CHEMICAL FORTRESS by Augustine Sherman Convinced he must actually save the planet, Li Keqiang vows half of earth’s population must die if it’s the last thing he does before leaving this world. His homeland China, if not the number one culprit to the world’s atmospheric decline, then, like the United States, Russia and India shares the primary responsibilities to these most reckless, self-centered and greedy behaviors that in 2020 have brought the biosphere to this horrible climatic disaster unfolding at the now. A biochemist, his wife, a virologist, Li believes under the disguise of Keqiang’s Industry, he can both please the Chinese government, while at the same time secretly develop a separate structure for implementing the reduction of the world’s population to where God intends it. Where wars have proven an impractical economic disaster to the continuity of functioning institutions, social migration redistribution and infrastructures thereof, he must persuade a select, most revered powerful world leaders and age old monarchs that quiet extermination through -19x is a more viable economic alternative to wars or a massive nuclear destruction. The countdown begins.
