      Yes, and that water can be purified in a solar still. People really need to stop wasting water on growing wasteful crops and flush toilets.
      We installed composting toilets at our Missouri homestead. Water is not a problem here but we still treat it with respect.
      To save money at the grocery store and the transportation and water waste involved in providing salad fixings, we grow that indoors using far less water. I can make a salad from the scallions, celery, lettuce, herbs, greens, and cherry tomatoes growing in a sunny room. We also grow sugar snap peas, dwarf carrots, radishes, beets, cabbage, broccoli, and turnips indoors. I think houses of the future will include a grow room instead of a pantry.

    Las Vegas will need this technology as Lake Mead dries up. Lake Mead is 30% full & the valley continues to grow. City officials should make this technology mandatory in Las Vegas homes and businesses. Louisiana most definitely need it. What's the hold up in implementing this change? 🤔

      You know what the hot up is. It isn't profitable. The scum that every one worships like dirty evil demon gods only do things if it will make them filthy rich. Also I mean come the f on what dream world do you live in, the majority of people can't afford to just buy enough of those things to get their water. Not to mention, that thing just doesn't make water from nothing. There is no balance with it. The solution is to stop making garbage systems rain by sick non human monsters who care nothing about humans or life, only their power. It is kind of like making a fish tank, but you piss in it every day, and go well the solution is obvious I need to buy a filter to remove my piss from the water, instead of just not pissing in your fish tank.

    Except for desalination, all freshwater comes from the air. The Mississippi River or even the Amazon can be produced from the humid air along Mexico's southern coast. Pluvicopia developed concepts similar to these panels but has reduced the cost to where water from the process is cheaper than water from natural rivers. The book Pluvicopia shows how the water is a small value from the process, and the side effects offer more value, and how the process works. Pluvicopia is a critical technology for civilization to be saved from ecological disasters.

    It’s not urgent. You have the technology for De-Salinization plants. You also can protect rivers and canals going into city reservoirs buy placing solar panels over them to help reduce evaporation for loss of water. Also you can build large aquifers or storage tanks under cities to help store water. It’s an easy solution that helps create jobs and then save water.

    • @jackpanella3285
      @jackpanella3285 Рік тому

      Covering rivers and canals is a very bad idea.
      Waterways also channel air. Waterways are generally free of obstructions and provide open space for air to move freely. The open space and cooler water in running waterways provide lower pressure than the surroundings. Air moves from higher pressure to lower pressure.
      If air doesn't move, surface heat doesn't move, and you just cooked the cities.
      Evaporation from surface waters supplements atmospheric moisture. Over 80% of atmospheric moisture is evaporated from the ocean. As soon as that moisture rises high enough to precipitate, the humidity drops. Without supplementation from surface waters and evapotranspiration, it wouldn't rain inland after the air from the Pacific climbs the first mountain.
      Obstruction of air circulation causes drought.
      Covering waterways to prevent evaporation is a very bad idea.

      Hemp can make houses, ending the housing crisis. Hemp can make paper, ending deforestation. Hemp can make transportation fuel, replacing fossil fuels and reversing climate change. Hemp can make PPE for hospitals the same way that hemp made equipment for the US military during World War II, replacing foreign imports and saving lives during any pandemic. Watch the 1942 USDA film, *Hemp for Victory.* It stopped the Holocaust. It will solve any lesser crises, too.

We live in San Diego County and we have put in 5,000 gallons of rainwater tanks. But the water is for the garden and is not drinkable as it comes off of an asphalt roof. Also, the tanks are expensive. It probably costs about $1,000 for each 500 gallons of tanks with the plumbing part.
