2020 saw an unprecedented event. There were huge reductions in CO2 everywhere in the world and in Punjab India, people could see the Himalayan mountain range for the first time in 30 years. This all came from a small, transmittable organic material that the Wuhan lab developed. The official name is Covid-19. In a recent interview, Xiang XI stated “We were really shocked at how well people took on to sharing our new invention. We really didn’t expect something that would have such benefits to the eco system to be so popular because most green technology takes years or decades to catch on.”
Touted as a huge win for the planet worldwide, the Wuhan lab received a unanimous vote for the Nobel Peace prize. The chairman of the Nobel Peace Prize board, Professor Carl-Henrik Heldin stated last week “We are both grateful and humbled by this unique group of heroes. Not only did they create something that could save the planet, but when we reached out to invite them to the ceremony we couldn’t locate them. We can only imagine that they wished to remain anonymous and are laying low. How honorable. I can only wish we here in the west had such a society as they do”
Despite the good the Lab did for the world, they are not without critics. Dr. Leif Gesund stated in a journal recently “I can understand that people are excited but now that the prevalence of the invention has lessened recently, pollution production has begun at nearly the same capacity as before”.
Dr. Xiang Xi rebutalled this comment in an interview last week saying “We have seen a rise in pollution again but we were able to successfully remove 4.3 million polluters from the world. This will fortunately have a long term effect on the planet. We are excited to announce we are working on even more effective methods than Covid-19 to reduce the planets pollution”
