Chapter 604 The Impact of Secondary Disasters

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Chen Xin is also very concerned about the country¡¯s ongoing geological survey.

    After all, there are ways to overcome the cold environment, but if something goes wrong with the ground beneath our feet, our homes and shelters will really be gone.

    However, the results of the investigation so far are somewhat worrying.

    The impact of the Toba volcano eruption is global, and the entire Blue Star will be affected by it.

    It¡¯s not just about volcanic ash covering the world and earthquakes affecting the Southwest.

    This is a super volcano. Its eruption can even cause species extinction and plunge the entire Blue Star into disaster and catastrophe.

    Although it is not a disaster as horrific as the mass extinction of species and large-scale global geological changes in geological time, the consequences of super volcanic eruptions cannot be underestimated.

    After all, such a terrifying eruption will have a great impact on the plate movement and crustal activity of the entire Blue Star.

    ¡°Especially before that, there were meteorites falling that were strong enough to break through the earth¡¯s crust. The impact it had on Blue Star was only now revealed.

    In fact, the national geological survey of major cities across the country has confirmed this to a large extent.

    Geological activities across the country are becoming more active. Although small-scale earthquakes will not have any impact, no one can guarantee that as geological activities become more active, large-scale earthquakes will not occur.

    Fortunately, the current major cities in the country are not in those geologically active areas. After all, it is difficult to form large cities in such areas. In ancient times, people would spontaneously avoid such dangerous areas.

    So far, the main geological problems discovered so far are the subsequent secondary disasters caused by earthquakes, such as cracks, collapses, drops in groundwater levels, and other problems that, although not fatal, are still troublesome to deal with.

    At present, this geological survey plan is still ongoing. According to the country's intention, it is to conduct a survey of major areas across the country, but currently, only the screening of major cities has been completed.

    Although many problems have been discovered, fortunately, so far, there have been no signs of a disaster of the magnitude of the previous major earthquake in the southwest.

    And due to the influence of environmental factors, some geological disasters such as landslides that may have occurred in the past have been eliminated, and only avalanches occurred in some areas.

    Although avalanches are also a terrible disaster, they are nothing compared to landslides or other geological disasters.

    Although these geological disasters are not fatal, they have made the current environment much worse.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????OUT??

    Although small-scale earthquakes in some areas will not pose any threat to cities and shelters, mines cannot withstand such small earthquakes that occur every now and then.

    You must know that the mine itself is destroying the geological structure. Although the development of modern mining technology has made the mine safer, it does not mean that it is truly foolproof.

    Otherwise, there would not have been news about mining accidents every year before the disaster.

    As for the impact of geological disasters on project construction, let alone mention it. According to the news Chen Yu received, a large number of construction projects were affected by geological disasters and their construction schedules were affected, and some even had to be resited.

    As for this city, due to the occurrence of large-scale geological collapse and the decline of groundwater levels in the urban area, Chen Xin, who originally planned to build the first dome city here, had to change his mind and consider  Choose an area with more stable geology.

    You must know that this area at the junction of Hunan Province and Hubei Province is not only mountainous, but also an area where geological activities were once more active or the strata were relatively thin. Otherwise, there would not be so many hot springs underground here.

    Now, affected by previous events, local geological activities have become active, but this is not conducive to the location selection of the new city.

    In Hunan Province, there are actually many mountainous areas in the province and not many relatively plain areas. It is not easy to choose a more suitable place to build a dome city.

    After all, the diameter of the dome city is only five kilometers, and the entire city is less than a city district of a big city. It is simply a miniature city, but it is still a city and will accommodate tens of thousands of people.

    In fact, according to the current design, the dome city is expected to accommodate a population of 50,000 to 70,000 people. If it is squeezed in and designed more compactly, it will not be able to accommodate 100,000 people.Difficult matter.

    With such a large population, the country obviously attaches great importance to site selection. If something goes wrong, no one can bear the responsibility.

    So these days, on the one hand, Chen Xin is paying attention to the design drawings, and on the other hand, he is also discussing the site selection issue with geological experts.

    The city's site selection as a dome city has been scrapped due to geological subsidence. The current result of discussions with experts is that the city is inclined to be closer to the provincial capital Star City, and more domes will be built in the future to serve as the city's dome city.  The new urban area simply relocates the city to its current location.

    After all, this city was originally located on the shores of Dongting Lake. It is an area with a very rich underground water network. In ancient times, it was part of Yunmengze. If the underground water network system is affected by earthquakes, it will cause a large-scale decline in groundwater levels.  and geological subsidence, the city will also be threatened.

    It is a very valuable proposal to move the city southward to an area with more geological stability and build a new city.

    ¡°It¡¯s just that the investment and impact of doing this are too great. Even if it is just to build a dome city, relocating a part of the population first is a huge project, let alone the entire city that will be relocated later.

    For the country, even before the disaster, such a thing is not easy to accomplish, so this plan is still only a proposal.

    However, Chen Xin himself was very interested in the idea of ????connecting multiple dome cities together to form a whole proposed in this proposal.

    The dome city is only similar to the area of ??an urban area in the past cities, or even smaller. Under such circumstances, a single dome city obviously cannot accommodate the entire population of the next city, even if it is only a small city, and because  Large numbers of people were lost in previous disasters.

    So the idea of ??building multiple dome cities and then connecting them together to form a new city seems very creative.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
