Don Gale: 'We have the know-how and the tools to move water across mountains, just as nature does. And we certainly have abundant supplies of water as oceans rise.'
Drought conditions have left many shallow ponds dry as they lay dormant in hopes of once again being filled for the benefits of shorebirds at Audubon’s Gillmor Sanctuary on the Great Salt Lake's South Shore on Tuesday, Oct. 11, 2022, near the new state prison.One hundred years ago — little more than a lifetime — nature and the Colorado River conspired almost every spring to ravage soil, rocks, vegetation and anything else in the river’s path on its rapacious way to the Pacific Ocean.
But recently, human beings made it difficult for nature to continue serving the land and its inhabitants. We poured so much carbon dioxide and other impurities into the atmosphere that nature can no longer efficiently move water from oceans to land. Weather patterns established over eons were disrupted by human miscalculation about atmospheric waste. And even if we stop all carbon dioxide emissions today , it will take decades for existing impurities to evaporate.
We have the know-how and the tools to move water across mountains, just as nature does. And we certainly have abundant supplies of water as oceans rise. We know how to build pipelines of varying sizes to move water, oil and other materials. We know how to pump water up one side of a mountain and then use its descent to generate “green” electric power. We know how to turn the sun’s energy into abundant electric power.
