      @@mcgilljb92 The channel was part of Discovery Digital Networks, at the time they felt it wasn't worth the effort and staff. So they told me they would put it on hiatus and we could resume later. It never happened (obviously). DDN was sold to Group Nine Media the following year, and then a year after that I left the company. I don't think G9 even knows it still exists. You can come to my personal channel where I resumed making short docs and series ! 💕

      Michael Demers nah lack of demand will lead to lack of breeding and in turn produce less demand for what those animals need to survive. lifting that heavy burden from our grain, water supplies as well as the greenhouse emissions. And some people might even avoid dying of heart disease. all wins across the board.

    why not build desalinization plants deep underwater so we can use the use the natural water pressure to force the water through a "semi-permeable membrane" and get clean drinking water without wasting a ton of energy?

    • @jeffreypomeroy6173
      @jeffreypomeroy6173 8 років тому +2

      nitsujy its because you have to go greater than 200 meters to sufficiently meet the pressure requirements across the ro membrane. then you have to have the pumping energy to pump it back up to the surface which will end up using more energy in total.

    • @MJDiaz-vc1kl
      @MJDiaz-vc1kl 6 років тому

      I thought of that before but I was thinking about a power plant that uses the water pressure. The water coming in the top of the plant and exit somewhere right back into the body of water it's in.
      I think the problem with the desalination is dealing with the toxic salt that is removed. Where will it go and what will it take todo it?

    I always thought that since where I live, water is filtered and re-used, that running out of water would never be a problem. after watching this series about water, I now know it is a lot more complicated than that, and I need to be more mindful. I already only use LED lights, which helps offset my electric usage, now I will be working on my water usage.

    Great series. Have a good vacation, take a break from thinking about work and just enjoy things. I don't unsubscribe because of lack of videos or a break from content, if anything, unsubscribing sends a message to the content creator that you no longer care about their content and never want to see more from them. Therefore, since I am already subscribed, all I can do, is type this message, saying, I'll be sticking around to watch episodes I missed and look forward to the potential of new videos.

    I wish they focused more on food production and how that can waste a lot of water. I feel like a lot of people don't even realise how extremely water intensive it is to eat meat, because it requires you to also use a lot of water to grow crops for them to eat, not just their drinking water. Either way, I loved this podcast. I really miss it! (hence why I'm re-watching some of it) I hope they haven't given up on coming back.

    Another reason getting into space is so important, all the resources we are running out of and fighting for here on earth can be found in abundance in space. Our solar system is full of moons loaded with everything we need and have a fraction of earths gravity so launching ships from their surface is much easier. That's why companies like SpaceX are so important.
