It wasn’t brief, it was programming. I think the content of the link may have changed.

You must be on a different Internet than mine - the link worked for me three times in a row.

Are you bucking for the Water Czar job?I don't know. I don't think I am diabolical enough. I'm sure I left some loopholes in my proposal where the wealthy could get illegal water.

Except that the average front lawn produces enough oxygen for a family of four every day.
That reduces CO2.

That’s not making water, it converting it from one state to the another. All of the water on Earth, every drop, is all there is.

"And you understand the resource is finite? We ruin water all the time - and we just can't make more. So the EPA abolished the Water Cycle?
Are you also worried about all the oxygen being "ruined"?

"The friggin planet's surface if 75% water! They want to make more? How do you "ruin" water?"
Your kidding, right?
And you know what happens when you drink sea water - it's bad.

There's this pesky thing called a water budget. What it boils down to (no pun intended), is that only a certain percentage of the planet's water is going to be available at any given time; when we trash that, we're screwed. Sure, we could pollute every drop of water on Earth, and sooner or later, it would be cleansed by natural processes - but we probably don't want to wait the several hundred of thousand years it's going to take.

It’s not pretty hard - it’s damned near impossible. It’s easy to render it useless, however.

Where I live, we have water treatment plants that put it right back into use. We even drink it.
