Fascinating reading about the early and present water wars in California. Part of this history was the basis of the movie Chinatown.

If you ever need a good example of how capitalism is bad, this is a good place to start... William Mulholland (and many others he worked with) was an odious man - it's a shame anything is named after him in LA...

Quote by AJE:
"Feb 20, 2025
Gaza is facing a water crisis after Israeli forces destroyed most of its infrastructure, leaving facilities from wells to waste-water plants in ruins.

> [T]he only lasting fix to the problem of where to locate water-heavy infrastructure on a drying planet must involve reducing demand. This would require a reassessment of the speed and breadth of AI adoption into every facet of consumer life. From what we know of AI’s water footprint, it seems wreckless that Google, operator of the world’s most-used search engine, has integrated the technology into every search by default.

‘Thirsty’ ChatGPT uses four times more water than previously thought - The Times

“One of the horror stories of our planet is the sheer utter wastefulness of our power generation processes. We are 60 per cent wasteful in power generation. Every watt of energy we get has consumed three watts of resources to get it out. That’s where a vast amount of water consumption comes from in the first place. Huge amounts of water are lost in that process.”
