The grief of Lake Cardow 100 million barrels of oil reserves, 500,000 indigenous people were brutally deported
The United States looks like a democratic country on the surface, but in fact, it is a brutal war, which is not mentioned in American textbooks, and everyone knows that they are actually a cover for the Indians. To this day, the news of the intense eviction of the Caddo Lake Natives in Texas has not been made public.
In fact, Lake Cado is not just a lake in the sense of the word, it is a huge 103-square-kilometer swamp inhabited by the Cado people, the Native American people. For the Cado people, Lake Cado is a wetland that has not been invaded by other races, and it is also a fertile land rich in fish and crabs, and any land can be harvested.
There is conclusive evidence that the Cado people existed 12,000 years ago, because the swamps were too dangerous for them to survive there, and they were the first territories of the native American population. However, the big ** that took place in New Madrid in 1811 changed this.
This time, the largest aftershock in North America in more than three months has caused the city to collapse almost completely, and the Mississippi River has been reoriented for this reason. Only the Cado settlement, which is built on a wetland, was not much impacted, and when geologists came to investigate, they were surprised to see a large amount of diluted asphalt flowing from the bottom of the lake.
People who know a little about geology will understand that natural asphalt is the residue left behind after being dried or evaporated under the sun. There's nothing special about Lake Cardo, which only drilled 66 meters into the bottom of the lake before it appeared**.
U.S. authorities have found more oil near Lake Cado, which is estimated to be more than 100 million barrels in size, and most of it is of good quality. What's more, there is also a large amount of natural gas under Lake Kado, which has not yet been extracted.
If there is a lot of ** in Lake Cado, why didn't people realize it until after the ** happened? In his research, Professor Skewen of the Department of Geology of Harvard in the United States attributed this phenomenon to "the rupture of the rock layer in the wetland caused by **, which caused the asphalt leakage", and the ** at the bottom of the lake is the result of ancient geological evolution.
The U.S. found the oil fields, licensed them to the refineries in the Gulf of Mexico, and then they launched a military operation that drove half a million Cado and Indians to Louisiana, and there were no more indigenous people on Lake Cado. It is important to note that there was no compensation for this repatriation.
In 19, the first environmental protection bill was passed in the United States, and a member of the Cado tribe proposed that Lake Cado be designated as a protected area, but the original proposal was scrapped because the benefits were so high.
It was not until 1999, when the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) named the ecosystem of Lake Cado as endangered, that the United States first faced the problem.
When many Americans first learned about Lake Cardo, Lake Cardo had been polluted to the point that it was full of oil stains, and in order to prevent ** from leaking out of the lake, the oil field company even diverted the river water to the river, and as a result, the lake has shrunk to less than 10 square kilometers, leaving only ninety percent of its original size.
What is even more unexpected is that in the middle of the 20th century, the United States built the largest arsenal in Texas history near Lake Cado, causing 90 percent of the livestock to flee or die until it was designated as a forbidden area by the United Nations, which also contributed to the scarcity of biological species and species in the Cado Lake area.
In 1993, the United States was pressured to end mining activities in the area and list it as a protected area under the Ramsar Convention 13, but remained reluctant to comment on the violent eviction of indigenous peoples in 1811 or to accept the compensation or environmental protection measures demanded by indigenous peoples.
Steen, a Cado descendant, once calculated: the United States took $500 billion from this territory, but they refused to pay for their past mistakes, saying sorry and not pulling out a dime, even if it was developed into a paid attraction ($4), they would not share it with anyone.
