In recent years, with the strengthening of my country's environmental protection measures , the environmental situation has greatly improved. The clear waters and green mountains that we once yearned for have returned to us again. What is even more gratifying is that animals that once disappeared have quietly returned.
Not long ago, when the staff of a nature reserve in Hubei were checking infrared cameras, they were pleasantly surprised to find traces of "Pegasus" in many places in Hubei.
Pegasus
In the supernatural novel "The Romance of the Gods" Jiang Ziya uses Si unlike as his mount. Originally, readers thought that the four dissimilarities were fictional things created by novelists, but who could have imagined that such four dissimilarities really exist in nature in .
Its scientific name is the Chinese serow. It has horns like antlers, a head like a sheep, hooves like a cow, and a tail like a donkey. In appearance, it looks similar to other animals. Because this animal runs so fast, folk also call it Pegasus.
Chinese serows mainly live in forests. Due to human deforestation and forest area reduction, Chinese serows' habitat has also been reduced, affecting the survival of Chinese serows.
At the same time, the Chinese serow is larger in size, can provide a larger amount of meat, and the quality of its fur is even better. Therefore, poachers frequently hunt and kill it for profit, and has repeatedly banned it.
As a result, the number of Chinese serows has been greatly reduced, and they have gradually become unknown.
In addition, the Chinese serow has a very strong temperament and is quite willing to bend rather than bend. Most of them die of self-mutilation after being captured. Even if they want to be domesticated and protected, it is difficult to , and their traces are even harder to find in zoos.
Therefore, the Chinese serow is listed on the list of China's national key protected wild animals, is a second-level endangered animal.
Nowadays, traces of Chinese serows have been surprisingly found in many places in Hubei, which shows that China's environmental conditions have greatly improved and the area of forest vegetation has increased.
Therefore, the number of Chinese serows is gradually increasing, and Pegasus is back in our sights, so experts say this is a good thing.
It should be said that this is a contribution to environmental protection!
Environmental Protection
As the population increases, more land will inevitably be needed to produce food, so humans have begun to reclaim land from lakes, open mountains to create farmland, and burn forests to create farmland. allows every inch of land to provide food for humans.
Although the food supply has temporarily increased, the environment has been completely destroyed.
The water storage function of lakes has been greatly weakened by the reclamation of lakes into fields, and the frequency and destructive power of floods have also increased.
Mountains are cleared to create farmland and forests are burned to create farmland. Mountain forest vegetation is destroyed. The exposed soil is unable to withstand natural erosion, and the fertility of the land is reduced.
The original purpose of reclaiming land was to produce more food to feed the growing population, but after all the efforts, the harvest of food was very little. It was really not worth the gain.
At the same time, all kinds of garbage from human life are dumped without classification. The various heavy metals and industrial wastewater contained in it gradually seep into the soil and return to humans or animals through plants. It is humans who are ultimately damaged.
Exhaust gases emitted by automobiles and industrial emissions also contain a variety of harmful gases, which can also pollute water sources, pollute soil, and even directly cause harm to the human body. The smog that once raged in is the best example.
Human beings ruthlessly destroy the environment for their own survival. It is you who will be punished in the end.
Pollution of soil, air, and water sources, in addition to causing harm to humans themselves, will also cause the extinction of a large number of rare animals and plants, and even cause irreparable damage to the biodiversity of the earth's biodiversity.
The extinction of an animal will cause great changes in a biological chain. The animals included in it may become extinct, or change their living habits.
should know that the biological chain is not single, but formed into a network. If one node changes, then the entire biological network, including animals, plants, and water sources, will generally have problems, and will in turn affect all species on the earth.
Just like there was no mad cow disease on the earth, but humans mistakenly changed the drinks of cows, and as a result, mad cow disease appeared in cows and was then transmitted to humans. It is unknown how much damage it caused. Even now, the public is still talking about mad cow disease. .
It is a good thing for humans to pay attention to environmental protection, but it must be noted that protecting the environment requires actions, rather than verbal attention, actual lying, or under the guise of environmental protection, does invisible things.
Since 1997, the concept of carbon neutral has gradually been accepted by countries around the world.
Western countries believe that human industrial development has emitted a large amount of carbon dioxide , causing the earth's temperature to rise. Therefore, countries are required to take action and take various necessary measures to reduce carbon dioxide emissions.
One of the measures is to require major carbon emitters, such as airlines, to reduce carbon dioxide emissions. If they exceed the limit, they must pay necessary fines. is commonly known as carbon tax .
Countries around the world responded positively to this and took measures to reduce carbon dioxide. For example, European countries began to close coal-fired thermal power stations and switched to burning less polluting gas.
According to statistics, China is currently a major carbon emitter, and must bear the necessary responsibilities.
Western countries therefore stand at the highest point of morality and point fingers at this. is really proud of . Who would have expected that in 2001, the President of the United States brazenly announced that the United States would withdraw from the " Kyoto Protocol ", giving the world a A slap in the face to efforts to warm the planet.
Even though successive U.S. governments have repeatedly announced measures to protect the environment and reduce carbon dioxide emissions, has been unwilling to rejoin the "Kyoto Protocol."
means that the attitude of the United States is to protect the environment. If I want to do it, I will do it. If I don’t want to do it, I won’t do it. No one can restrict me. ’s behavior is simply a scumbag.
The United States refuses to take responsibility for environmental protection, but uses the excuse that China is the largest emitter of carbon dioxide and frequently puts pressure on China and requires China to make corrections, but forgets that it is the largest per capita emitter of carbon dioxide in the world.. Notes on
Before the reform, China has always been an agricultural country among developing countries, and its degree of industrialization has not been high. Western countries can calculate the total amount of carbon dioxide emitted by China before the reform, and the impact of on global warming. How much more could it be?
Is it a sin for Chinese people to breathe?
Since the First World War, the United States has been the largest industrial country. It was once known as the arsenal of democratic countries during the Second World War. How much carbon dioxide could the United States emit at that time? Comparing the two, has a greater historical debt.
In short, our country must pay attention to environmental protection and should also pay attention to protecting the environment, but at the same time we must also pay attention to some nonsense in the world. cannot let some people act as teachers .
Note: Environmental protection is about taking actions rather than words, and is not a farce like the environmental girl.
Conclusion
The earth is not only the home of human beings, but also the home of all animals and plants, but there is only one earth, and humans must protect the earth and its resources. Otherwise, humans will be punished accordingly.
Human beings must take action, cannot let the last drop of water on the earth lose human tears.
