Irrigating The Arabian Desert To Produce Food Important For Everybody         


Author: Robert Cohen

The key technology is massive de-salinazation, which is seemingly not
relatively difficult.

The organizing to bring such about is seemingly more difficult,
though it shouldn't be if the hierarchies, mosques and media want it.

This article is about needy Arabs whom do not have adequate food and
material, and inspires this posting.

Here is a non-farmer's naive question:

With the proper plowing and excavation equipment, fertilizer and
water, could the Sahara etal deserts become fertile?

If Bush II had spent some of that trillion dollars on doing this,
wouldn't the World be better-off today.

How could anything be more obvious, useful, ethical, and surely that
which both a deity and rational humanism would agree upon.
