Warning of natural disasters

2021-08-05

In the past year or so, 2020 proved to be one of the deadliest moments. Natural disasters are frequent, from locust swarms, earthquakes, floods, forest fires, high temperature heat waves, etc. This year, everyone sits on the edge of their seats and waits for the next thing to happen. This is a wake-up call for people all over the world-the retaliatory destruction and destruction brought to people by the destruction of the environment.

1. Forest fires, Australia -2019-2020

Starting in 2019, Australia has officially begun to show signs of wildfires due to the long-term drought across the country. In the next few months, the forest fires spread rapidly, showing no signs of stopping. The damage caused by this fire to Australia is not small. At least 400 people died (directly or indirectly). More than 1 billion wild animals were killed in the accident. The damage ranged from an estimated 18 million hectares of buildings and more than 9,000 houses. It was burned, and with a heavy rain in eastern Australia, this tragedy of nearly 7 months ended.

2. Locust swarms, Asia-East Africa-India-Middle East-2020

The desert locust is a migratory pest that can eat food that approximately 35,000 people can eat. They feed on crops and have the ability to destroy crops in a matter of seconds. In addition, they reproduce rapidly, and there can be nearly 150 million such pests in an area of 1 square kilometer. Known as one of the most serious pest attacks in the past 26 years, it is said that the sudden increase of these locusts is caused by climate change, and the increase in temperature has caused a sharp increase in locust reproduction.

3. Earthquake, China-India-Iran-Philippines-Russia-Turkey-Caribbean -2020

As the epidemic continues to spread, people all over the world are facing catastrophic situations such as earthquakes in many aspects. There were 45 major earthquakes with a magnitude of over 6 degrees. Jamaica and Russia faced earthquakes with magnitudes over 7 and became the worst-hit countries.

4. Winter blizzard, USA-2021

In mid-February 2021, two consecutive winter storms caused a series of shocks across the United States, affecting many southern states that are not used to cold temperatures, snow or ice. The storm caused widespread power outages, boiling water warnings, deaths and traffic accidents, spreading across many states. The most serious impacts are in communities in the southeastern states, where infrastructure and housing cannot withstand several days of severe cold. Several states have implemented rotating blackouts and called on customers to save energy to prevent interruptions. The freezing caused the pipeline to burst, destroying houses and municipal/national infrastructure.

5. Flood, Australia-Hawaii-China-Afghanistan-Europe-2021

Affected by the fireworks typhoon in Henan, China, 302 people died and 50 people were missing in the floods that broke out. Some European countries were affected by the floods, and some were catastrophic, causing death and widespread destruction. The most serious German floods affected several river basins in Northern and Central Europe, including Austria, Belgium, Croatia, Germany, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Switzerland and Italy. At least 228 people were killed in the flood, including 184 in Germany, 41 in Belgium, 1 in Italy, 1 in Austria and 1 in Romania.

6. Heat wave, United States-2021

From late June to mid-July 2021, an extreme heat wave affected most of the western part of North America, setting a new historical record. Among them, the temperature in Portland, Los Angeles, Seattle and other cities has exceeded 40 degrees Celsius. The exact death toll is unclear, and it is increasing. Preliminary statistics released by the British Columbia Coroner's Bureau on July 6 showed that there were 610 more sudden deaths in the province than usual, and 66 people died in Alberta within a week of the heat wave; British Columbia Coroner Subsequently, it was stated that in the week from June 25 to July 1, 569 people had been confirmed to have died of heat-related causes. The death toll in the United States includes at least 116 in Oregon (72 of them in Multnomah County, including Portland), and at least 112 in Washington. If there is no global warming caused by humans, this kind of event is almost impossible.

 The above-mentioned natural disasters are only a part of them in recent years, but they are the epitome of the current ecological environment and climate change of the entire planet, and they have also sounded a wake-up call to people all over the world. Countries around the world have also paid attention to this, and 195 countries have signed the "Paris Agreement." The agreement aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. So what are the things that can be done around us?

(1) Reduce the use of fossil fuels and try to use green new energy sources, such as wind energy, water energy, solar energy, LED energy saving, etc.

(2) Green travel, reducing carbon dioxide emissions

(3) Planting trees, strengthening greening, and adsorbing carbon dioxide

(4) Rectification will be carried out for factories with unqualified emission indicators

ERVAN, as a LED energy-saving lamp factory, we also do our best to make energy more efficient, increase the conversion rate, and reduce more carbon emissions to respond to the global call!
