As time passed, the ice measurement work was completed.
Huo Yu looked at the value on the measuring rod and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The 249 scientific research station is the closest to the Pole and is located deep in the Arctic. The ice is still relatively thick, so there is no need to worry about the risk of ice breakage at the moment.
There are many scientific research stations near the Arctic Circle, where the ice is dangerously thin.
The ice guards stationed at those scientific research stations are terrified every day, and many of them have already evacuated.
Even when I sleep, I have to worry about it, for fear that the ice under my feet will suddenly break, and everyone and the research station will fall into the cold sea water.
"Fortunately, there are no abnormal conditions in the ice at present." Huo Yu smiled at the camera.
Suddenly, Huo Yu's expression changed and he said with a straight face: "Urgent spot check, how big is the continent in the Arctic?"
Most of the barrage in the live broadcast room was instantly reduced.
What is the area of the Arctic continent? We have never learned it.
"Ah, this..."
"It's over, it's over. Doesn't this touch my blind spot of knowledge?"
"I remember being taught geography, it seems to be more than 20 million square kilometers!"
"Damn it, when I watched the live broadcast, how did I get the feeling of being randomly checked by the teacher when I was at school?"
After a few seconds, Huo Yu said: "The time is up, the answer is 0!"
"There is no land in the North Pole, it is an ocean covered by ice floes - the Arctic Ocean."
"That is to say." Huo Yu stepped on the ice under his feet, "Now there is nothing but ice and snow under my feet, but sea water."
"Of course, there may be scattered islands in the floating ice. It is not accurate to say that there is no land."
"What I want to tell you is that as the earth warms, once all the Arctic ice under my feet melts, the earth will suffer a major blow."
"Icekeeper scientists believe that the total melting of the North and South Poles will cause global sea levels to rise by 66 meters or even higher."
"Rising waters will engulf many cities and completely change the appearance of Earth's current landmasses and coastlines."
Huo Yu looked deeply into the camera: "By that time, most of the coastal cities in our country will be plunged into the ocean, and the Neon Country, which had a good life in childhood, is likely to turn into Ze Country and become history!"
"So." Huo Yu pulled out the measuring rod inserted in the ice, "It is everyone's responsibility to protect the environment!"
"I read the news every day about the greenhouse effect and global warming. Is it so serious?"
"I live in a seaside city, wouldn't that mean..."
"We are safe now because there are countless icekeepers like the anchor who are shouldering the burden for us!"
"Thank you to the anchor, thank you to the icekeeper!"
Seeing the praise in the barrage, Huo Yu felt extremely complicated.
The Icekeepers say they are an organization that protects the North and South Poles, but in fact they can only play a role in observation and prevention.
Global warming is a problem for the entire earth's ecosystem and cannot be solved by icekeepers alone.
However, Huo Yu felt better when he saw this wave of identification points growing wildly.
Although the icekeeper has no way to stop global warming, he has the ability.
As long as you continue to gain recognition points, upgrade the system, and unlock more rewards, maybe it will be done.
Through the camera, Huo Yu's eyes seemed to travel through the void, following the network cable, and landed on the viewers in the live broadcast room.
The audience in the live broadcast room now became some kind of green vegetables in Huo Yu's eyes.
You can't blame me. In order to solve the problem of global warming, I have to feed you chicken soup and cut leeks every day.
Holding the measuring rod, Huo Yu walked towards the outpost.
"The 249 scientific research station is too remote, and it has been unmanned for a long time, which has caused serious damage to the post."
"Since it is far away from other scientific research stations, replenishing supplies is also a problem."
"Of course we have to eat the food one bite at a time. We have to solve the problem of repairing the outpost first."
As the camera advanced, the entire view of Post 249 was pulled into the shot.
As Huo Yu said, the building of the sentry post looked shabby, and the iron sheet on the surface was rusty.
The surroundings are all deathly white, except for a dilapidated outpost and a bright red flag that stand alone and proudly in the cold wind.
"Everyone, look at that warehouse." Huo Yu pointed to the dilapidated warehouse in the distance.
"This warehouse is in disrepair. It can't survive any snowstorm. I can only store unimportant supplies here."
Huo Yu pointed to the snowmobile again: "That motorcycle came with the support of other scientific research stations. I'm considering whether to let them take it away."
"There is no garage at the 249 Research Station, so I can only lay a layer of windproof cloth on it, but the snowmobile needs maintenance. If there is no wall to cover the wind and snow, it will sooner or later become a pile of scrap metal."
"And last night, I heard wolves howling around the outpost. It was probably the same pack of wolves from yesterday."
"Xiaoyu is the heir of the old wolf king. I suspect that these wolves also have evil intentions."
Seeing Huo Yu's frown, the audience in the live broadcast room quickly comforted him.
"It turns out that the environment the anchor is in is so dangerous!"
"It's so dangerous, you can light a bonfire. Don't you say that wild animals are afraid of fire?"
"You can use ice cubes to build a wall, just like Cao Cao did in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms."
"That's okay, isn't it said that Eskimo houses are made of ice?"
"Wow, wow, I feel sorry for the anchor."
Huo Yu looked at the barrage and smiled: "You are right, but this method is not suitable for Post 249."
"The significance of establishing a scientific research station is not only to monitor and collect data, but also to provide help and shelter to people in distress in the Arctic."
"As we all know, there is snow here in the Arctic, and seeing too much snow can cause snow blindness."
"If I surround this place with an ice wall and build the wall higher, if someone in distress passes by here, they may not be able to find this outpost because they are not paying attention, and they will lose their chance of survival."
"And if the wall is built low, it loses its defensive function. After all, the jumping ability of Arctic wolves is not weak."
"The most important thing is that I can't handle such a big project alone..."
The audience in the live broadcast room fell silent.
They had good intentions in giving Huo Yu advice, but at this time they also realized that they could not do much to help Huo Yu behind the screen.
At this moment, Huo Yu was checking the rising recognition points in the system, and was trying not to raise the corners of his mouth.
[Current identity point: 113871]
Over 10,000 points of agreement!
Hahaha, that's it.
First give them chicken soup, then sell them miserably, and harvest recognition points like crazy!
Why not build a snow wall? It's because there is a better defense system in the system mall.
The warehouse looks shabby, but it actually has two doors. The materials inside are piled high. I spent a lot of effort trying to close the door last time!
As for the snowmobile, no one would give it back.
Although I don’t have a garage now, so I might go back and feed the little fish more. When it is happy, it will entrust the system to give me a garage.
