Blackstone Code

The conference room is a fan-shaped multi-level conference room, with six third-level members sitting at the front, followed by ten second-level members, and finally twenty first-level members.

Lynch sat in the middle of the conference room, on the rostrum.

The meeting was initiated by him, Connor and Mr. Wardrick. Connor would definitely not be able to come here. The president was not working in the presidential palace honestly and went to a private island off the coast of Bupen.

This can make the federal people full of victimization complex imagine a thousand-episode behind-the-scenes conspiracy political drama series!

There are multiple cameras covering all aspects of the meeting. When the management committee considers that the content of the meeting is very important and it is necessary to notify all members.

In this way, they can make everyone understand more intuitively what is going on.

As the meeting began, the meteorological experts repeated what they had said to Lynch and Kangan at the Presidential Palace, and gave more detailed data and evidence.

The federal people are very superstitious about data. Even if they don't understand the data, they don't look at it very carefully.

As long as you can give "accurate" data to two digits after the decimal point, they will think that the data is trustworthy, regardless of whether it was actually calculated by you!

The meteorological expert is very familiar with the unique national conditions of the Federation. After all, he is also the deputy director. He often needs to deal with some official documents, and he knows how to handle them.

As the meeting progressed, the expressions of the participants who did not pay much attention at first became serious.

After all, this is a question related to whether the world will still be suitable for human survival in a few decades!

You know, once the Great Ice Age really comes, the existing social order will inevitably be broken!

Whether it is for the benefit of the family or for their own future generations, they must pay attention to it!

“Is there a way to reverse this future?”

A third-level member sitting at the front raised his own question, "I read Senator Langdon's report on environmental protection, which said that industrial pollution will cause climate warming."

"If we now increase industrial emissions of carbon dioxide and other gases, or even take the initiative to produce, manufacture, and use machines that specifically emit carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, is there any chance of changing the current climate?"

Industrial emissions are only "by-products" of industrial production and are certainly not as good as machines that specifically produce carbon dioxide and then emit it.

This is also a common idea among some people. When the weather is cold, you can wear thick cotton clothes.

So if the planet gets cold, wouldn't it be enough to put on thick cotton clothes?

The meteorologist pursed his lips and said, "Your idea has some operational value, but I don't think it has much significance."

"I have read Senator Langdon's report on environmental issues and agree with his arguments in the report, but the premise of all this is that we are in the environment of the past!"

"What is causing our temperature to drop rapidly now is a change in the location of gravity. In this star system, we are in the process of a process that we do not understand the principles of."

"We are deviating from our previous trajectory and moving away from the sun."

"Even if the entire atmosphere was filled with carbon dioxide, it wouldn't have a big enough effect on raising temperatures."

"Because the changes in our atmospheric temperature come from the sun's irradiation and thermal radiation."

"Now the thermal radiation is starting to decrease..."

Meteorological experts are also studying this issue during this time. The weather is getting worse and worse. Maybe in ten or twenty years, other places except near the equator will be unsuitable for people to live.

The most important thing is actually the plant issue!

Someone must provide oxygen and food so that humans can live!

In addition to meteorological experts, there were also experts from other fields, such as archeology experts.

“Was life present during past great ice ages?”

Archaeological experts nodded in agreement, "There were animals in every major ice age. They had thick fur and lived on the surface."

"Just like the northernmost part of Marillo now, there are still some plants living there, but they just look like they're dead."

"But they will survive as long as sunlight is present, and their life cycle will be lengthened in a freezing environment."

This is good news. The members started to discuss. A third-level member looked at Lynch and said, "Mr. Lynch, I believe you must have some ideas of your own. Why don't you talk to us?"

Lynch nodded, "Of course, I have been thinking about this aspect in the past few days, because it is not only related to our own lives, but also related to the lives of our descendants."

"I also lost my ability to think when I first heard about it, but actually the problem we thought it was wasn't how we survived."

"The current coldest temperatures in the northern part of the federation to central Marillo are minus 20 to 30 degrees Celsius in winter. People can survive as long as they take measures to keep warm."

"The real issue is how we get food and space to survive."

"If the temperature of the world remains at minus 20 or 30 degrees for an entire year, a large number of ordinary species will become extinct, animals and plants, and we will lose the source of food. This is the most terrifying thing."

"So I think our main consideration at the moment is how to produce enough food for our use with low maintenance costs."

Many members suddenly felt their eyes light up when they heard Lynch's words. Indeed, at present, the low temperature has actually lasted for more than ten years.

Could the Marillos have survived differently?

With the current level of technology, it is really not difficult to build a house that can isolate the cold air from the outside!

The house they live in can do it!

The real problem is the source of food.

"What do you think?", the member who asked the question continued to ask further.

Lynch’s reply was quick, “Geothermal farms…”

The first time the word geothermal farm appeared in the world, everyone found it very novel. Lynch gave a brief explanation.

"The frozen soil provides a stable structure, and we create a special space underground for planting and breeding."

"Geothermal energy can ensure the temperature of the geothermal farm while consuming a small amount of energy. We can grow the food we need here and grow those meat products."

"We can even continue to dig deeper in this area, such as through geothermal power generation."

"There are dormant active volcanoes in some places in the Federation. We can try to use them. These will be important resources in the future..."

Lynch's plan is not perfect and lacks research, but the good news is that everyone now has time.

It will take another 40 to 50 years to get down to that environment. At the same time, some people have proposed to find the reasons for the change in gravity, but not many people support it.

Even if the cause of the change in gravity is found, what will happen?

So far, humans have not been able to leave this planet. Even if everyone discovers the changes in the gravity of the star system, there is no way to solve it.

Astronomy experts believe that the current orbit of the star system in the upper class galaxy has entered a special environment, just like this planet orbiting the sun.

In the upper-level galaxy, the star system is also constantly rotating and has its own orbit. When a force field with high stress appears around the star system, the gravity within the galaxy will change.

Found or not found, actually has no specific practical significance.

At most, you can tell people how you died.

After a vote by thirty-six members, the Holy Peace Association will set up a special organization to oversee this matter and find a suitable solution.

The management committee then formally sent a letter to all members, attaching minutes of the meeting, and also sent a video tape to third-level members.

In a short period of time, these matters triggered heated discussions within the Holy Peace Society. Even the Eternal Life Institution opened a separate subsidiary organization and began to study how to survive in a freezing environment.

After all, the purpose of eternal life is to live a better life. If human civilization no longer exists, even if a few people can obtain eternal life, it will be meaningless.

People are always trying to break down classes, but people don't understand that class is an indispensable link in human society.

If one day human beings really eliminate classes, then this day will also be the day when human society will perish!

Some research teams have even begun to prepare to establish a long-term experimental base in the north of Marillo to try ways to ensure the survival of human civilization in extreme environments.

In short, this winter is very lively.

Lynch brought the results of the meeting to Connor, and Connor was somewhat emotional after hearing it.

"Thank you for paying attention to this issue first. If it takes more than ten years for people to start paying attention to it, it may be too late."

"The time left for us now is actually running out, I hope everything comes in time!"

"If there are any new developments, please contact me anytime..."

Lynch then contacted the chief engineer and told him what happened.

The chief engineer doesn't think this is a problem -

"For ordinary people, this will definitely be the end of the world. If the temperature in summer is below freezing, their living environment will definitely be very bad."

"But Mr. Lynch, you are different from them!"

"Enough wealth allows you to survive even if the planet explodes. Maybe we can set up a new department to study how to convert geothermal heat into usable energy."

As a result, a new department was established.

After solving these trivial problems, Lynch took a plane to Slem.

Because Catherine's term is coming to an end.

Catherine's departure may cause some minor turbulence in Slem. As the chairman of the Slem Industry Committee, Lynch would be better off sitting in Slem at this time.

No matter who wants to test his bottom line, he will let these people understand what the price will be.

Of course, if the new people are willing to cooperate with him, he doesn't mind sharing his happiness and wealth with them!
