The most expensive water will eventually be from an ancient aquifer that will be the last source of uncontaminated water on earth once the glaciers are gone.
Everyone else gets Cancers.
I agree with most of what you said, but feel there is more to it. Slaves of the past had to risk everything despite having little to nothing. The same applies to modern day wage slaves.
One point of value of the article is the history lesson that the abolition of slavery took massive efforts from the people at the top and the bottom to get the job done. It had to be envisioned, articulated and proponents recruited and plans made and remade to shift civilization to make a new reality.
The rise in populism is not a natural phenomenon either. Intellectuals like Bannon, and Harper and Farage et al articulate a vision, recruit proponents, high and few at first, then wide and low. They have devised plans and carried them out over decades.
If we want anything other than a deepening of this distopia into the stuff of nightmares, it will take the same efforts and more. Time is not on our side.
I'm always surprised at how comfortable people are with flaunting their stupidity.
in the universe you reside.
I hear they control Time and Space now.
I believe in you!
I did of course, this isn't reddit.;)
It's not a lab trial, it's a field trial. There is a ton of on paper improvements before something like this moves into the field. It's wasting resources. Think more, design more, then deploy and test in the field.
Bootz not Sootz!
A massive scourge is US private equity buying up any successful Canadian business. Canada Goose, Tim Hortons, virtually all our private media.
Selling successful Canadian enterprise for a one time payout is, well, selling out your country.
The other problem is subsidising foreign capital to operate in Canada. How many billions have we given to US auto? If it was important enough that US auto companies needed the cash, our Federal and Provincial investments should have been in exchange for equity, like any investor. Welfare for the rich and cold hard markets for the poor is what lead us to this crisis.
Feels VERY innefficient, thus I suspect doomed from the start. Why pump water some distance to the device then from the device when you could just submerge the whole thing and save a ton of pumping energy? Better yet, place it where currents provide the pumping for free. You only need to pump the CO2 out as it's captured.
Also adding acid, then neutralizing by adding a base is added costs and input. Is there no means to recapture and reuse the acid and avoiding the base altogether?
