand is Armani's, and the watch in his hand doesn't look classy, but the brand is Audemars Piguet's. There is also a green lotus device that you carry with you, and a black tiger leap in the garbage disposal parking lot.
"Knockoffs?" asked a student who knew the brand.
"Tiger Leap must be licensed! Tiger Leap! You don't see Tiger Leap parking? How can a big boss who can afford Tiger Leap buy knockoffs and lose his identity. ”
The products used by Director Min are not copycat products, but licensed goods.
This is enough to illustrate a problem, identity is really a luxury thing that can't be piled up.
However, compared with Director Min, the employees in the garbage dump are not treated so well.
Employees wear uniform green overalls and face masks to work not far away, using the most primitive methods to rummage through the pile of garbage with their hands to recycle the types of garbage that can be recycled, such as iron products, cans, plastic bottles, paper, etc.
Under the reflection of Director Min's luxurious style, they take the meager salary and do the most tiring and dirty work.
The so-called garbage classification implemented by Jiangcheng City also got the most ironic answer here.
In the front part of the residents, most of the residents strictly follow the regulations of garbage classification, and put dry garbage, wet garbage, recyclable garbage, hazardous garbage, etc. in different garbage bins, but when they arrive at the end of the garbage treatment plant, the garbage is mixed together.
Director Min is also very proud to be receiving: "Our garbage disposal is divided into two steps. ”
Director Min compared the "two words" and was full of confidence.
Hearing this, many students have a little doubt in their hearts. Generally speaking, the more steps there are in garbage disposal, the more detailed the treatment will be, why is there only two steps here?
Sure enough, Director Min said, "In the first step, our workers will sort out the garbage that can be recycled. ”
Director Min said as he took everyone on a tour of the garbage disposal site.
When the teachers and students came in just now, they had already seen this process, and the selection of recyclable garbage was not selected by machine intelligence, but by the cooperation of machinery and artificiality.
The excavator digs out a pile of garbage from the garbage mountain and scatters it in the open field, and the workers manually pick it up with their eyes and hands, and the recyclable garbage will be carried away by the tricycle behind them, and the non-recyclable garbage will be piled into small piles by the bulldozer, and then the excavator will turn it over to the loading truck.
"Step two. "Non-recyclable garbage is sent to a landfill five kilometers away. ”
"Gone?" Gong Luyue asked suspiciously.
"It's gone. Director Min said: "What else? Oh! That's right! Also, a few years ago, when we still had small thermal power stations in Jiangcheng, some of our garbage would be sold to these thermal power plants for power generation, but later because of pollution, the small thermal power plants stopped generating electricity, and we couldn't burn the garbage at will, so we had to landfill." ”
Seeing such a messy scene, the students looked at each other and understood the importance of garbage separation.
"Take you to the landfill. Director Min drove the crowd to the landfill two kilometers away.
At the beginning, Jiangcheng built the garbage treatment plant in Minsha County because it was considered that Minsha County is a shallow hilly area, which is the most suitable for landfill treatment of garbage, dumping garbage in hilly ravines, digging pits and covering the soil steps are saved.
The students had seen the blue sea, the lush forests, and the vast grasslands, but they had never seen mountains of garbage with a disgusting smell and no end in sight.
Gong Luyue gave a set of data: "The daily weight of garbage produced by Xia residents is about 1.2 kilograms, and Jiangcheng has an urban population of 8 million, and most of the garbage generated is here. ”
"It's terrible!" said one student, "I only thought that the garbage generated in our dormitory every day was two big bales, and I didn't expect all the garbage to be concentrated here such a shocking scene." ”
The students took pictures one after another, which can be regarded as a day trip to the scenic spots.
Not far away, a truck is dumping garbage, and the truck will dump the garbage at its destination very casually, and after dumping, the bulldozer will push the garbage into the ravine of the hill, which is as simple, rough and effective.
The students also saw that there was no classification of this garbage at all, some of which were easily degradable kitchen waste, some of which were white garbage that still existed after a hundred years, and some of which were hazardous garbage transported from home improvement and factories.
Some sharp-eyed students also saw a lot of dry batteries in the garbage heap.
This garbage is buried here, day after day, year after year, polluting the land so that crops and fruit trees can no longer be planted around, and day after day, year after year, polluting the groundwater here, polluting streams, rivers, and finally the entire ecological environment.
The garbage dump is also home to wild dogs, rats, chickens and other animals that search for food in the garbage dump, as well as sparrows and unknown birds.
It just so happened that Xiao Ming's feet were lying a dead sparrow, its feathers were still shiny, and it seemed that it had just died.
Xiao Ming said: "Yang Li, dissected, pay attention to safety." ”
After a month of classes, the students are very knowledgeable about the rules, and remember to pay attention to safety when doing the dissection of organisms outdoors, otherwise they don't know how these organisms die or whether they are fatal.
"Understood. ”
Yang Li put on the hand table, took out a disposable scalpel and scissors, and easily dissected the sparrow.
When the sparrow's stomach was cut, a shocking scene appeared.
The sparrow's stomach is a variety of colorful pieces of plastic, which it eats as its own food and is strangled to death. Perhaps in the nest of a certain tree, it also feeds these particles to its children as the most delicious food, and sends them to death step by step.
