Chapter 24 The Man at the Top of the Food Chain
Environmental protection is also a big stick, it depends on how it is used. For example, when African countries want to build railways, it is the time for environmentalists to perform, because this will affect the migration of African species. For the survival of wild animals, black Africans must do something
Sacrifice, such as keeping the original environment, preferably forever.
However, when the United States built the transoceanic railway, it did not care at all about the feelings of the North American bison. In the final analysis, it was just that it did not want industry to appear on the African land, so that Africa would have the ability to retaliate.
The descendants of the colonists expect Africa to always maintain its primitive style and not have the ability to settle accounts with them. As long as there are no mistakes in the result, no matter how backward or ignorant Africa is. In their eyes, this is all original ecology, this is all
The treasures of mankind are all worthy of being blown away with one's eyes closed.
Of course, the big stick depends on who is hit. Sheffield was very restrained and did not mention that the upper reaches of the Mississippi River had been polluted by the northern industrial zone. He wanted to occupy the moral high ground without offending anyone. It was just that true.
Not to mention that what Sheffield wrote is not a piece of shit, even if he is really a piece of shit, the University of Texas must allow himself to graduate, and he has full confidence in this.
Sheffield has already held this diploma in his hand, and what is missing is just a formality. Once this formality is completed, he will be able to graduate naturally. In fact, his appearance can be said to be very good-looking, because Sheffield is really
I came here to study in university, and I was able to pass every subject because of my accumulation in my previous life.
Whether it's because Austin, as the capital, comes here to mingle better with the sons and daughters of Texas politics, or for some other reason, after all, he has been here.
In fact, given the conditions in Sheffield, it is entirely possible to follow the example of Rockefeller in New York and build a school specifically for his heirs. This school is called Browning School. Unlike other schools, Browning School has very few students. It originated from the Rockefeller family.
Little Rockefeller was about to go to school, but he didn't like any existing schools, so he directly hired professors as teachers and paid for the establishment of this school. The first class of students was just little Rockefeller and his four friends.
Isn’t Sheffield’s food much better than the oil king’s? At least this university is a public university.
"The United States has a vast territory and abundant resources, and its resources are inexhaustible. This is God's gift to the United States. It is in this chosen land. As a citizen of the United States, we should be grateful. Balance the relationship between man and nature,
In the world we live in, various relationships are intertwined, and humans are naturally among them. I call them food chain relationships."
In front of a group of professors who were sitting upright, Sheffield looked full of compassion and talked with a God-fearing expression. He seemed to deeply feel the insignificance of human beings and the fear of God.
"The chemical energy stored in organic matter in the ecosystem is transmitted layer by layer in the ecosystem. In layman's terms, it is a series of relationships between various organisms eating and being eaten, such as grass and hares, wild wolves and hares, layer by layer.
Upward transmission. In this process, if every link collapses, it will spread to the next level. If we kill all the wolves, the rabbits will spread disorderly, and they will eat up all the turf, eventually leading to the degradation of the pasture.
Once degraded, for many people who depend on the land for their livelihood, their living conditions will be endangered."
"For example, we know that water is the source of human life, water is a prerequisite for economic development, the water environment cannot be polluted, and water resources are not inexhaustible. Once we pollute the water, people will get sick and there will be no good health.
If the water source is insufficient, people will move away, and the industrial area will shrink and eventually disappear.”
"I take the North American bison as an example. Seventy years ago, there were 50 million bison in the United States. They walked in herds on this chosen land. Twenty years ago, they could still be seen in Texas.
Herds of bison. But in recent years, we have seen no trace of bison. We only heard that there are sporadic bison in some northern states. The North American bison is one step away from extinction. This is only a short time.
twenty years."
In front of the professors and students who came here, Sheffield looked serious. Starting with the situation of the North American bison, he emphasized the consequences of the North American bison's extinction and extended the conclusion of the food chain.
In fact, the food chain was proposed thirty years later. Less than ten years later, the United States realized that the North American bison might become extinct and mobilized a nationwide effort to find and protect it. At that time, the number of North American bison was only 21.
head.
But what the heck, the current concept of the food chain was proposed by him, and he also proposed the protection of the North American bison. All the credit and reputation can only be attributed to him. Who knows whether he plagiarized or not?
Until the end, Sheffield wore a poker face and called on humans, as the leader of all things, to regulate nature in an orderly manner rather than destroy it.
After Sheffield finished reading his graduation thesis, the novel concept still made everyone savor it. Suddenly, Gott Davis, the principal of the Austin School in Texas, stretched out his hand and clapped, "It's a very novel concept, it's hard to imagine.
This understanding that a minor student can have even surprised me."
As soon as Davis finished speaking, a wave of applause swept across the audience. Sheffield raised his head slightly and nodded, taking the wave of applause calmly, as if everything was taken for granted.
"Sheffield is a kind man, and we can see that he is so sincere. It is very surprising to come here today and see such a rare graduation thesis."
"I think the proposal of the food chain is of extraordinary significance and can even trigger extensive discussions."
"In fact, we should also use the academic community to appeal to the government and take immediate action to protect the North American bison. This is what we should do."
Many professors commented one after another and praised Sheffield. The brand-new pride of Texas and the school's pillars of talent seemed to be ready to emerge. Of course, this does not rule out the possibility that some people are trying to flatter Sheffield because of their family status.
"I'm already imagining that William will definitely become a role model for citizens in the future!" Gott Davis said lightly, "I hope you can maintain the kindness you have today."
"Yes, Principal!" Sheffield bowed his head slightly to show respect. He has no interest in becoming a model citizen, and kindness has nothing to do with the Sheffield family. He just wants to be a man at the top of the food chain. The inspiration that the food chain can give him is that wolf
It is appropriate to eat sheep.
