  1. Never knew that. Interesting. Can't they just rebuild them or too costly? Why remove them in the first place anyway.

  2. We have enough water we just need to be more efficient with it. Take a page from Las Vegas which is insanely efficient for our cities and Isreal for our farming practices. Crazy that these new FABs and other huge manufacturing plants coming in places where water is scarce... They require a HUGE amount of fresh water to operate. Why are people building them in the drier areas is beyond me (I know why tax incentives and they have politicians who will bend over backwards because of money). Since people are so against nuclear we are going to see water bills go up sharply as we are going to have to start building more desaltion plants for some cities. Why we let so much water go into the oceon is beyond me too. Recycle it! What worries me too is the massive aquafers. Either they are drying up or being polluted. Anyway water shortages are going to be one of the biggest issues going forward. Still don't comprehend how we can see more rain on average but less water to hold. Also why does it matter if the water comes from a snow pack or from a deluge from up in the mountains? Either way it's flowing in the same direction is it not? Just a laymen do not mind me.

  3. Joe on your closing segment. What do you mean buy organic? Organic doesn't mean it is healthier... Natural doesn't mean it is good. All natural and organic can be just as bad as artifical if not worse... It all depends on exactly we are talking about but I'm tired of hearing that BS. Sustainable, eco friendly, etc can be done with help from artificial or man made chemical fertizliers, pesticides, vaccinats and gmos as well. Take the best from both worlds and use it. We need to be more efficient with what we use. Not using preservatives is insane too when so much food is already wasted5. There are ones that arent terrible either. If my franken fruit is weather and disease resistant and has similar nutrients I'm going to go with that.
