We can solve the fresh water shortages in Altanta.

Refer to this disturbing story about the gravity of the situation in Australia with River Murray ,the main fresh water source for over 2.5m Australians http://sixtyminutes.ninemsn.com.au/article.aspx?id=455698

We soft launched Windesal at the CEDA forum on water in Adelaide(massive interest over 60 systems), our global engineers/project managers http://www.arup.com/australasia/skill.cfm?pageid=6282 Windesal® although it seems most Govts want to buy our water/power under contract, we can do up to 40m liters per day per system from sea/ground water to fresh

There has been much talk about climate change, but not much about where we will see its first impact.

Flooding ,Drought, water is the vector of climate change, we already have seen in recent times in where there is intense competition for water, Windesal® can sustain many areas of these regions of Aust/Worldwide that will be impacted by this issue, that may suffer physically or economically from this lack of fresh water shortage and could benefit from sustainable energy.

Windesal® can deal efficiently in way to lead the greatest single issue of the 21st Century: Sustainability.

It’s kind of sad really. After 1993, people rebuilt on the 500 year floodplain figuring, “Gee, there’ll never be another flood like this one in my lifetime.” And lo and behold, another 500 year flood comes along, 15 years later.

St. Louis is actually fine - we have about 50 meters of riverside district on either side flooded, and the steps leading to the St. Louis Arch are half-covered. But north of us, they’re swamped. Levee’s are being overtopped everywhere.

C’mon Atlanta. Help out St. Louis. Bring a bucket and take some water home with you.

You could be here. We’re over a foot OVER our normal rainfall. Every time it rains, all the low-lying areas flood. Iowa has 30 counties that are under water. Illinois about the same, and in St. Louis, the Mississippi has engulfed our riverside district.

I dream about tropical poultry (not that there’s anything WRONG with that)

(so sad, having to dream about tropical storms…)

At least we’re not on the coast. Of course, we do have our share of dangerous weather to look out for, tornadoes.
