325. Infrastructure construction in the Arctic region

As the saying goes, "The prodigal son does not change his money." ”

As the saying goes, "It's never too late to make amends." ”

"Knowing that mistakes can be corrected, and good is great."

The vast majority of people have awakened their "conscience" in their hearts and have begun to embark on the path of "self-redemption".

They all realize that this is not just a question of the Arctic, nor is it just a question of the survival of polar bears, but a question of the future development of humanity!

Awakened netizens led a group of people, and people began to pay attention to and reflect on their "unenvironmentally friendly" behaviors in daily life, and began to give each other ideas to improve.

Internet celebrities are even more proud of promoting environmental protection, and leading fans to actively participate in online and offline activities such as "afforestation and low-carbon travel", and the whole world seems to be beginning to thrive, bright, and better in a good direction.

……

We've all heard of "frozen ground".

It refers to rocks or soil that are below zero degrees Celsius and contain ice.

Permafrost is divided into short-term, seasonal, and permafrost (also known as permafrost).

The tundra near the Arctic Circle is mostly permafrost.

And the "somewhere" where we often see on the news where the remains of mammoths have been excavated, and where bird carcasses from 46,000 years ago have been found, etc., basically refer to the permafrost area.

But just as ice melts when exposed to heat, permafrost is "rheological", and as the climate warms, permafrost is degraded and permafrost is no longer "permanent".

This means that the permafrost is constantly "thawing", and the permafrost in the Arctic is melting.

The Arctic region has 13 million square kilometers of permafrost, accounting for 15% of the world's land area.

Scientists are said to have detected more than 200 ancient viruses and bacteria in the permafrost.

If the Arctic continues to deteriorate and the permafrost continues to thaw, humanity will face a future that will be even more cruel and cruel than the "end times" depicted.

The thawing of permafrost brings problems far beyond these invisible dangers, and the thawing of permafrost areas will also emit a large amount of methane gas.

Methane is a greenhouse gas 25 times more active than carbon dioxide, and is widely found in natural gas, biogas, and deep coal mines, and is a high-quality gaseous fuel.

It is said that when people fart, they also release a small amount of methane.

Too much methane gas will harm the atmosphere and further exacerbate global warming, forming a vicious circle.

At that time, sea level rise, high temperatures, droughts, and reduced grain production will ......

Someone simulated this series of "future disasters" in the form of animation.

At this moment, everyone is even more at risk, and the awareness of green environmental protection has further risen.

……

The planet is not only a planet for humans, but also a planet for animals.

When human beings began to promote the world's greening and environmental protection activities, animal players were also busy secretly "helping".

The birds brought in the scattered seeds, the squirrels collected the excess fruit from their nests, and even the little mice honestly went back to their nests to drag out the little rations they had hidden, gritted their teeth and stamped their feet, fighting for the future.

They quietly sprinkle seeds in the corners of human players that have been overlooked, follow their example, cultivate the soil, water it, "fertilize" it, and wait for them to grow.

On weekdays, bird players also consciously organize teams to "patrol on duty", keeping an eye on those pests who like to hollow out tree trunks, so as to ensure that most of the new groves can grow vigorously and healthily.

The green plants on the planet, the "planet status" seems to have risen overnight, and their value has doubled.

……

While the whole world is busy with greening and taking the eco-friendly route, players in the Arctic are trying to build infrastructure.

More and more players or people from all over the world have come to the world, and the basic manpower for infrastructure construction is enough.

Players saw the "ice and snow world" in the northeast of China, saw those lifelike ice sculptures, and came up with the idea of building infrastructure in the Arctic region.

The ideal "building" material is ice.

But even the "natural refrigerator" in the Arctic is constantly melting and dissipating, and they want ice, and if they want enough ice to support the huge amount of "infrastructure", they can only do it themselves, and have enough food and clothing.

The system space can be exchanged for an "ice machine", but as soon as the ice comes out, it still faces the "risk" of being melted.

The use of such "building" materials for infrastructure construction will only be a wasted "tofu scum project".

Another question for players is whether there is a way to isolate or reduce the ongoing impact of the greenhouse effect on the Arctic as much as possible.

"Isolation cover? How about this? ”

Lao Tian flipped through the system mall, pointed to one of the "goods" and said.

"Isolation Cover: Encloses the area within the dimension and isolates it from the outside world. Disadvantages: short aging and long cooling cycle. ”

Someone read its product introduction and immediately slapped his thigh: "Hey, yes, that's it!" ”

Then flipped to the settlement position, he was stunned for a few seconds, covered his heart and wailed: "This is clearly a robbery......"

After the howl, he tearfully gave up a large amount of points to exchange the "isolation shield".

Some of the people around who watched the excitement couldn't help but "gloat" and made a sound.

But in the next second, he was slapped in the face by reality indifferently and unreasonably.

There are also two lines of small text next to the opening button of the "isolation shield": "The aging period is short, and the protection duration is matched according to the size of the range." Note: The larger the range, the lower the aging time, please pay attention to replace it in time. ”

"The cooling cycle is long: everything in the world is rare and expensive, how can good things rot on the street? After exchanging the isolation shield once, a cooldown time is generated, and the cooldown time is random, and the product cannot be exchanged again during the cooldown. ”

The people who carefully read the two lines: ......

"Quick, bro, open it and see how old it is."

In anticipation, the first player to redeem the shield placed their finger on the turn button.

After he pressed it, everyone only felt a flash in front of their eyes, and between their breaths, they felt that something was different.

"The statute of limitations is...... 12 hours! ”

The player rubbed his eyes in disbelief and looked again, but the numbers remained the same.

The surrounding players were in an uproar.

The time limit is so short?

"Quick, quick, don't be stunned, see if you can redeem it! No, let's think of another way! ”

Lao Tian pulled his throat to bring the people in a trance back to reality.

Indeed, now is not the time to be in a daze.

It's not to the point of exhaustion, so there's no need to be so anxious.

Players gathered their emotions and looked down at their game system store.

Tang's father and Tang's mother sat around Tang Qinqin, and these days when they came here, they saw with their own eyes what this group of young people were doing, and they were fortunate to participate in it, and they felt a lot in their hearts.

After living for half a lifetime, the second half of their lives turned out to be a little "fantastic", like a dream, but it also reminded them of when they were young.

Who didn't come from a young age?

Young people are full of vitality, vitality, enthusiasm, and the drive to not admit defeat......

And beside this group of young people, they gradually re-felt their long-lost "youth" and long-lost "vitality".

This group of young people will go higher and farther in the future, right?

In order not to have a "generation gap" and "estrangement" with their daughters, they must also keep up with the pace of the times and stride forward!
