Volume V, Chapter 3, The Ghost Meeting (I), July 2118
The agenda after the end of the voting was devoted to the statements made by the representatives.
The representative of his country reiterated his previous proposal and expressed his incomprehension of the outcome of the vote. Of course, this is just a routine item for a war of words on the international stage. Although the spokesman was puzzled, at the meeting, it was just talking.
After the representative of country R spoke, the representative of country reiterated that the crisis in country A is not only the crisis of country A itself, but also the global crisis, and that country A, under the spirit of internationalism, has been fighting against unknown creatures strongly, but now it is being questioned in terms of carbon emissions, which is extremely unfair to country A and violates the spirit of internationalism. Therefore, Country A had good reasons to reject the proposal.
After the statements made by the representatives of R and A, there was a statement by the representative of C.
"Carbon dioxide, methane, and other greenhouse gases......
The representative of country C spoke in a calm but confident voice: "We see the common enemy of mankind. ”
When the representative of country C brought up the topic of greenhouse gases, some of the delegates at the meeting appeared absent-minded, which also means that some countries on the planet have never really cared about environmental issues, and these countries are just trying to reap the benefits of the carbon financial system and the Paris Agreement.
"According to the analysis of China's meteorological satellites, there is a major abnormal ...... in the recent increase in carbon emissions in country A." The representative of State C continued to speak.
(Exceptional?) What anomaly? It can't be alarmist, right? Some of those attending the virtual meeting were skeptical, but others became focused.
"The anomaly is manifested in the following aspects......" At the same time, a set of satellite photographs was put in front of everyone's eyes, said the representative of country C.
"The first anomaly," the representative of country C pointed to the satellite photo, "the areas where carbon emissions have increased significantly are concentrated in the western part of country A." ”
Carbon emissions are concentrated in the western part of country A, in fact, there is no need for the representative of country C to point out, and the representatives of country A, country R, F and other countries have also noticed that it is not difficult for countries with "carbon monitoring meteorological satellites" to find this phenomenon.
However, often, there are different reasons behind the same phenomenon, which can lead to different conclusions. In the statement of country R just now, the representatives of these two countries believe that the regions with a large increase in carbon emissions are concentrated in the western part of country A, which means that the production and life in the western part of country A have returned to the level before the plague. The implication is that now that production and life have been restored, what reason is there to be cheeky to continue to eat and take cards and ask for international assistance?
The proposal of country R is also put forward in response to this logic. Justified.
In the face of the doubts of country R, country A itself could not produce any strong evidence. After all, for many years, country A has not really cared about local and global carbon emissions, and the relevant satellite technology and analysis technology has only stayed at the level of meteorological satellites 40 years ago. For the abnormal carbon emission phenomenon in the western part of its own country, country A also did a lot of analysis before the meeting, but due to the lack of satellite technical support and the refusal to lower its position to seek help from country C, which was once lagging behind itself, in its analysis, there are many guessing components, and the data correlation is not high. So much so that analysts in country A can only conclude that the endless war with unknown creatures such as "cerberus" has mainly caused the increase in carbon emissions.
This was also pointed out by the representative of country A in his statement at the meeting just now. You must know that according to the data provided by country A itself, the fighting has never stopped in the past year since the emergence of the plague and unknown creatures, and the battle of more than 10,000 human models has been fought more than 60 times, almost 4 times a month and 1 time a week. The representative of country A believes that no other country in the world can bear this kind of attrition, except for country A, and if country R had been replaced, country R would have collapsed long ago.
Therefore, at the meeting, R always believed that the increase in carbon emissions shows that the economy of country A has recovered, and as for country A's defense that the increase in carbon emissions is due to the endless war, it is only country A's own statement, which has no evidence and is not convincing.
It was clear that the representative of State C was not on the side of either R or A.
"We are on the side of the truth on the basis of facts...... "For the first anomaly, our analysis suggests that it is not simple, that is, perhaps carbon emissions from economic recovery, but this is the least likely." It is also possible that the war arose, but this possibility was later ruled out......"
(What exactly is the reason for that?) Everyone looked at the representative of country C, who was speaking.
"We analysed 'stratigraphic carbon emissions'......" said the representative of country C.
The so-called "stratum carbon emissions" are naturally familiar to the scientific advisers "present" at the meeting. It is a satellite technology that monitors carbon emissions on the ground and underground, and the emergence of this technology is mainly to monitor the greenhouse emissions of ancient organisms in the process of thawing the tundra of the Arctic and Antarctic tundras, and to obtain statistical data, which is part of the "community with a shared future for mankind" project led by country C.
Since this technology is thankless and has no economic benefits, only country C has possessed it so far. Everyone here knows that country A has the ability and money, but it has not developed this technology. And country R, it is said that because there is no money, it does not engage in this technology. Gilman (Germany) is engaged in it, but it has not been put into use.
The "stratum carbon emissions" technology can distinguish the details of carbon emissions, which are emitted on the ground and which are emitted underground, and the representative of country C made a filter filter on the satellite image to show the changes in the data of underground emissions in the form of cloud maps.
"More than 80% of it is underground!" After some explanations, the representative of country C finally came to that conclusion.
(What?) Underground discharge? President Reagan of country A can hardly sit still, his first reaction is that someone is doing a huge underground project behind his back, like "Area 51", but this is obviously ridiculous, the current economy of country A is extremely sluggish, where is the budget to do these things? Wouldn't the people of country C suggest that country A is running a huge, unknown underground project (underground nuclear test)?
"The people of country C are really insidious!" On Air Force One, a staff officer sat and whispered, indignant. President Reagan motioned for the staff officer to calm down.
Secretary-General Zulrama was also taken aback: if it weren't for the virtual meeting, if it wasn't for the moderator who controlled the speaking authority of the delegates from all countries, the whole venue would have exploded by now. Secretary-General Zulrama motioned for the representative of country C to continue.
"The second anomaly," said the representative of country C, listed other images that President Reagan and some of his staff members recognized at a glance: a map of country A's geothermal resources.
"The thermal resources of country A are mainly concentrated in the western part of country A," said the representative of country C. "We can easily see the pattern by comparing these pictures with the carbon emission distribution map listed above." The extent of the map heat resources is the same as that of the carbon emission map. ”
The participants digested a little what the representative of country C had said. (What does this mean?) Could it be said? Vaguely, President Reagan was already aware.
After a long time, President Reagan said, "This is indeed an underground project," he said, glancing at the generals and staff officers in the Air Force One conference room, "Yes, gentlemen...... But it's not a human underground project, it's not human. ”
"They are carbon-based lifeforms, and geothermal energy, for all carbon-based lifeforms, is of great significance to self-evident. If they don't rely on geothermal energy, what other energy do they rely on? On Air Force One, someone whispered.
"I don't see it that way, they may not rely on geothermal energy, their owners may give them more energy, relying on geothermal energy alone...... How can it be? "There are also opposing voices.
"I've long suspected the existence of underground networks." General Hagel said, his tone, angry, full of regret, everyone knows, perhaps, General Hagel is trying to say: "It's a pity that we didn't get the stratigraphic data of carbon emissions earlier, and we should have asked Country C for help earlier." ”
President Reagan sensed that beneath the Andes, and even throughout the western part of Country A, a powerful unknown force was emerging. This power, powerful and cunning.
Since the fierce battles in Raccoon City and Las Vegas, the scale of the attacks of "Cerberus" and "Giant Bat" has not become more violent, and the fighting has even become a little sporadic and petty. It felt like the enemy's entire legion had been scattered, and the generals of the army agreed that the unknown creature was gradually weakening, and that country A would soon win the war......
(Unexpectedly, this is just a disguise of the enemy.) President Reagan sighed silently in his heart. Although the data provided by the representative of country C had yet to be further verified, he believed that, even if it was verified, the facts should not be far from what the representative of country C had stated.
As the rest of the attendees may have realized, there was a brief silence in the room.
"Are there any other anomalies?" Secretary-General Zulrama asked the representative of country C.
Of course, there is data collected by Sima Aya at the Raccoon subway station and in her laboratory in the desert of Denver...... However, the evidence involves espionage......
"No more. Thank you. After reiterating the strategic height of the "community with a shared future for mankind", the representative of country C ended his speech, thinking that he might have said enough.
Soon, the 105th (225th) meeting of the United Nations Carbon Finance Conference entered a stage of free discussion. At this stage, it was not on the agenda of the meeting, but now, the representatives of various countries have indicated that the statement made by the representative of country C needs to be discussed freely within each country, and that the discussion is something that has little to do with this meeting.
Secretary-General Zulrama had to postpone other items on the agenda of the meeting.
"The people of country C are really insidious!" On Air Force One, a staff officer sat and whispered, indignant. President Reagan motioned for the staff officer to calm down.
