China's Water Pollution To Become Greatest Domestic Problem Very Soon...

I just spotted this article by World Technology Watch, and due to the huge implications, I asked for, and received permissionIn from the author to republish it here. Keep in mind China has 20% of the world's people but only 5% of the world's fresh water. Ten years ago China began building a 1,200 mile canal from South China which has most of the country's fresh water to North China which has most of China's huge population. This project was one of the many unrealized projects originally...Read Full Story

Overpopulation: Uncomfortable Conclusions

By sementivae on | From sementivae.com

Last year, Sementivae solicited votes on the largest contributor(s) of environmental catastophe. Two causes were voted for overwhelmingly and ended-up neck-and-neck. The first of these contributors was deemed capitalism. This didn't surprise me - I had expected most of Sementivae's voters to plump for this option.

The last few days the rapidly increasing numbers of humans have been getting a lot of press, probably well-merited. The New York Times had an interesting story yesterday about a campaign to link birth rates in the developed world with species extinction. Were the US birth rate reduced from about two children per woman (below the replacement rate) to 1.5, green house gases would decline by 10 percent by 2050 and by 33 by the end of the century, the story says. Canada's birthrate already is...Read Full Story

Technology to solve Beijing's water shortage readily available from Canada

By ChinaTechnologyNews on

As of today, Beijing has gone a record 105 days without a drop of rainfall as city water reservoirs reach their lowest levels in 67 years. Over the last five years all of China has suffered its worst droughts in history, especially in Guangdong Province which lost over $38Billion USD in crops due to the water shortage. But with 18 million people living in Beijing, clearly this is where the drought has affected the most people in China. With Global Warming and water pollution that has...Read Full Story
