I live in the Pacific Northwest, the land of rain and clouds and mist and fog and rivers and streams and lakes and ponds and fertile land with emerald green forests.
It is bizarre that anyone would want to live in the desert of the Southwest.
History does not repeat. But it does rhyme.
Ping for later. Still waiting for rain.
Desalinization, with some insight from Israel.
I live near one of the world’s greatest sources of fresh water: The Great Lakes.
The strongest argument opposing immigration....
The environment.
36% Of Arizona’s water comes from the Colorado - A serious issue to be sure, but not Armageddon. There’s a lot people could do to conserve. Also folks bitch about all the housing being created, but housing is largely created where farmland used to be. Housing consumes less water per acre than Farms do. In fact, 72% of Arizona’s water is used on farming. America has a choice to make regarding food production. Do we find ways to increase the water supply in farm rich, water poor states, or do we all die together?
I don’t believe it, but ok.
Build dams. Build the North American Water and Power Alliance.
“America’s drought” my ass.
In Florida we’re having an early rainy season. Lots of rain.
Lakes and canals are full and water is everywhere.
As we get ever closer to the end times, the hotter and more extreme the weather is going to be. Liberal minded fools think that they can control God’s plan for man, but they can’t. Buckle up, it is going to be a wild ride...
imagine how much more water they would have if 10’s of MILLIONS of illegals were not consuming it!
I sort of remember ... California tearing down its dams to save some minnow.
It’s like HIV, defunding the police, and Monkey Pox... there are consequences to bad decisions.
Seems current conditions are following the Tribulation.
True. Also, paleo-climitologists have documented 500 year droughts in the American south-west. Long-term droughts are inevitable.
Without artificial means, the ASW isn't capable of sustaining large populations. I suspect the next solution will be divert water from other rivers and lakes.
'You can beat back nature with a stick but she always returns'
but while we're at it, WHO has allowed millions of new people to come into the Southwest/Cali adding exponentially to the water shortage....
“tens of millions of people are staring down the barrel of real trouble.” The author is a drama queen. Oh, no. The world is going to end!
In other news, the recent floods in Yellowstone prove that planet Earth has enough water for 15 billion people. If water was scarce and if covid is a problem, then close the border.
It doesn’t want to stop raining where I live. Seems we have more rain than sun this year

We have the desalinization technology to solve that problem but California refuses to implement it because the greenies aver that it would be insulting to Oceanus.
