Chapter 1574 "The Day After Tomorrow" Is Coming!
After more than a month of eliminating locusts, Jiang Hao killed no less than hundreds of millions of them, but he was helpless against this extremely large team.
There were too many locusts and the area covered was too large.
After hundreds of billions of locusts matured in Kenya, Somalia, and Ethiopia, they flew in all directions, all the way to Yemen, Saudi Arabia, South Sudan, Sudan, and Egypt.
After that, they ate all the way, entered Iraq, Iran, and then to Pakistan and India. Jiang Hao chased them all the way, and he didn't know how many he killed during the period, but after the desert locusts arrived in these places, they still covered the sky and caused great damage to local crops.
This is really an inevitable natural disaster.
Jiang Hao is now powerless and has no choice but to leave India and return to Cyprus. Although he only received a very small amount of merit value reward this time, his swordsmanship practice has improved a lot, which is definitely a great gain.
In a few months, Markov got a large amount of cash again. Jiang Hao never disdains the small amount of money and eats as much as he can.
In Bologna, Italy, a meeting is being held, and the G7 Environment Ministers' Meeting is opening.
The so-called G7 is an organization composed of the seven most developed industrialized countries, the United States, Japan, Germany, Britain, France, Italy, and Canada, to jointly discuss and meet major issues.
To put it bluntly, it is a small group formed by the seven countries. For their own interests, they often work together to study and formulate some policies that harm others and benefit themselves.
Of course, there are also positive effects. This environmental conference invited several countries such as Australia and Saudi Arabia to attend the meeting to study global environmental and climate issues together. The meeting lasted for a total of three days.
Professor Jack Hall straightened his collar, walked into the conference hall with a clip, stood on the podium, and nodded slightly to the environmental ministers around him.
"Hello everyone, I'm Jack Hall. Today I'm going to talk about the greenhouse effect and the harm that global warming brings to us."
"I just came back from Antarctica recently, where I conducted research on the ice there. Because of global warming, the ice sheets in Antarctica and the Arctic have melted and collapsed on a large scale this year. The global temperature has risen by about one degree overall before. Since the beginning of this year, the Australian wildfires have spread, emitting large amounts of carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide, causing the problem to further escalate."
As soon as Professor Hall said this, the Australian Minister of the Environment interrupted his speech and said in a somewhat unfriendly tone: "Professor Hall, are you now putting the blame for global warming on Australia? Australia has a wildfire every ten years or so. This is a natural law event, but it is also It has never caused any harm to the world. "
Hall shrugged, "The Australian wildfires are indeed a factor in the rising temperature this year, of course, only a part of it. The meteorite attack we suffered not long ago also caused some damage to the atmosphere. These are all natural disasters."
"If the climate is out of control and warming intensifies, the icebergs will melt and drag the earth into the ice age. There is a precedent for this."
When Hall said this, the Saudi Arabian minister interrupted and said, "I don't understand a little bit. You just said that the climate is warming, but why do you say it will bring us into the ice age?"
Hall nodded. The people here are just officials and don't understand science. He had prepared electronic courseware before. He clicked a button, and a picture was displayed on the big screen, and he explained it to the picture.
"The North Atlantic warm current directly affects the climate of the Northern Hemisphere. After the heat from the sun reaches the equator, it is transported to the north by the ocean currents, which involves the ocean thermohaline circulation. Global warming causes the ocean temperature to rise, accelerates the melting of icebergs, and causes more fresh water to flow into the ocean. The increase in ocean surface temperature and the decrease in seawater salinity may slow down or even completely stagnate the thermohaline circulation. Without the thermohaline circulation, the heat energy from the equator will not be able to be transmitted to the North Atlantic region, the global heat balance will be broken, and the high-latitude regions will become very cold, which means the arrival of the ice age."
Another minister asked: "When do you think this will happen and how big the impact will be?"
Professor Hall thought for a while, "I'm not sure, it may take decades or hundreds of years, but I know that if we don't protect the earth now, reduce exhaust emissions, and let the greenhouse effect continue, our descendants will definitely pay a heavy price."
At this time, the U.S. Department of Environment The Minister shook his head and said, "If you say so, the global economy will lose hundreds of billions of dollars. Who will bear the consequences? I think what you said is a bit alarmist. Who knows what will happen in a few hundred years?"
Professor Hall was a little anxious and raised his voice, "Excuse me, Mr. Minister, if we don't take necessary actions, the price we pay will be even greater, even devastating. Our climate is already very fragile. At the rate we burn crude oil and pollute the environment, the glaciers will disappear soon. You may see the arrival of the Ice Age in your lifetime."
The US Environment Minister smiled disdainfully, "Professor Hall, our economy is as fragile as the environment. Okay, let's stop here today."
Hall left the meeting room with the clip in his arms. After returning to his hotel, he took off his suit and threw it on the bed, pulled off his tie, took out a bottle of wine from the wine cabinet next to him, poured himself a glass, put in a few ice cubes, and drank a big sip.
He still couldn't calm down. He had finally won the opportunity to speak at the G7 Environment Ministers' Meeting. He hoped to persuade these bigwigs to pay attention to the greenhouse effect.
However, at the meeting, the environment ministers of various countries who should be most concerned about the environment were indifferent to this and only cared about the economy.
There are now rumors that in order for the United States to restore its economy as soon as possible, they have applied to withdraw from the Paris Environmental Agreement. From now on, they will no longer be bound by any environmental treaties, and they will become more and more unscrupulous in destroying the environment in the future.
Professor Hall has foreseen that disaster will occur in the future, and he hopes to prevent it all, but his power is too weak. He is only an environmental researcher and a university professor, and his influence can be said to be minimal.
Hall was a little frustrated and took another sip of wine.
what to do?
He teamed up with environmental professors from various countries and continued to lobby heads of state. He felt that the effect might not be very good.
Suddenly he thought of a person, that prophet, Jiang.
Can he find him and ask him to help warn other countries? He has watched all Jiang Hao's prophecy videos.
Jiang Hao is an official of the United Nations Disaster Reduction Agency, and his research direction is also in natural disasters. Hall has seen Jiang Hao explaining the greenhouse effect and natural disasters in Jiang Hao's previous videos, and he will definitely agree with his research. and perspective.
More importantly, Jiang Hao is now the most famous prophet in the world. His attention is now greater than that of the president of a country. Especially after predicting the meteorite incident, everyone in the world agreed that he was a prophecy. Master, some have even called him a prophet.
If he is allowed to issue a warning, it will definitely attract great attention from all countries. Perhaps with the joint efforts of all countries, this future disaster can be avoided.
But how to find Jiang Hao?
He thought about it and finally thought of a friend, Director Mark of the United Nations Disaster Reduction Agency. He had attended an environmental conference with him and had met him once. Maybe he could ask him for help.
It has to be said that Hall has really found the right person. Now the only person in the world who can contact Jiang Hao may be Mark.
After receiving Professor Hall's request, Mark tried to send an email to Jiang Hao. After Jiang Hao received it, he knew that a Professor Hall was looking for him. After he learned that Professor Hall's full name was Jack Hall, After that, I immediately remembered, isn’t this the professor in the movie The Day After Tomorrow?
Is "The Day After Tomorrow" coming? !
Jiang Hao thought for a while and got in touch with Professor Hall. They talked about environmental protection issues. The two had a lot in common. Professor Hall made a request, hoping that Jiang Hao could publish a speech on controlling exhaust emissions and reducing the greenhouse effect. , Jiang Hao happily agreed.
In the end, the two agreed to meet at a seaside garden hotel in Greece.
Hall was in Italy, Jiang Hao was in Cyprus, and Greece was right in the middle. The two met at the hotel a day later, and Hall gave Jiang Hao a hug.
"Hello, Mr. Jiang Hao, should I call you Mr. Great Prophet?" Hall said with a smile.
Jiang smiled and said, "Hello, Professor Hall."
On the hotel balcony, with the sea breeze blowing, the two chatted about the greenhouse effect. Hall told Jiang Hao that they encountered a crisis of ice breaking during their expedition in Antarctica. Now the ice caps in Antarctica and the North Pole are melting on a large scale. If once If too much fresh water is injected and the movement of heat and salt in the ocean is blocked, disaster will really strike, perhaps in decades or hundreds of years.
But Jiang Hao knew that the disaster might be more serious than what Professor Hall analyzed, and it was already brewing, and it was extremely fierce.
As for the reason, he couldn't analyze it clearly. Who called this a disaster world? All kinds of disasters could happen.
"Mr. Jiang Hao, I wonder if you are willing to use your name to warn other countries and tell them to pay attention to environmental protection, otherwise disasters will strike in the future. We should try our best to avoid all this." Hall said looking at Jiang Hao.
Jiang Hao squinted his eyes and thought for a while, then said in a deep voice: "Yes, and it's not just a warning, but a prediction. I'm going to publish a new prediction video."
Hall was shocked. He had seen all of Jiang Hao's prediction videos. They were all major events so far, and they had all come true. He had just heard himself talking about the greenhouse effect and the coming of the Ice Age. Could it be that he had a premonition of something?
Professor Hall swallowed and whispered: "What are you planning to predict? Can I know in advance?"
Jiang Hao looked at the sapphire blue ocean outside the hotel. Under the warm sunshine, people were walking and playing on the white beach. All of this might disappear in the near future.
Jiang Hao said in a low voice, "In a few months, the earth will usher in catastrophic climate changes. Tornadoes, tsunamis, and blizzards will follow one after another. Extreme cold will fall, and high latitudes will become icy and snowy."
Professor Hall was shocked, "God, is this a new prophecy?!"
