  1. Triple Typhoon Devastation in China: Tofu-Dreg Drainage System Collapse Leads to Submergence of Major Cities ⛈ China's northern and northeastern regions, including Hebei, have been devastated by floods, with heavy rainfall causing severe urban flooding and displacement of residents. 00:30 Videos captured in Hebei show submerged areas with water reaching half a meter deep. 00:30 Displaced flood victims lack proper relocation and basic living assurances. 01:12 15 provinces in China, including Hunan, Jiangsu, and Zhejiang, have been hit by heavy to torrential rain. 01:49 Severe flooding in Zhangjiajie, Hunan resulted in evacuations, geological disasters, and road closures. 02:06 Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces issued multiple meteorological warnings due to intense rainfall and urban flooding. 03:26 ⛈ Typhoon Saola and other weather events bring heavy rain and flooding to China. 04:16 Typhoon Saola is moving towards Taiwan and may make landfall in Guangdong. 04:16 Typhoon Saola, Doksuri, and Haiwei form a triangular interaction, causing uncertainty in their paths. 04:44 A southwestern vortex causes heavy rain in Sichuan, Henan, and Chongqing. 05:01 The Three Gorges Dam prepares for the largest flood of the year. 05:41 Recent heavy rainfalls lead to flooding and damage in Fujian, Guangdong, and Shenzhen. 06:27 🌧 China's inadequate drainage systems and outdated design standards result in frequent urban flooding during heavy rainstorms. 07:52 Many cities in China are designed to handle a 100-year event or even just a 50-year event, while this year's rainfall in Beijing and Hebei occurred once in 140 years. 07:52 Most cities in China design their drainage systems based on a one-year recurrence standard, lagging behind developed countries by about 30 years. 08:03 China's drainage technology is based on former Soviet standards, which are outdated compared to Western developed countries. 08:18 China's low drainage design standards can be attributed to the neglect of scientific approaches to drainage system construction by the Soviet Union. 09:30 The diameter of drainage pipes in China is determined by the political significance of the area, rather than flood risk levels or scientific considerations. 10:04 🌧 Officials in the Chinese Communist Party prioritize personal gains over the well-being of the public, resulting in poorly built drainage systems and subpar construction quality. 10:52 Visible construction projects often cut corners, and underground drainage works are shoddily built. 10:52 Officials tend to favor surface-level aesthetic projects over drainage design. 11:14 Municipal departments choose the least costly options for drainage projects, leading to small pipe diameters and minimal drainage outlets. 11:40 Contracts for municipal projects are often awarded based on connections, resulting in kickbacks and subpar construction quality. 12:06 Officials prioritize launching larger projects with lucrative returns instead of investing in underground drainage projects. 12:28 🌊 Chinese cities are experiencing rapid growth of impermeable surfaces, leading to the decline of aquatic ecosystems and increased urban flooding. 14:18 The impermeable surface area in Chinese cities is growing at a rate of 6.5% annually. 14:18 The number of lakes in Wuhan has significantly decreased from 2002 to now, leading to urban flooding issues. 14:52 Conflicts between different underground infrastructure projects in China are frequent and deep-seated due to lack of unified planning. 15:32 Each sector of underground infrastructure operates independently, causing roads to be frequently dug up and refilled. 16:20 Underestimation of population growth and water discharge exacerbates challenges in maintaining and renovating municipal networks.
