Water Sources

Current Synthesis on Water Resources

Proposed: Water Resources Allocated Proportional to Regional and Community Population Needs
An agreed upon comfortable standard of living met via a standard Water supply that is provided for communities based on region and population.

We can avoid involving costly consultation, advisory and regulatory boards (e.g. When McKinsey Comes to Town, Bogdanich & Forsythe, 2022) if we made access to such knowledge freely available to everyone. We need to leverage the hands-on experience and knowledge of real-world farmers, engineers and designers through online platforms such as this until we clarify all the necessary approaches to deal with water needs for all our human, animal and plant populations, all over the world.

This matter requires attention from folks who are knowledgeable in water purification, irrigation, civil engineering, farming, permaculture, circular economies, and so on.

Existing Solutions

I would love to see solutions such as Mr. Beast's 30year Water Wells be assessed for negative impacts, side effects or other possibly undesirable byproducts. When simple approaches to problems can be identified as stable, sustainable, safe and relevant, then they can be streamlined to all the communities that share similar landscape and topographies. Solutions for differing environments can mimic this streamlined approach to solving their own water needs accordingly.

I understand Israel's desalination solutions are state-of-the-art. How costly are they? Where else can they be replicated and at what costs? Are such solutions patented? Should they be?
