Thoughts Brought by Global Warming, Winter Cycle Brings the Snow Reverie in Northern China

       Beijing, which is blessed with four distinct seasons, has always maintained the climate balance given by nature in the cycle of spring, summer, autumn and winter, which is envied by the world.

       With spring in March, April and May, summer in June, July and August, autumn in September, October and November, and winter in December, January and February, all these wonderful seasons are changed heartily, welcoming the world to watch and judge.

      There are the natural phenomena that spring comes before summer, summer comes before autumn, autumn comes beofre winter, and winter comes before next spring. It is difficult to bear the ice and snow in the northernmost part of China in winter and the heat in southern China in summer. Beijing is indeed a model city of the world climate, and the extreme climate of cold and hot is not easy to form here, which can explain why many rulers of Chinese dynasties chose Beijing as their Capital. The People's Republic of China has taken effective measures to prevent and control environmental pollution and adverse effects brought by climate change, and the achievements have also attracted the worldwide attention. In the list of brand climate in the world, today's Beijing can rank in the first place.

      Now it is the golden winter again, which naturally makes people look forward to the beautiful and grand scenery in Beijing embellished with snow.

   “With white snowflakes flying all over the sky, snow covering my campus, I am strolling along this path, leaving a string of footprints.” Footprints, a campus song that has touched generations, not only sustains the feelings of so many people wandering in the rain and snow in the city, but also makes people miss the benefits brought by snow.

      The growth of crops needs the protection of thick snow, which can prevent and slow down the heat transfer from the soil to the outside and block the invasion of external cold air. Crops protected by snow can not only survive the winter safely, but also store water from the deposited snow. In addition, snow can also increase soil fertility. According to scientific research, every 1 liter of snow water contains about 7.5 grams of nitride. The fertility of soil is directly enhanced by the melted snow water, which is equivalent to applying nitrogen fertilizer to the soil once. After snowfall, the air is fresh and clear, which makes people feel relaxed and happy and is beneficial to human health. The water from melted snow can also feed livestock and poultry, which is obviously natural. People take food as their priority, and traditional agriculture, which largely depends on the weather, cannot be separated from the care of Heaven.

       The Agricultural Bank of China ranks 11th in the list of “Daguan•Keweiwei China Brand Value Top 100”, and 101st in the list of “Daguan•Keweiwei World Brand Value Top 900” with a brand value of 242.546 billion yuan RMB.

      The Agricultural Bank of China attaches importance to cultivating employees' concept of green life, actively carries out environmental protection public welfare activities, continuously strengthens communication and cooperation with all parties, spreads the concept of green development in the whole society, and drives the public to participate in environmental protection and jointly builds a beautiful homeland.

      "The Agricultural Bank of China adheres to the distinct principles, guards the green hills and clear waters, strives to be the promoter and pioneer in serving carbon peaking and carbon neutralization, integrates the concept of green development into the development strategy of the whole bank, takes green livability, green transformation, green ecology, green energy and other fields as the breakthrough point, increases green credit supply, enriches green financial products, accelerates the cultivation of new advantages of green finance, and protects green hills and clear waters with financial strength, adheres to the green and low carbon concept to lead the operational transformation, advocates the establishment of a green lifestyle, creates a good atmosphere for energy conservation and carbon reduction, and actively promotes the comprehensive green transformation and development of the economy and society."

       Maintain the normal development of climate and prevent the changes to the original ecosystem caused by global warming. Global warming will melt glaciers and frozen soil, flood coastal areas, lead to the increase of drought, rainstorm and flood disasters, lead to the change of national agricultural economic structure and threaten the survival of mankind.

       Here, we should praise people's expectation and reverie brought by snow.
