Chapter 1798 Upyouralley (7)
During the Cold War standoff in the 1960s, it was not only the Americans who tried to make weapons that could affect the weather, but the Soviets were no exception. For this reason, the United Nations formally adopted a convention banning the use of climate weapons in 1977, but those who were busy with the arms race The two countries still go their own way.
Although James Bond is fake, British spies have stolen a lot of intelligence from the United States and Russia, including the United States collecting weather reports from airports around the world, and the Soviet Union sending scientists to investigate the causes of extreme cold weather, because whether it is Napoleon was still Germany during World War II, and in a sense was defeated by cold weather.
If this kind of weather can be manipulated artificially, then Russia will have an indestructible "bronze wall". Compared with the United States using rain bombs and silver iodide to create floods and droughts, this extreme cold weather is more like a defensive weapon. It may be part of the Soviet capital defense plan. At that time, the Soviet Union was several kilometers deep underground for fear of nuclear strikes. An air-raid shelter was dug everywhere.
Corruption is everywhere, and there are many people who use the Star Wars plan and weather weapons to make a budget. No one knows whether these meteorological weapons are used or not. Vietnam is already rainy during the rainy season. It is hard to see whether manual intervention works or not. Cuba may have been suffering from a drought at that time.
The biggest feature of weather weapons is that they can't find evidence. After all, any human power is insignificant in the face of natural disasters.
However, people can still hear some "inside information" from the Department of Defense, which makes people feel that this is really done by the Americans. Their experiments are successful. With "iron proof" they have deterrence, enough to scare the enemy to the cowardly. To the point, as long as you are afraid of them, these people are not a threat.
Perhaps personal power is small, and quantitative changes produce qualitative changes, which can also produce amazing effects.
Chaos theory is often used for weather forecasting. Although this theory makes weather forecasting more difficult, some people still use this theory to build mathematical models and use supercomputers to perform calculations, such as the meteorologist in the movie "The Day After Day". It's just that he studied paleometeorology.
Few people in Britain don't know Darwin. Chapter 12 of Darwin's Origin of Species mentions the homogeneity of terrestrial animals and plants, which means that although the north and south poles are separated in half by the tropical and temperate zones in the middle, they can The polar creatures of the two poles are closely related.
The fish in the deep sea is understandable. Originally, the seas of the earth are basically connected. Before the opening of the Panama Canal, Darwin found that the marine fish on both sides of Panama had a high similarity. That is to say, it is very likely that the Panama area was a sea area long, long ago, and the two sides were separated only after the sea level dropped.
The distribution of terrestrial animals and plants cannot be explained by this method. Some people say that migratory birds say, but even migratory birds cannot fly from the North Pole to the South Pole. They use "airdrop" seeds to the South Pole.
Siberian swans often go to Japan to spend the winter, and migratory birds are of course the principle of getting nearby. There is also a hypothesis that in the ice age, the world became cold, including tropical regions. Later, the ice age passed and the temperature rose. The animals and plants suitable for life in the frigid zone could not adapt to the humid and hot tropical climate and became extinct on their own.
This is also impossible. Even the tropics are so cold that organisms in the frigid zone can survive. The species on the earth have long been collectively destroyed. Darwin agrees that the ice age alternates between the northern and southern hemispheres. This cooling process is gradual, not like " It's so extreme in "The Day After Tomorrow." For example, saber-toothed tigers and mammoths all live near the polar regions, but they have a limit to their cold tolerance. When polar animals in the northern hemisphere find it unsuitable for their survival, they migrate to the south. In the process, polar creatures will gradually replace temperate animals and temperate animals. They were rushed to remote areas. When the temperature turned around, the Arctic creatures retreated north, and the squeezed away temperate animals returned to their original habitats.
Compared with the complete mammoth remains found in the frozen soil of Siberia, the mammoth hair found in the Americas is not so long anymore. This may be to facilitate its heat dissipation.
As for the two-level homogeneity of terrestrial plants, such as the fact that the Arctic alpine plant such as Wolongdan appeared on Tierra del Fuego, it is still "the responsibility of albatross." puzzle.
Human activities have also brought some species that would not have appeared locally, such as wild dogs and cats in Australia, and invasive species such as wild oats. Humans brought cats and dogs to Australia to accompany themselves, or to let cats catch mice. As a result, cats did not catch mice but instead caught Australian native animals.
Wild oats were taken carelessly. It grows like weeds in the local area, because there are no natural enemies and only artificial weeding, otherwise it will take away the nutrients of the grain and reduce the grain production.
The main planting areas of natural rubber trees are concentrated in Southeast Asia, which is the area covered by the Indonesian tsunami. Among them, Indonesia's main rubber plantations are located in Sumatra, which is also the most affected place this time. Many speculators think that the rubber should rise sharply. , But after watching the market, Lucius found that the futures price of rubber had fallen.
Not only rubber, the trading prices of other industrial products have also continued to be sluggish, and even the same disaster-stricken Thailand has introduced policies to increase rubber prices, but the transaction format is still not optimistic.
There is an idiom called things hurt others. It is a metaphor for seeing similar deaths and feeling sad when thinking about their future fate. Sad market atmosphere is not conducive to business. The essence of business is to make people happy. Happiness is the ecosystem of business. .
Sometimes it's not happy to live too well. A diamond ring is a scam, but a woman is willing to wear a big diamond ring to show off everywhere, telling people that it was given by her husband, and it can be regarded as a pledge of ownership for her husband. Save him not knowing how much trouble.
Lucius is now wearing a wedding ring. Although she was married a bit early in her early 20s, most women saw the ring on "Alessandro" and walked away with interest.
If the cashier wanted to embezzle, she deliberately did not use the cash register when checking out the cash. The customer gave her the money and she put it in her pocket. If the boss hired a supervisor to rectify this phenomenon, it would not only cost more money, It will also affect the enthusiasm of employees.
At this time, if the boss leaves a note on the cash register, it says "If you buy a meal without a cash register, you will get a free meal, please call xxxxxxx".
Of course, customers who can eat for free are willing, but most customers don't know why they want to leave this note.
In fact, the boss did this to let the customer supervise for himself. If the cashier corrupts the customer, he can call to report it. The cashier knows that the customer will not call, and the boss also knows that the cashier will not remind the customer why he wants to make a note. The function of the note is to be a deterrent, and everyone will be in peace if they act according to the rules.
As for why a Coke company bought a French milk company, Lucius heard that Southeast Asia was suffering from a drought. It hadn't rained for a long time, and the infrastructure was destroyed by the tsunami. Many people had problems drinking water, and some areas had dysentery. symptom.
Selling purified water would be a good deal at this time, but now that the Americans are buying Danone, will they have time to meet the needs of Southeast Asia's post-disaster reconstruction?
The other is Alstom's power plant project in Indonesia. Has it been affected by the tsunami this time?
A British scholar who studies fluid mechanics pointed out that although Sri Lanka does not have a big breakwater, there are many natural coral reefs. However, because of the development of tourism in recent years, the coral reefs have been mined and sold as handicrafts to tourists. This natural breakwater has been lost. The damage caused by the tsunami is even greater. There is a place called Sikkaduwa where the coral reef is carefully taken care of. When the waves arrive, the coral reef blocks the big waves. Sikkaduwa is not seriously damaged.
Taking and stealing coral is like digging a hole in a dyke. It restores the ecology and restores the coral reef to its original appearance. Maybe the coral reef can really work.
Alstom and Danone are both private companies. The executives of these two companies are not within the scope of French administrative law. Just as Louisiana has civil law, French administrative law is also a case, similar to common law. Moreover, some companies with strategic value have also been nationalized. The appointment or dismissal of the person in charge is an administrative decision, and they must be governed by administrative law just like civil servants.
Private companies are not included in this list.
Alstom is responsible for the charging business of French nuclear submarines.
Although the Americans dealt with the French, what would other allies think after seeing this trick?
It's no wonder Kingsley grew old so quickly after becoming the Minister of Magic.
This international secrecy law really protects wizards. At first, Salazar Slytherin played with the Muggle kids near the castle. Later, they had to go to see the dragon. Not only did these Muggles lose their lives, but Lanza Racha's mother also died in the dragon's breath.
Then Hogwarts had the school motto "Do not disturb the dragon while sleeping".
Sometimes too curiosity will kill the cat.
Cats have nine lives, how many do people have?
What determines our destiny is not our ability, but our choice.
Like those citizens who escaped the tsunami in the movie and hid in the library. When they chose to follow the police and listen to a student's words, they made their judgments that they felt were correct.
Stay in the library will also face the problem of lack of food.
Leaving seemed correct and rational at the time, and it was the choice of most people.
At that moment, life and death were judged, Jack had already done what he could, he did a very good job, even better than some adults, not only saved his small team, but also found medicine for his beloved girl .
That's it, he doesn't need to save all mankind, only fools can do that.
