Let's just fill the Arizona, California, and Nevada deserts with pumped in
Pacific Ocean water to lower the oceans. Think of all the jobs created by
the salt water fishing tourism industry. If the elevation is lower than
the ocean, it can even be done like a siphon hose :)

Three years ago, the drought-stricken city of Los Angeles covered
the surface of the LA Basin with 96 million shade-providing floating
balls, in order to keep the water beneath from evaporating. Now, an
international study suggests that the making of the plastic balls
may have used up more water than they saved.
The "shade balls" were left in place on the reservoir for
approximately one and a half years, during the latter part of the
2011 - 2017 California drought. According to the study, they kept an
estimated 1.7 million cubic meters (60 million cubic feet) of water
from evaporating. Unfortunately, however, it is also estimated that
production of the balls used up 2.9 million cubic meters of water
(102 million cubic feet). This happened at locations where the oil
and natural gas used to produce the plastic were refined, and where
the electricity necessary for production was generated.
In order for the shade balls to save as much water as was used in
manufacturing them, they would reportedly have to be left on the
reservoir for at least two and a half years a and that's only if
drought conditions persisted for the entire period.
Additionally, the study points out that the manufacturing process
would have had other negative environmental costs, such as the
generation of carbon emissions and water pollution.
"We are very good at quick technological fixes, but we often
overlook the long-term and secondary impacts of our solutions," says
study co-author Dr. Kaveh Madani, from Imperial College London.
"This is how the engineering community has been solving problems;
solving one problem somewhere and creating a new problem elsewhere
a| We are not suggesting that shade balls are bad and must not be
used. We are just highlighting the fact that the environmental cost
of shade balls must be considered together with their benefits."
The findings of the study, which also included scientists from MIT
in the US and the University of Twente in the Netherlands, were
recently published in the journal Nature Sustainability.

MoonBeam and his Cronies are Pushing more and more Businesses and
Tax Paying Citizens Out of this State! Looking at Out of State
Property Myself! These California Turds in Office need to be
Flushed!
