Re: Water: Where will it come from in 2050?

The best natural source of clean water is already setting itself up. It is called global warming. If the earth gets warmer, that means more water from the oceans will evaporate and end up in the atmosphere. This means the amount of drinking water produced by the sun will increase. The bigger storms are a good way to water down the poluted inland water so it can flow to the oceans for recycle. The water table is also replenished so the future will have a larger reservoir of good drinking water.

The warmer temperatures and the higher supply of rain water, then means that the plants will see a longer growing season and will be able to cover a larger percent of the earth's land. Plants help to fix water, so it can not evaporate as easily. Beside more fresh water, global warming by stimulating plant growth, will create more food. The fear of global warming is for the short term inconvenience, not the longer term benefits.

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.

Share the love!
