And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
So it's actually a distribution problem. Redirecting the rain rain that fell recently in the TX hill country to Eastern Colorado is just one example. I read that Kabul could use some more as well.
Maybe Trump could threaten Mother Nature with tariffs, unless she starts filling Lake Powell and Lake Mead. :) - jed
I wonder why there is always a limp wrist turd that feels compelled to denigrate the current duly elected leader of our once great nation instead of resorting to "science"?
Hey McChuck Las Vegas isn't the only place consuming all of the water in Lake Mead!!! It's serving over 40 million people in seven U.S. states and two Mexican states. Try using Google before you spout nonsense!!!
Look up 'ringwoodite' for info on Earth's deep water storage. There is likely 1 to 3x more water trapped deep in the mantle than on the surface of Earth. Ringwoodite has about 1% H2O, and makes up a large percentage of the upper mantle. About 400 miles deep.
The question starts to become 'what do we consider to be actual water, as opposed to its constituent elements incorporated into other materials?'. For instance some minerals such as gypsum occur as hydrates - CaSO4.2H2O - was that water counted in the graphic, or not?
Are you seriously suggesting we should drill 400 miles deep? The deepest perforation in the world is less than 8 miles deep. Took decades to drill and had to be abandoned due to high temperatures. Do we even have to mention that NOBODY knows what is 400 miles deep into the earth. Who knows if there is actual water that deep or where that water might be.
I would suggest it will be easier and more economically feasible to conserve/stop polluting surface water instead of drilling 400 miles deep.
If your cup is filled to the rim and you add 2% more water will it overflow? We have built all the way to the edge of the water, many places are inches above sea level. Add 2% and all that stuff will be under water.
Could keep going but I don't think you are smart enough to get it.
One should pause and think that in every drop of water we drink some of it has passed through the kidneys of some creature going back to the time of dinosaura
Descriptive graphic of where and how much water is on our planet. Thank you CW.

The problem with Lake Mead isn't rain. It's the 2.4 million people living in the Las Vegas metroplex.

DeleteJohn, and in the lamest possible manner.

I would guess the "water in atmosphere" is under stated.

ReplyDeleteTrust the settled science, because if the glaciers, which hold 2% of the planet’s water start melting, were all going to drown.
