The issue is not going big but growing stuff that need more sunlight. Pretty sure those industrial LED’s produce less than 1/100th the illuminance of direct sunlight.

Go back in time to look at predictions made regarding Climate Change and fact checking the old predictions
Almost all were WRONG, WRONG, WRONG
So why do you think the current predictions are any better?
Remember the old saying. Doing the same thing and expecting a different result is the definition of insanity.
Computer models DO NOT predict the future, they tell you EXACTLY what you program them to tell you.

perfect solution and then recycle the water… we have the technology…. Australian drought is just lack of efforts from the government as Australia is 90% desert and barren
Inazarab
July 8, 2020 at 2:08 pm
It would take more like 10s of thousands of desalination plants at a minimum to do what you suggest. And desalination plants are extremely expensive and extremely inefficient.

Well we could also start by eliminating animal products from our diet as it is the main driver for deforestation which if regrown could take out most of the access CO2 in the air. Scientist say if we were to take animals off of our plates we could recover 75% of the land that has been lost to deforestation, which would be a lot. Just to give people a little bit of perspective 83% of all the agriculture in the US is fed to livestock and 43% of all the land in the us is occupied by the animal agriculture industry.

Out west and Southern California they don’t capture the runoff water or rain to recycle it for use as it’s done else where east.

Maybe SoCal should start. Have both processing plants that convert pollution into water and desalination plants both use solar panels on their roofs. Problem solved.

This may be the dumbest video in the history of dumb videos. Run out of water? Water resources dwindling? The planet is 70% water. Water is never used up. It is always only recycled. Cape Town is literally a town near a cape. Did you notice the damned ocean in the background? Water scarcity is simply an engineering and business problem. Take salt water and convert it into fresh water, problem solved. Jesus.
Inazarab
July 8, 2020 at 2:19 pm
It’s no that simple. Desalination plants are extremely expensive and extremely inefficient to do it at the scale needed would require tens of thousands of desalination plants at a price no government is willing to pay. Desalination plants are not a workable solution. If it was that simple then that is what was being done.
Amusis
July 8, 2020 at 2:34 pm
@Inazarab uhh… That’s why I said it’s an engineering and business problem. When water is scarce enough, someone will pay for desalination. Big non issue.

Really depend of what you are growing. Lettuce only need a small fraction of the illuminance of direct sunlight. But going up in power (growing cereals for example) and the plant would probably take fire…
Claire Reilly
July 7, 2020 at 9:42 pm
So at 5:45, when I take the garbage juice out of the fridge, you would not BELIEVE how much it stank! Also, can confirm, the wasabi arugula was seriously spicy. It did make me wonder how much the tech could be expanded to larger crops — is this the future of fruit or vineyards?
Robert Lee
July 10, 2020 at 10:57 pm
I knew this would happen the way the population is expanding. Wondering how fast this tech will be commercialized and will it be enough. Will be people accept it? I could see you cringing at the idea.

80% of our planet is water? So how could we ever run out? Why haven’t they figured a way to use ocean water? They can desalinate it
Inazarab
July 8, 2020 at 2:12 pm
Desalinating water is extremely expensive and extremely inefficient and to do it at the scale we need is next to impossible.
Amusis
July 8, 2020 at 2:39 pm
@Inazarab wrong. It’s not next to impossible. There are many desalination and water treatment plants around the world. The only places water is scarce after poor countries. Rich countries routinely treat sewage and waste water.
Inazarab
July 8, 2020 at 7:59 pm
@Amusis Treating sewage and desalinating seawater are very different things. America is the wealthiest country in the world, so why was California in a drought for 5 years? Do some research and use your brain.
Amusis
July 8, 2020 at 8:09 pm
@Inazarab You’re clearly not very smart, because treating sewage and desalination are both ways to turn undrinkable water into drinkable water. They are also both solutions to a lack of fresh water. With an IQ like yours, your comments are no surprise.
Inazarab
July 9, 2020 at 4:39 pm
@Amusis The fact that you think treating sewage and desalination are the same tells me a lot about your level of education. Educate yourself on material science and chemistry then get back to me.
Robert Lee
July 10, 2020 at 11:01 pm
@Amusis Hey both of you need to be solution funders instead of name calling. Grow up you 2.

@Inazarab Grow up u 2. Solve this problem instead of calling each other names.
Inazarab
July 10, 2020 at 11:11 pm
@Robert Lee I never called anyone a name. I’m not sure what you’re on about? Instead of telling two us to grow up and solve the problem, why not take your own advice and do the same. Bit hypocritical.
Che M
July 11, 2020 at 2:12 pm
@Inazarab so what your saying is… it’s possible?
jaraved r
July 11, 2020 at 6:00 pm
We can desalinate until all companies go bankrupt.
Inazarab
July 11, 2020 at 6:03 pm
@Che M Yes, In the same way going to mars is possible.
Inazarab
July 11, 2020 at 6:10 pm
@jaraved r But who’s going to pay for the infrastructure? The most expensive part is the upfront cost of building tens of thousands of desalination plants. I don’t think any investors are willing or able to pay that. So there won’t be a company to go bankrupt because no company will exist in the first place.

Developing this technology is certainly helpful in the future for exoterra colonization. They are not true solutions for the problems in our lifetimes, but will allow us to tread water and stay alive until we actually get ourselves out of a drowning situation. The figure of speak is intentionally ironic. I wonder how wasabi arugula would taste when used in sushi. Eat more, Claire! Great work. Cheers!

There is no water shortage. Fresh water is constantly resupplied trough rainfall. And if you live in a area with little rainfall the ocean is a infinite source of water, you just need energy to desalinate and pump it.
Bill Tucker
July 10, 2020 at 5:36 pm
Really like this series but you repeat the mantra, Climate Change over and over again without mentioning that we insist on building in flood plains and in areas which historically have been arid, i.e. Los Angeles. Earth has always undergone it’s changes but people don’t seem willing to bow before nature and its cycles. There’s a reason why southern California is dry; it has always been dry. And water wars in California are hardly news, just watch Chinatown or read Joan Didion’s book, Slouching Toward Bethlehem. That said, the technology of farming is fascinating and smart.
