Throughout human history, humans have struggled with floods and waterlogging for thousands of years. To completely control its disasters and bid farewell to the history of poor mountains and bad waters, we must create green sponge rivers and mountains. Only by creating green sponge rivers and mountains can we achieve a strong country and a rich people, employment for all, bid farewell to floods and waterlogging with green mountains and waters, and actively prevent climate warming.
To achieve this grand goal, we must have extraordinary courage, determination to break our arms, and be prepared to sacrifice local interests. All mountains and rivers that need to be greened, that is, all the "four wastelands" (wasteland, hills, river beaches and deserts), should be auctioned to farmers, urban residents, and even unemployed college graduates, allowing them to operate various entities on this land, start their own businesses, private property rights, and allow inheritance. 50 years later, every inch of land will be a green sponge river and mountain.
How to achieve such a grand blueprint? First of all, we must emancipate our minds, have necessary laws as guarantees, and have advanced management measures.
1. National legislative guarantees
The state should issue a series of laws related to the construction of green sponge rivers and mountains, and at the same time revise existing laws and regulations to adapt to the realization of this goal. We need to change the contracting of some places into auctioning; change the property rights of 50 years into permanent property rights; and allow them to build houses for their own living, etc. To this end, we must completely liberate our minds and show the courage of a hero to cut off his arm. We would rather lose a finger ,also want save an arm; we would rather lose an arm ,also want save a life. Don't be jealous, let alone hate the rich. In the face of major issues, we should choose the lesser of two evils and the greater of two benefits. As long as we can overcome this psychological barrier, the great rejuvenation of mankind is just around the corner.
2. Entity business model
The entity business model can refer to the modern joint-stock enterprise model, with the state issuing certificates, the relevant departments supervising, and the agricultural and forestry departments, professional banks, professional audits, and professional courts all participating.
In principle, the "four wastelands" of cities and counties at all levels should be developed and operated by local farmers and citizens nearby, and various farms, forest farms, pastures, processed products, and even rural agricultural tourism can be operated. In short, where it is suitable for farming, it is farming; where it is suitable for forestry, it is forestry; where it is suitable for animal husbandry, it is animal husbandry. It can also be mixed management to improve management efficiency.
The auction of the "four wastelands" should be demarcated by small watersheds or appropriate scopes, and the highest price auction method should be adopted, that is, the bid amount is sealed, and bidders can only bid once. After the bid is opened, the highest bidder wins the bid and pays. It can be combined voluntarily, and the size of the shares can be determined according to the proportion of the investment amount.
The state can also plan a certain number of "four wastelands" and auction them to urban residents at the highest price auction method.
The funds obtained from the auction of the "four wastelands" should be used by the state to build roads leading to the "four wastelands"and even provide water and electricity. It can also provide them with high-quality tree species, seedlings, pesticides and necessary facilities, as well as a series of services before, during and after starting a business. At the same time, the state should support unemployed college graduates to participate in the development and greening of the "four wastelands"and can use interest-free loans to allow them to return to their hometowns to start businesses, and then hand over this part of the funds to the state after achieving economic benefits.
For the same purpose, billionaires can lead thousands of troops to develop deserts and Gobi. Let the desert become an oasis, let springs flow into lakes, let birds fly in the sky, let beasts walk on the ground, let the clear lake water fatten fish and shrimp, let the Gobi on the frontier become a land of fish and rice, and let new cities rise from the ground. From then on, the sky will become blue, the water will become clear, the land will become green, and people will become rich. In the near future, all continents and will be paradise on earth.
3. Business of the entity
Farm:
The development direction of the farm should gradually transition to "order agriculture". The so-called "order agriculture" is to open up the supply and marketing channels in advance, and even determine production based on sales, to prevent the lack of sales channels after mass production. Many agricultural products will quickly rot and deteriorate, causing huge losses, or even operating at a loss.
Farms can sign supply and marketing contracts with factories, schools, supermarkets, residential communities and other consumer or sales units in the city, regularly supply them with agricultural products such as grain, flour, vegetables, fruits, potatoes, etc., create their own brands, register their own trademarks, and take the road of brand agriculture.
Farm suppliers should provide pollution-free green food to urban orderers. Ensure that no harmful substances such as pesticides, fertilizers, additives, etc. are used to ensure food quality. Orderers can also prepay a certain deposit to suppliers appropriately. Suppliers seek development with integrity, and orderers seek health with mutual trust. Integrity is the basis, mutual benefit and win-win.
Forest farm:
Forest farms should take the road of "greening around mountains". (Appendix omitted at the end of the article)
Pasture:
Pasture is an indispensable part of the entity. Of course, it should be emphasized that grazing should be carried out in a place suitable for grazing. Even if it is a pasture, it is not all horses, cattle, sheep, chickens, dogs, pigs, etc., and its key points should be highlighted. Unless it is suitable for grazing, it is generally better to keep it in a pen. Here I solemnly recommend a kind of forage, which is alfalfa known as the "king of forage".
Alfalfa is a perennial herb with perennial roots and can be harvested many times a year. Alfalfa not only has highyield, but also has excellent grass quality. Almost all livestock and poultry like to eat it. It can be used to feed pigs and to keep cattle and sheep in pens. It is also one of the oldest foods for humans. If it is used to feed livestock and poultry, more than 50% of feed grain can be saved. This has extremely realistic and far-reaching strategic significance for countries that need to import food.
4. The impact of forests on climate
According to meteorological data, 2024 is the hottest year in human history, and the global warming rate is getting faster and faster every year. In order to solve the problem of global warming, the United Nations held the United Nations Climate Summit (COP) in Incheon, South Korea in 2018. The conference announced that global climate change will be out of control in 12 years. This means that scientists are helpless in the face of climate warming, and humans can only wait for punishment and death.There is also a saying that in a few thousand years, the earth will be unsuitable for human habitation, mainly due to climate reasons. If we prepare for the rainy day now, we can avoid this disaster, or at least greatly postpone it.
The main cause of global warming is the continuous increase of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, causing the greenhouse effect. And afforestation and greening vegetation are indeed one of the decisive means to solve the problem of global warming.
A 10-year-old tree can absorb about 22 kilograms of carbon dioxide per year, and an acre of forest can absorb about 2.5 tons of carbon dioxide per year. According to experts, 32.1 billion acres of forest will be needed to cope with climate warming. In other words, 4 acres of forest per person in the world can curb climate warming. The scientific basis is that trees can directly absorb sunlight, reduce ground temperature, release a lot of oxygen, and improve soil quality and improve the safety quality of fresh water. At the same time, the huge amount of wood will greatly reduce the society's demand for steel and concrete. In short, the reduction of atmospheric temperature will provide a comfortable environment for life, production, and learning, and will also greatly save energy resources such as electricity. We rather slow down the pace of economic development ,to also want achieve high-quality economic operation!
Can such a grand blueprint be realized? I think it is completely in line with the laws of nature and scientific principles. If it is put into practice, it will surely succeed and achieve great results. However, does it conform to the ideas and subjective will of decision makers? Unknown! In fact, as long as it is implemented, it will have an immediate effect. What needs to be emphasized here is that we must completely liberate our minds, break through the cage of institutional mechanisms, adopt a pragmatic attitude, think about all citizens, let go of our hands and feet, and do great things. If we can take this step, it will be a blessing for the world and mankind!
