Rebirth of the Tech Madman - Chapter 1067
…
In the United States, environmental protection can be regarded as a politically correct proposition. Many politicians use it to gain political and governance capital, while U.S. Vice President Al Gore regards himself as an environmentalist.
It must be pointed out that the real world is unimaginably complex, that is, “the water is too deep” as the saying goes.
As far as its core concept is concerned, environmentalism seeks to balance the relationship between humans and various natural systems, so that each part can achieve a suitable sustainable development status.
From this perspective, environmental protection represents the civilization of human development.
But in actual implementation, good things can easily turn into bad things.
For example, similar to dog lovers who promote dogs to a more important position than humans, radical environmentalism will oppose human progress.
For another example, in terms of politics and governance, environmental protection issues have evolved into ideological disputes.
In addition, people with ulterior motives will use the name of environmental protection to achieve goals that are not compatible with environmental protection.
Take California, which is undergoing drastic reforms in the electric power industry. Due to the strict environmental protection laws, California has no funds to invest in the construction of new power stations. The original power stations are shut down and only some so-called hydropower plants and nuclear power plants that meet the standards are left. .
In this case, California, which is also opening up the power sector to outside the state, is sliding step by step to the hunting trap set by the energy giants, and environmental protection has become a tool used by others.
However, since it is the correct governance, then these kinds of bits and pieces are definitely not suitable to be put on the table, and politicians are still more willing to talk about those lofty topics.
Al Gore took the lead in playing the environmental protection card. Not long ago, in late July, he ran to Niagara Falls, New York, intending to grab his reputation, but he did not expect to be self-defeating.
The US vice president chose this place because of a chemical pollution spill that had a major impact on the United States and the international community in its history.
As early as 1836, more than a century and a half ago, the United States had plans to build a canal between Lake Erie and Lake Ontario to connect the two major water systems.
The survey report produced by the engineers at that time showed that Lewiston was the most suitable candidate area. The area was not only conducive to ship navigation, but with a drop of more than 100 meters, it could also create artificial waterfalls and provide hydraulic resources.
However, in terms of the level of social development at the time, this idea was so great that it could only be a matter of fact.
It was not until more than half a century later, in 1892, that a man named william_love——William Love came to Niagara Falls and began to realize this idea.
In William Love’s blueprint, this canal can provide power for a modern town with a population of 600,000; ships passing by can also make this place an important traffic artery.
After William Love completed the preparations for recruiting troops and obtaining corresponding permits from the government and the government, the construction of the canal began in May 1894 and was named “love” by William Love. It is called “love river”.
While Love River was being built, many factories were opened on both sides of the canal.
It is a pity that this vast project was a bit unlucky, and soon caught up with an economic crisis.
Capitalism is this virtue. Seeing the situation is not good, investors are immediately scattered, and the canal that is still being excavated will not disappear.
Later, Hooke Electrochemical Company took a fancy to the unfinished and abandoned Love River. Because the bottom of the canal is a waterproof substrate, it can be used to stack waste from chemical production.
So between 1943 and 1953, Hooke Electrochemical Company sealed up about 20,000 tons of chemical waste into iron drums, put them in Love River, and then covered the top of the canal with mud.
In 1953, Hooke Electrochemical Company sold this area of approximately 65,000 square meters to the Education Commission of Niagara Falls at a price of one U.S. dollar. At the same time, it also pointed out in the treaty that the area was Store waste from the chemical production process.
The tragedy begins at this time!
In 1954, the Niagara Falls City Board of Education began to build the 99th Street Elementary School here; when the school was completed in 1955, about 400 students attended the opening ceremony.
Later, the local municipal government decided to transform this area into a residential area for low-income families and single families.
After more than 20 years of this, the Love River chemical pollution leak broke out. The environmental protection department of the US federal government also intervened in the investigation, and even alerted the then US President Jimmy Carter. It approved the implementation of emergency economic assistance to the Aihe area and evacuated local families from the contaminated area.
There is no need to repeat the significance of the impact of this incident. Occidental Petroleum, the parent company of Hooke Electrochemical Company, paid more than 180 million U.S. dollars to clean up pollutants and evacuate residents.
I have to say that Al Gore’s routine is very deep.
Today, more than twenty years later, Americans have almost forgotten the place of Love River. And Al Gore worked tirelessly to personally re-excavate this historical relic that once shocked the world. It was really unstoppable.
Things have progressed as the American Vice President wanted. Standing in the Love River community that was completely evacuated in 1978, Al Gore announced loudly that he “discovered” the Love River community.
Next, Al Gore did one thing, that is, in order to get a stunning photographic effect, let his rich friends who support him put 500 million gallons of water into a dry river, so that his boat can Keep drifting.
What capacity concept is a gallon?
It is one-fifth of the pure water bucket installed on an ordinary drinking fountain.
It is estimated that the rich man directly bought 100 million barrels of drinking water and poured it into the river, so that Al Gore, who he supported, could have fun.
The complex world is so ironic. Dog lovers may not really love dogs, and environmentalists may not protect the environment personally.
How could Al Gore and the opponent of the Democratic Party let go of such a handle that came to the door?
The first problem was Yahoo News on the Internet, which reported Al Gore’s artificial river rafting incident in the form of pictures and texts.
Perhaps the workers in the IT industry prefer binary and octal systems, so the editor of Yahoo News directly multiplied 500 million gallons of water by eight to turn it into 4 billion gallons of water.
In this way, the shocking nature of this news has taken on a new level.
Facing the reporter’s questioning, Al Gore’s face was pale and speechless.
He is not so stupid enough to defend himself in a desperate way: I obviously only used 500 million gallons of water. Who really said it became 4 billion gallons?
But the more you hold back in this way, the more you can’t argue, Al Gore can’t catch the chicken, and finally provokes a commotion.
Where is the real lethality of this storm?
Although U.S. President Bill Clinton was not impeached and stepped down by the U.S. Congress because of the “zipper door”; the American people also looked at the brilliant economic achievements during his tenure and did not deliberately conceal the ugliness, but they were right. At the request of the next US president, it will be impossible to turn one eye off in the same way.
In other words, the new president of the United States elected next year must first do it, and must withstand the test in terms of morality.
Al Gore, who took the lead in stealing the limelight, regarded himself as an environmentalist, but wasted 4 billion gallons of water for the sake of face-saving projects.
Saying one thing in person and doing another thing behind the back, why do you win the people’s trust?
Al Gore’s current state, described as “destroy before he was born,” is a bit exaggerated, but he was definitely injured by a crit and was smashed by a stick so he didn’t dare to move!
Seeing this scene, the democratic party could not sit still up and down.
You know, in next year’s U.S. presidential election, the Republican Party is the offensive party that wants to make a comeback. The Democratic Party is the defensive party seeking to take the lead, and U.S. Vice President Al Gore uses his position to accumulate The prestige of the United States is unmatched by other people in the Democratic Party. Even in 1997, when Bill Clinton just started his second presidency, he had already confirmed his participation in the two-thousand-year US presidential election.
In this case, compared with the more than a dozen candidates who have emerged from the Republican Party and the Party, it is not obvious that Xiaobushi, the people in the Democratic Party who challenged Al Gore, are better than those in the Democratic Party who challenged Al Gore. There are few, almost only New Jersey Senator Bill Bradley.
Objectively speaking, Al Gore, with his two-term U.S. Vice President qualifications, really has no opponents in the Democratic Party. Even if a Bill Bradley emerges, he can only be an escort.
However, when Yahoo News reported on the artificial river rafting incident in response to Al Gore’s harsh words, and unabashedly stated that the richest man resolutely resisted this candidate, the situation suddenly became more delicate.
Bill Bradley’s background is a bit special. He was originally an NBA star. He represented the US National Basketball Team in the Olympic Games in 1964 and won the gold medal. In the 1965 NBA Draft, he was selected by New York City. The Knicks used the right of priority to pick away, but because of the Rhodes scholarship, they gave priority to go to Oxford University in the United Kingdom, but they still helped the New York Knicks in 1970 and the New York Knicks after officially starting their nba career. In 1973, he won the nba championship and was also selected as an nba All-Star.
Therefore, in terms of frantically gaining prestige for the presidential election, Bill Bradley, who is under the halo of the former nba star, is equivalent to opening up in the sports world.
On the other hand, Tang Huan is recognized as a super-big gold master in the sports world. The luxurious toys in his hands, no matter which one, are Xiaguang Wandao and Ruicai Thousands, and countless people bow their heads to worship.
Not to mention the British Chelsea club, which has achieved the “Triple Crown” dominance and has been chased by many Russian super-rich, only in the case of the US nba, the richest man once again surreptitiously let his Golden State Warriors take over the dominance in 1980 The Los Angeles Lakers of the 1950s ruled the 1990s.
To put it bluntly, Bill Bradley wanted to go back to his natal home, nba, to seek support. Tang Huan, who had already given Al Gore a crit in the Internet media, could deliver a threatening and unexpected assist.
There have been enough media reports to show that Bill Bradley and Golden State Warriors head coach Phil Jackson, Tianzi star Michael Jordan and others have close contacts and gain support. It is certain.
Looking at the power of Mr. richest man as a “poop-cutter”, and following the US presidential election in 1992, the Texas super-rich Ross Perot, who personally ended up, the Democratic Party quickly entrusted the United States. Hillary Clinton, the first lady, came forward to make peace.
But in the face of Tang Huan’s tough remarks, Hillary Clinton could only stare at him, nothing could be done.
Now, who dares to force the richest man? Who can threaten the richest man?
The biggest crackdown against Tang Huan on the surface is the United States of America v. Zheru Software Corporation’s monopoly case, but it is not “difficult”, even in order to make way for a full listing, the entire industry petitioned and forced it to be suspended?
She touched the gray-nosed Hillary Clinton, and she didn’t give it for nothing. She should have been mentally prepared for a while, and said, “Tang, now the Democratic Party cannot replace the candidate with the highest hopes. , And there are no candidates with sufficient qualifications to change, so I beg you, at least not to affect the process of nominating candidates for the Democratic Party’s president, such as supporting Bill Bradley at all costs like market dumping.”
Speaking of this, Hillary Clinton smiled bitterly: “Bill Bradley’s campaign platform is full of contradictions. On the one hand, he promised to substantially increase investment in education, but on the other hand, like the Republican Party, he promised to reduce it. The tax is really vulnerable and it is destined to be difficult to assume the important task of nomination of the Democratic Party’s presidential candidate.”
The richest man did not answer immediately.
In fact, no one knows the true attitude of Bill Bradley, Tang Huan, whose emotions are invisible.
Regardless of the superficial humility of the richest man, he is known to be kind to others, but he has a book in his heart. People like Bill Bradley and even Ross Perrot, although the scene can pass, but it does not mean that See you really.
Gein, this kind of superior person is very discriminatory against the Chinese in his bones. For example, the memorial to the fallen soldiers in the Vietnam War designed by Lin Ying is fully exposed.
Of course ~www.mtlnovel.com~ no one has the right to dare to play this game with Tang Huan, but this kind of phenomenon falls into his eyes and it is still very uncomfortable after all.
After pretending to weigh up, the richest man happily sold the favor of the first lady of the United States, “Well, as you wish, I will not affect the presidential nomination process in the Democratic Party, but like Phil Jackson, I don’t care how people like Michael Jordan support Bill Bradley!”
Hearing this assurance, Hillary Clinton, who thought it was enough to go back to the business, finally showed a truly relaxed smile, “I believe in Tang’s promise.”
As a result, Tang Huan added unhurriedly, “Actually, if you, madam, participate in the US presidential election, then I absolutely support it unconditionally.”
Hillary Clinton was coaxed to laugh, and waved his hands again and again: “There is no precedent for a female president in the United States. I am satisfied to be elected as a federal senator from New York State.”
…
In this way, a negotiation was quietly completed, and the first lady of the United States attended the opening ceremony of the Olympia World Tower happily physically and mentally.
Naturally, many reporters came to the scene, but their focus was a little off topic. After finally blocking the richest man, they asked impatiently: “I heard that Zheru Software Company once again requested the suspension of the United States of America’s lawsuit against Zheru Software. The corporate monopoly case, is this true?”
Tang Huan replied with a worried look, “As everyone knows, the last year of this century is coming to an end, and mankind will usher in a brand new 21st century.”
“However, at this exciting turn of the century, the handling of the millennium bug problem has become increasingly urgent.”
“Zheru Software Company hopes to proceed from the overall situation, temporarily eliminate interference, concentrate on helping customers around the world, and safely tide over the millennium bug problem.”
