A fusion of knowledge, technology and foresight. (The water problems of Moscow and the Bureya problem). The note.
It was possible to draw a conclusion about the state of Russian science according to the forecasts of a specialist in water problems - when a catastrophic situation on the Bureya River was arised and when it was resolved in 2018-2019.
Initially, the general public heard about the extreme difficulty of solving the problem - the place is very distant, the place is difficult to access ...
When the problem began to be solved by the efforts of the military (as well as civilian) specialists, a new topic arose. Potential huge new landslide - it is very dangerous. It remained to continue this thought and stop work for security reasons. In addition, what is the sense of the work if the created channel will be again filled up with rocky mass?
The work did not stop. They confidently walked towards success.
The general public learned about the new version of the forecasts. It turns out that the kind of threshold [the obstacles to water flow] will remain in any case, and the created channel will be clogged with broken trees, branches and other debris..
None of these predictions came true.
Not only did the expert on water problems not offer and did not set out anything substantially useful, de facto only interfered, misled, disoriented, he was also glorified, rewarded, caressed in every way, gave him the opportunity to express his views in numerous media ...
The work for restoration of the normal hydrological mode of the Bureya Reservoir was completed with a successful result.
Having looked at the results of the activity of this specialist in water problems, we assumed that soon a water problems would come to Moscow. "With this state of affairs, it was theoretically possible to predict the most unfavorable development of water problems ...
Of course, no one could predict this unfavorable development with accuracy ... When will it be? May 19, 2026?.. These adverse consequences - they are close.
Oddly enough, we became contemporaries, we witnessed how water problems (floods) approached Moscow itself ... " (July 19, 2020).
Today the news reported on numerous flooding of a number of objects in Moscow.
However, the general situation is the result of a synthesis of the efforts of specialists in virology, weather forecasting, water problems, urban studies, urban planning ...
Here, nearby, are tourism specialists with their own traditions and concepts and the ability to find an approach to public financial resources. They say that in the North Caucasian Federal District the forecasts came true, that 30 billion rubles were not spent in vain, and tourism has received tremendous development.
So with the floods that came to Moscow, the fusion of knowledge, technology and foresight became obvious. An important task is to take care of the security of the country and its citizens.
