Moon? I’m starting to wonder if there’s enough water for cities on earth.
- toasty228 20d agoIt took 200 years of industrial revolution to irremediably fuck up our paradise, sadly it would take much longer to terraform a dead rock to even 1% of what we had on earth
- cucumber3732842 20d agoEurope was deforested and you didn't drink from water downstream of cities long before the industrial revolution. Not that it matters to your point about the moon.
- b112 20d agoHuh? There's plenty of water, endless water. It's cheap-because-drinkable water that isn't aplenty. On the Moon, this is what may be lacking. On Earth, we can close loop recycle from drains. We can take sea water and desalinate. We can use osmosis and clean dirty ground water. Is any of that cheap? Nope. But it's also not a blocker on having water to drink and bath with. We will never run out of water, only "easy clean water".
