Struggle in the Steam Age

Chapter 324: Agricultural Druid

"——The core of circular agriculture has only four points, that is, reduction, reuse, recycling and controllability." Lawrence explained to the priests of the agricultural church in the open space in front of the boiling water house next to the biogas digester Started the focus of circular agriculture. But the priest didn't know where to take out the notebook and pen to start recording.

"Reduce is to reduce the total amount of substances that enter the production and consumption process. For example, I think everyone can see the importance of chemical fertilizers, so we cannot completely prohibit the use of chemical fertilizers. But we can reduce the amount of chemical fertilizers through various means. Use, for example, use biogas residue, compost and other organic fertilizers for filling."

"Reuse, recycling and controllability are actually a system. On the one hand, we must reduce the use of various disposable products and reduce various pollution. To do this, we need to make these things recyclable. "

"But it is not very simple to build a recycling system. Only through reasonable design and optimizing the layout of the interface to form a recycling chain, the upper-level waste becomes the raw material of the next-level production link. Use the materials and energy that enter the production and consumption system to effectively prevent and control harmful substances or unfavorable factors from entering the circulation chain. Only in this way can a healthy circulation system be built and the overall economic operation quality and efficiency can be improved."

"Is that why you asked us to record various data in detail?" After listening to Lawrence's speech, a priest closed his notebook and asked thoughtfully.

"Yes." Lawrence nodded. "Although agricultural production may never be as accurate as industrial production, these important benchmark data must be summarized. Because only with these data can we formulate a more reasonable cycle system."

"It turned out to be so." "Probably understand." The priests and church staff nodded their heads to express their understanding. After all, as the personnel of the agricultural church, they actually knew about this direction in normal times. It’s just that Lawrence has not been able to summarize a set of rules like Lawrence, and now that Lawrence said that many of them have a feeling of being empowered. Many of the previously confused places and places that have not been figured out are all at once. Become suddenly enlightened.

"It turns out that the development of agriculture does not necessarily have to be opposed to the natural world!" One of the church staff who seemed to be an agricultural druid muttered to himself. For druids like them, choosing agriculture will often fall into a certain contradiction, so they have always been difficult to improve their transcendent level, and what Lawrence said just now seems to have opened a new door for him.

"I think the development of agriculture should be integrated into the natural world as much as possible." Now that this has been said, Lawrence has also used his previous life to train on the Internet to make waves. "Or to be precise, our intelligent creatures are actually part of the natural world, and it is impossible for us to live independently from the natural world."

"After all, our resources are obtained from nature, and the waste generated in the development process is also accommodated by nature." Lawrence began to recall the large amount of environmental protection-related materials he had seen in his previous life and said, "Therefore, when we do anything In all things, we must consider the carrying capacity of the natural world to achieve sustainable development."

"What is sustainable development?" The agricultural druid stared at Lawrence's excited expression with wide eyes. Because he felt that what Lawrence said next is likely to be of great significance to him and even to the group of agricultural druids.

"This thing literally explains the development that satisfies the needs of contemporary people without threatening the ability of future generations to meet their needs." Lawrence recalled the things he had memorized before and said, "If we speak in detail, then we need to control each The population growth of the region, so that the population does not exceed the upper limit of the population carrying capacity of the region; rationally develop and utilize resources; protect and improve the natural ecological environment; formulate a coordinated development plan for the economy, population, resources, and environment"

"It seems to be difficult to implement." The agricultural druid showed a frustrated expression on his face. "In particular, many things are likely to take a long time to verify, and there are too many people in the world who are eager for quick success."

"But you can find an experimental area first." Lawrence said, "I believe it should not be too difficult to find a few plots of land willing to do this with the power of the agricultural church. For the church and the great gods, two or three generations People shouldn't be considered too long."

"As long as these demonstration areas can demonstrate their superiority, I think anyone with a little bit of foresight will slowly learn from these demonstrations." Lawrence finally concluded: "Of course, I know this may not be possible. Everyone does this, but as long as you do it, even if the impact is small, it is better than nothing."

"You are right." The agricultural druid suddenly showed a very peaceful smile, and Lawrence also felt his body begin to emit stronger and stronger magic waves. "I know what I should do in the future."

After speaking, the agricultural druid sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes and meditated. The priest who led the team walked up to Lawrence and spoke seriously. "Thank you, Lord Earl."

"What happened?" Lawrence was stunned at this time, because he didn't know why the agricultural druid on the other side sat down directly after he had a big shot, and it felt like he had realized it.

Fortunately, the priest of the agricultural church who led the team was quite experienced in this kind of thing. He quickly asked the other priests to pull the cordon around, and then explained to Lawrence what had happened.

Since agricultural druids are always between the two usual contradictory directions of nature protection and human development, they often have some knots in their hearts. As for the transcendents, if they can't see their own way, it is easy to get stuck in the super power level for a long time, or even degenerate.

But Lawrence's previous remarks obviously solved the heart knot of the agricultural druid in front of him, so he directly broke through the existing transcendent level here. After all, for spellcasters among the transcendents, raising their transcendent level after the epiphany can be regarded as a relatively routine operation.

"Thank you, thank you for your help." Ten minutes later, the agricultural druid managed to break through the extraordinary level he had been stuck for for a long time and then stood up, and then desperately shook Lawrence's hand to thank ~www. lightnovelpub.net~ Everything you say is mine-no, it is a guiding light for us agricultural druids, I will share your remarks with my friends. "

"Actually I didn't do much." Lawrence said, scratching his hair. "The main reason for all this is that you can figure it out on your own. If this is not the case, it will be useless if I say more."

After discussing this big topic, they discussed the popularization of biogas digesters. Unfortunately, although the biogas digester is good, the conditions of use are not low.

For example, a biogas digester requires a large amount of raw materials, which cannot be supported by a single household alone. Only by building public toilets like Lawrence and centrally processing the manure of large animals can enough raw materials be collected. In addition, the use of this kind of thing requires high ambient temperature and humidity.

A place like New Sauer Island is fortunate to be able to meet all the prerequisites, but this does not mean that other places can do the same. For example, whether it is north or south, the temperature in those places may be difficult to meet the use of biogas digesters.

"It's really a shame that good things can't be promoted." After listening to the introduction, the leading agricultural church priest rubbed his hands and said regretfully, "but it is already very good to be used in this area."
