"On the Source of Carbon Dioxide Production"
Between heaven and earth, there are many kinds of things, but the generation of carbon dioxide must have its source.
First, human life and all kinds of labor are its sources. In the matter of farming mulberry, the growth of grain in the fields, although it can sequester carbon, when fertilization is applied, the manure is fermented, and carbon dioxide escapes from time to time. And the equipment used in farming and the fuel oil are also the reasons for carbon production. As for the business of industry and commerce, there are many workshops, iron casters, kilns burn pottery, the fire is raging, the charcoal is burned out, and carbon dioxide rises in the air.
Second, the construction of palaces, masonry and civil engineering, and the preparation of various materials are also carbon sources. Burning bricks and tiles, the kiln fire does not go out. During the process, the raw materials change, resulting in the generation of carbon dioxide. And in the house, daily living, cooking and heating, and the use of firewood and coal all increase carbon dioxide.
Third, traveling on land and water, the genus of boats and carriages, is also the place where carbon dioxide is produced. Boats travel on water, driven by cars and boats, fuel and gas, between combustion, carbide into carbon dioxide, scattered in the world.
Fourth, between mountains and forests, although it is a natural environment, when grass and trees bloom and wither, and when they decay, microorganisms decompose, and carbon dioxide also grows. In case of fire in the sky, the fire spreads, the trees are scorched, and carbon dioxide is more like a hurricane, rising among the clouds.
All of these are the source of carbon dioxide production. Knowing its source, Fang Kesi has controlled it and controlled it to protect the clear air of heaven and earth and preserve the peace of all things.
