Lake Meade, how come nobody cares

[crashbandicoot]

Didn't matter motel 6 or the Hilton. First thing to go were the water savers in the shower heads.
Ok I'm going drown in hell for that sin.

You,re not going to drown in hell I don,t think,unless hell,s a lot wettter than I,ve been led to believe! Might run a tap from that pipeline down there!

 

[crashbandicoot]

Oh I think we missed the $$$ is an experiment in population control. 🤔

Gee I might solve the heat situation. 🤔
Dampen the fires, all by myself.
What a legacy 👏
Steam would be the result, powering the world, renewable, and that could drive the water plants in pumping it to the dried out states.
Wow, problem solved, by just taking out those frigging water savers.
$300 a night and a man could produce a better stream.
Now on to the next task.🤣

Want water here ? ? ?
Just walk outside to the mailbox... ring your shirt out when you come back inside.

Want more than that ? ? ?

Walk back to mailbox and make a left... or a right... or keep walking straight ahead... eventually you will end up in some pond... creek... lake... retention pond... sinkhole... The Gulf Of Mexico or Atlantic ocean.

Hahaha you think Californians could swallow water from the Midwest? Our water is full of common sense and morals they simply wouldn't be able to acquire a taste for that. We'll keep our water over here thanks! Let them shrivel up in the desert

One of the most stupid comments I have seen here!

Thank you for your service, Ron.

Clearly we have a difference of opinion and that's what makes this country great! We are ALLOWED to think differently.

I see your opinion comes from the great state I was referring to.... I'll leave it at that

I,ve a sister lives in Kalifornia.Much as we differ in opinions I don,t want to see her shrivel up. Plenty of water in Arkansas,figure out a way to get it there. it can be done.

Let's please leave political comments out of the posts.

You spelled California wrong.

My bad,I was thinking about San Francisco.

They could build a canal or pipelines and allow some of the water from the Mississippi River and Missouri River which floods often to empty into the Colorado River.

The pipelines from the Mississippi River in Davenport, Iowa connecting to the headwaters of the Colorado River at the Rocky Mountain National Park. The pipeline will end in the Rocky Mountain National park. The water will drain into the headwaters of the Colorado river.
To help prevent flooding of the great Missouri river and the Big Sioux River a pipeline intake near Sioux City where the two great rivers meet, can run down to connect to the pipeline coming from Davenport as it passes through.

The amount of water that would have to be diverted from the Mississippi to support the states that are in question, would cause extreme environmental damage to the ecosystem in the delta at the Gulf of Mexico. The current erosion of the delta at the mouth is already causing serious damage to the delta island barriers.

It won't happen.
Where is the incentive ?
No money to be made doing that.
It would be considerably cheaper to build desalination plants for ocean water, albeit still very expensive.

Just a thought. I asked before if many of the Arab states get their water that way? If they can do it,why can,t we?

Not really, when you think of all the flood waters at the end of winter from the north that cause billions of dollars of damage as well as lost lives. Mississippi river dumps 1.6 billion gallons of water a second into the gulf.

Cost of 7 billion is pretty low and the water could be used to irrigate more land en route to the colorado river.

Flying from the west coast to the east coast on a clear day and look down and see a lot of barren land as far as the eye can see for hours and hours. Lots of room for improvement with some irrigation.
