Heat

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Well J17 is at 635. This is nice.
The recharge zone has to get hit in the right places. The recharge dams have conduits to some gigantic cracks that get loaded with water and recharge.
Really need to see certain springs start flowing again. they are a very good indicator.
Only problem is SA is growing so large that we are probably always gonna have to save water.
They really need to start looking into the amount of water used at big public State owned and Private businesses. Most homeowners are well aware of usage and water penalties. imo...

We really need a reservoir but unfortunately that got screwed up by politicians as I read the history of Applewhite. Some of these guys buying land in the proposed places and then trying to sell the public on it.
That was criminal. We needed a backup imo.

I agree, big government and especially the biggest businesses use the most... the ordinary middle class homeowner should be penalized the least, not the most. I've been on the record as having some quite classically left wing ideas on regulating big capitalism, supporting profit caps and fair compe ion etc.

As for SA growing so large and not having enough water..... at least we're not Phoenix, tbh.

Need to situate farmland in wetter areas particularly back east or in the Pacific northwest. Where there's always flooding and abundance of water. They could use less water, not more. Whereas a place like West Texas shouldn't have farming... pretty much ever. Drier climates should be limited to subsistence gardening and ranching.

Oh wow I wonder why nobody in these hundreds of years have figured that out

It'll help if they make anyone with a certain amount of land have to tap into a recycled water line for irrigation. Just like golf courses do now

The irrigation and golf courses are part of the problem. Increases humidity, mugginess, stickiness, raises nighttime low temps which causes thermal discomfort

Not enough government regulation, honestly.
