Water Shortages: The greatest Threat to America?

Look up how many gallons of water are in earthsd atmosphere and then stop with the water shortage is going to kill us all nonsense. Here I will do it for you.

Theres a gazillion billion gallons of water in the world so there’s no way that the West could be restricting water right now.

But they are. Today.

The problem is not the amount of water.

That is a problem when it comes to ground water, not atmospheric water.

Well I will surely agree with you on that one Samm. Population pressure is obviously the number one culprit.

And it’s not only direct consumption of water. Most of the water used by all those people goes to agriculture to feed everybody.

Obviously matt damon cqn make it rain on mars he is far superior than our earth bound enviro tree huggers.

Also solvable, indoor farming uses a fraction of the water.

Cloud seeding is part of the drought contingency plan. They don’t seem to think it’s the silver bullet that you do, but they do plan to use it

Ground and surface water comes from atmospheric water. The amount of water on Earth is essentially the same now as there ever was. But humans for the most part, only tap water for their use at one point in the water cycle.

Sure, if you have lots of money to make it so.

But now we know how to tap it from the atmosphere economically. If I didn’t have a well I would already be producing my own that way. It would be cheaper then my city water.

Condensers to capture water from the air are impractical for most locations (particularly for high volumes) and making it rain only helps the area over where it rains unless you can capture it. The later also comes with some risk as it is very difficult to control the quantity of the “harvest.” The biggest problem man has with the increase in atmospheric water due to higher temperatures is keeping it from raining when you don’t want it to rain in amounts that are too much to deal with. The frequency and severity of floods is on the rise.

Well if all libs stop breeding that will help our environment for sure.

Water shortages aren’t the greatest threat to America but rather Woke Libs/Socialists.

You won’t care if Johnny learns that black people have been treated poorly historically- if you are experiencing a massive water shortage.

Yup, there’s another one. Domestic lawns in particular drive me up the wall.

Lawns are stupid. All they do is cost money and labor. Food Forests are badass and feed people.

For real. That we cannot get behind solving our water problem is what makes me think the country is in real trouble. Not the protests, not Trump, not the partisan divide.

Just the simple inability to identify a problem, and devise a plan to solve it with a long term solution. It’s no way to run a country

We can, but we won’t because this is another issue that will be used to divide and control people.

No, they aren’t and I already linked a high volume producer.

How will I experience such a shortage if I can pull all the water I need out of thin air?

Maybe. It’s an existential problem, though. Comity, ar at least cooperation will eventually happen.

It is used for modern comforts in the middle east. It was used to fend off rain storms during the Beijing olympics. It was used against the Viet Cong on the Ho Chi Minh Trail.

The dry ice industry would thrive. I hear there’s plenty of CO2 looking for reuse. lol

That’s what everything always boils down to - controlling the mob. Bread, circus, and most of all, fear and resentment.

Yeah, you keep saying that
