Even more readily available for distribution on earth (wanted or not) are munitions and armaments! :ar15:

Who's this "we"?

We pay for petrol and diesel for our vehicles and stuff, so the companies that sell it can still make a profit making big pipelines to move the stuff (or what becomes the stuff) around.

No such incentive exists to pipe water around in the way implied in that picture, so it doesn't happen.

People who want to do something about it, are free to donate money, or petition their Governments to donate money.


(Personally I'm a bit bemused that some of these places where people are experiencing droughts and need this help, are the same places my Grandmother was donating money to many years ago. Maybe people in those places ought to just move elsewhere, or stop having children? How long does the rest of the World have to keep throwing money at an endless problem?)

So good old NZ should open the doors and flood the country with immigrants?

I will now stand back and watch the explosion:eek5:

The four science goals of NASA's long-term Mars Exploration Program are:

Determine whether life ever arose on Mars
Characterize the climate of Mars
Characterize the geology of Mars
Prepare for human exploration

So it's the second option... you're stupid.

It makes people feel good to donate, even though it perpetuates a cycle of poverty for billions on the planet. Aye, not just 1 or 2, but billions. Money will never be a solution.

The Sahara Forest Project team would disagree with you there. The projected solution to the problem of re-vegetating 20 hectares of desert is 80 million Euros.

Also the Groasis Waterboxx, a solution to the problem of growing trees in arid, eroded and rocky regions, was USD$7.1 million.

Have either of you been to Africa?

One of the reasons why I'm against foreign aid is because the black Africans have exceeded their habitats carrying capacity (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrying_capacity), largely due to industrialisation and improved medical care. Since this has decreased the infant mortality rate, as well as the adult mortality rate, and because their breeding habits haven't changed, foreign aid only perpetuates the overpopulation as they're stuck in an endless breeding cycle. Their numbers can double in a generation, and short of a large scale population cull the problems will only increase. In short; there are not enough resources for them to survive at their current and increasing population without increased foreign intervention.

NZ is already full of immigrants, some only going back 4 or 5 generations.

Oh I'm all for it. It's a shame that it is restricted by money though. Given that the Sahara is really sandy and given the sun is fackin strong enough to turn people black... are they manufacturing the glass for the "sheds" on site? Money is a cunt of a thing if it restricts you to hiring 5,000 people instead of 25,000 along with limiting materials costs. Tis buttons, why aren't they putting in 2 billion dollarinos if it's so important?

It's about growing food and energy crops etc mainly. The initial trial project is small but a further 200 hectares site is planned.

[QUOTE=SMOKEU;1130649896]Have either of you been to Africa?





Yep i have. all i saw there was a white supremacy that arrived quite some time after blacks, trying to dictate to the indigenous people how they should live and behave.

Quite similar to here untill we learnt to live together properly. You may want to try and catch up a little.:niceone:

Zimbabwe was doing quite well under white rule. Really it should be nothing to do with the colour of peoples skin but the facts speak for themselves. It's an attitude problem - the blacks in power now are in some cases more brutal/corrupt to other blacks than the whites were.

Where/when did you go to Africa?

[Akzle]

jeebus fukken fuck, buddy. If you think we 'live together properly', youre probably a white supremacist that arrived quite some time after blacks trying to dictate to the
indigenous people how they
should live and behave...

[Akzle]

and to the original point.
'flow, for the love of water'

theres profit to be had, just not from dying blacks. Only good, consuming, earning, crackers....

Theres places it IS ILLEGAL to take rain water.
Yup.
The government owns rain. Dont fuck with it.

According to all the experts we (Man kind) evolved and began to spread out over the world from the same source! ("History of the World", TV Documentary)

Apart from small evolutionary differences we are still the same (which is a problem in it's self) and soon there will be no place on earth without us!

Space will be the only escape route but that will be limited opportunity and contained and controlled by the same fuckers that have caused all our earthly problems!

Once all the obvious dangers have been eliminated the 1% of the 1% will move into the space trade and try to control it all for their own benefit!

Mankind will never learn to live in harmony as long as those bastards are among us (stirring the pot) and the rest of us let them get away with it! :no:

[caseye]

Now that was simple, direct and to the point there oldrider.
Glad that there's more than one or two of us that knows what needs doing.
Smoke, yer on a hiding to nothing me ol mate. AKz, come on man we have both had plenty of time to get used to one an other and for whatever reason it hasn't happened as well as I think both sides would like. But we haven't taken to killing each other barbarically on a large scale and it probably won't happen. More good heads on shoulders at both ends of the spectrum for that to be allowed to happen now I reckon.
Merry Christmas you lot.

Two things that seem to challenge you; money, and the reason for skin pigmentation. Next you'll tell me smokeu is only white cos he hasn't been to the Sahara :cool:......err smokeu is white isn't he? :baby:

[jonbuoy]

That's probably true- almost everyone in Space so far has either been a great pilot, scientist, engineer or extremely wealthy. Will probably be the same situation for colonisation if it ever happens. Either you will be helping to pay for the mission or you will need to be useful on arrival.
