BBC China’s summer of climate destruction 28 Aug 2023 By Stephen McDonell
酷暑と洪水のダブルパンチでノックアウト寸前、といったところというわけだ。なにしろ38年の人生でこんな洪水、出会ったことがないよ！と。
「China's summer this year has seen both extreme heat and devastating floods.
And the flooding this time around has struck areas where such weather has been unheard of, with scientists - blaming climate change - warning that the worst is yet to come.
"I've never seen a flood here in my whole life," says 38-year-old Zhang Junhua, standing next to a vast patch of rice, now completely useless. "We just didn't expect it."
His family and friends are safe, he says, because they were given plenty of warning to get to higher ground, but everyone in his village now has some tough months ahead.
What's more, the devastation in north-east China's Heilongjiang Province has had a major impact on food supplies for the whole country.」
中国全土にコメを供給する米どころのはずが、名産地の40％が洗い流されたとか。
…つまりですな、ただに供給が細るだけではなく、本来はよそに供給してくれてた被災農家を食わせるためにだいぶん、支出しないといけないわけで。農民は農民で、ほいぽい鉢植えできるようなもんではなく、土着の農民の知識と経験で持たせている部分があるわけで。おいそれと消滅させていいものではないわけですよ。しかし被災したからには、維持するにも復興するにもかなりの費用を要するわけですよ…。
「This month, 40% of the area's famous Wuchang rice crop has been wiped out, visibly flattened by the volume and speed of the water. Places which should appear lush and green are today brown and dead.」
公称としては81名の死亡で済んだそうな。公称にしてもだいぶ行ったな。
「At least 81 people have been killed in the recent floods, including some trying to rescue others.
But the economic pain has been much wider, in a country already struggling to recover following three years of strict coronavirus control measures.」
そしてこれは三年間のコロナパニックから経済を復興させねばならぬタイミングでのことであり―。
「In the summer of 2011, there were six to eight monthly floods listed in China. Last year, more than 130 were recorded in July and 82 in August.」
2011年には6~8回程度しか記録されなかった洪水が、昨年（2022年か）には7月に130以上、8月に82以上も記録され―今年はみんなまとめていっかい、に片づけることもできそうな大洪水がですね…。
