Human Survival Without Water
Utopia anyone? Eden, perhaps?
Assume that your country and the world foccused its attention upon providing bassic individual human needs as its most desired goal… and it happened.!
Electricity, food, water and basic shelter became FREE for the taking in every city and town… there was never a fear of having to do without at least a motel-sized room, a pair of jeans and a top – shoes & socks, a TV dinner and enough water to bath and drink ones fill; and that these same necessities were distributed to rich and poor alike, if they so desired. (The rich could opt to have their home water and electricity bills suplimented. They could also opt to recieve the same daily food & clothing allowences and they could further opt to occupy a living space, part-time or full.)
Assuming that every individual, (absence or illness,) became insured that at least these few FREE-FOR-ALL necessities were firmly in place to guarantee and secure day to day survival, what impact on society would you expect as a result of the change?
That must have been a good shroom man. A very noble idea, but richy rich people like to amass wealth, not share it, unless they can get it back through tax breaks.
How long can humans survive without gravity?

Water: $12.13 An illuminating history of the central role that water has played in shaping destinies from ancient times to our current age of water scarcity. “A fascinating and provocative work of history that shines new light on what is probably the biggest environmental and political challenge of our time. Steven Solomon’s brilliant book reveals how today’s planetary crisis of freshwater scarcity is recasting the world order and the societies in which we live.” –Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. Far more than oil, the control of water wealth throughout history has been pivotal to the rise and fall of great powers, the achievements of civilization, the transformations of society’s vital habitats, and the quality of ordinary daily lives. In Water, Steven Solomon offers the first-ever narrative portrait of the power struggles, personalities, and breakthroughs that have shaped humanity from antiquity’s earliest civilizations, the Roman Empire, medieval China, and Islam’s golden age to Europe’s rise, the steam-powered Industrial Revolution, and America’s century. Today, freshwater scarcity is one of the twenty-first century’s decisive, looming challenges and is driving the new political, economic, and environmental realities across the globe. As modern society runs short of its most indispensable resource and the planet’s renewable water ecosystems grow depleted, an explosive new fault line is dividing humanity into water Haves and Have-nots. Genocides, epidemic diseases, failed states, and civil warfare increasingly emanate from water-starved, overpopulated parts of Africa and Asia. Water famines threaten to ignite new wars in the bone-dry Middle East. Faltering clean water supplies menace the sustainable growth and ability of China and India to feed themselves. Water scarcity is inseparably interrelated to the global crises of energy, food, and climate change. For Western democracies, water represents no less than the new oil–demanding a major rethink of basic domestic and foreign policies–but also offering a momentous opportunity to relaunch wealth and global leadership through exploiting a comparative advantage in freshwater reserves. Meticulously researched and masterfully written, Steven Solomon’s Water is a groundbreaking account of man’s most critical resource in shaping human destinies, from ancient times to our dawning age of water scarcity. |
