Chapter 232 How lonely it is to be invincible
A few days later, Li Zetian contacted an influential newspaper in Brazil and asked them to publish Li Zetian's articles and take photos.
He wrote in the article:
"The Amazon rainforest is far away from the hustle and bustle of the world. It is like a unique source of wonders. It is the most magical "kingdom of life" on earth! It is rich in natural resources and has the highest number of species in the world. The ecological environment is complex and the biodiversity is well preserved. , known as "a paradise for biological scientists"!
For every 5 breaths of oxygen we take in, one of them comes from the Amazon rainforest!
However, since the 1970s, Brazil has not hesitated to sacrifice its God-given natural resources in the process of pursuing urbanization. Large areas of virgin forests have been cut down for timber, or burned and developed for farming. Pollution from various industries and agriculture has also begun to enter. Natural ecological area. The poaching of wild animals is increasing, and the capture and trafficking of rare animals is becoming increasingly rampant, leading to the extinction of hundreds of animals. Cougars, Pantanal elk, and many species of monkeys are all at risk!
Pieces of rainforest have been destroyed, and the Amazon rainforest, the "lungs of the earth," is in crisis. It is really sad and deplorable!
Urban development should not be destructive development. Respecting forests, respecting nature, and respecting the principles of sustainable development is the most appropriate development method for Brazil!
In fact, deforestation in the Amazon has not brought more wealth to Brazilians. They just fill their stomachs, but what they bring is eternal trauma and irreparable damage to nature. Excessive deforestation has caused soil erosion, soil desertification, and serious soil and water loss.
According to surveys, some areas in Pará and Amapá states in northeastern Brazil have become the driest and poorest places in Brazil due to the felling of forests and ecological destruction.
It can be seen from this that the pursuit of temporary benefits leads to eternal poverty, which is obviously not worth the gain! ! !
If the Brazilian government can clearly understand the seriousness of the destruction of the Amazon rainforest and formulate a number of environmental protection policies, this will not only benefit Brazil itself, but also benefit the whole world!
I am willing to invest US$200 million to establish the L.Y Nature Conservancy, which is committed to protecting land and waters with important ecological value around the world, maintaining the natural environment, and improving human welfare.
We also call on everyone to participate!
Protecting the environment is everyone’s responsibility! "
The newspaper published it on May 1, immediately shocking Brazil and attracting the attention of the Brazilian government.
Not long after, the news shocked the world, and environmental organizations responded one after another!
The United Nations Environment Program stated: "The Amazon rainforest is related to the lives of human beings around the world. The Brazilian government must pay attention to it!!!"
Greenpeace International said: "The endless bare tree stumps as far as the eye can see are simply shocking! Protecting the primeval Amazon forest is a top priority for mankind!"
…
There were spontaneous demonstrations in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, demanding that the Brazilian government enact relevant laws to protect the Amazon rainforest.
Countries around the world have asked Brazil to take effective measures to protect the Amazon rainforest.
At this time, the Brazilian Minister of Environment told the media: “In fact, the Brazilian government has long been aware of the seriousness of the destruction of the Amazon rainforest, and is formulating relevant provisions on environmental issues and relevant rules to protect ecological balance.
What Chronos·Li said is very correct. Urban development should not be destructive development. Respecting forests, respecting nature, and respecting the principles of sustainable development is the most appropriate development method for Brazil!
On behalf of the Brazilian government, I would like to thank Chronos Li very much for writing an article that awakens the world! ! !
Please rest assured that the Brazilian government will formulate relevant laws and regulations as soon as possible to protect the Amazon rainforest! "
The Brazilian government's statement finally settled the matter, but protecting the Amazon is not an empty talk and requires the joint efforts of the government, people, businesses, and environmental protection organizations.
Through the incident of protecting the Amazon rainforest, the L.Y Nature Conservancy founded by Li Zetian became an instant success. Although it was just established, its reputation is already world-renowned, and it immediately became one of the most influential environmental protection organizations in the world.
In fact, there was an environmental protection organization at this time called The Nature Conservancy. In his previous life, Jack Ma was one of the directors of the TNC Global Board of Directors of The Nature Conservancy and the chairman of the TNC China Council.
However, the current "Nature Conservancy" has eclipsed the "L.Y Nature Conservancy".
Although the Nature Conservancy was established earlier, it is a non-governmental organization established by a few ecologists. It does not have strong financial support or great influence, so it does not develop very quickly.
The L.Y Nature Conservancy is different. First of all, Li Zetian spent 200 million US dollars. Secondly, Li Zetian has a huge influence and is known as the world's number one philanthropist. Through the protection of the Amazon rainforest incident, the "L.Y Nature Conservancy" frequently appeared in the newspapers. , the popularity increased greatly. Subsequently, many individuals, companies, institutions, and countries donated money or joined the L.Y Nature Conservancy.
Therefore, people only know about the existence of L.Y Nature Conservancy, but they don’t know about the existence of “The Nature Conservancy”.
However, Li Zetian then sent someone to contact the "Nature Conservancy" and wanted to merge the two associations together!
Due to Li Zetian's "good reputation" and strong financial resources, the Nature Conservancy finally agreed to his proposal.
Once the merger of the two associations is completed, the L.Y Nature Conservancy will no longer be an empty shell, but will develop into an environmental protection organization with a certain scale and rich experience!
L.Y Nature Conservancy is on the right track in one step, and the faster it develops, this will be of great benefit to Li Zetian!
At this moment, he serves as the chairman of the global board of directors of the L.Y Nature Conservancy and has absolute control.
In addition, Gene Technology Company is also one of the main members of the L.Y Nature Conservancy. It uses the resources of the L.Y Nature Conservancy to help it collect species genes and establish an "Earth Gene Bank"! In fact, this is one of the main purposes of Li Zetian establishing the L.Y Nature Conservation Association.

"How lonely it is to be invincible
How invincible is so empty
Alone at the top, the cold wind keeps blowing
Who can understand my loneliness?
…
"
Li Zetian was so high-spirited that he unconsciously sang the song "Invincible" sung by Deng Chao.
Right now, he owns two major charities: L.Y Foundation and L.Y Nature Conservancy. Through them, he will have extremely powerful influence and voice on the earth! ! !
