[QUOTE="lunkerslayer, post: 345536, member: 217"] A couple who work at the company I work for come up here from Arizona every year and they have seen huge greenhouses with automated racks for plants that rotate up and down on a big wheel. We have been discussing this at work and told them my idea of indoor greenhouse the size of the Boeing assembly plant in Washington state. Huge glass buildings where water is contained in an enclosed environment no more wasted water. I have been reading comments from other sites and the main consensus is that farming is the biggest user of water also another area that is talked about is building huge aquifers that hold water during the wet seasons, just like what Allen said desalination plants are not cost effective over large areas away from the ocean. They say people have been talking about cycles of wet to dry for years it's different becuase of the sheer number of people and the expansion of farming in California and neighboring states. He said that where he is from a small town near Mesa that he will take pictures of the greenhouses and send them to me this winter or better yet I should come down and see them for myself. [/QUOTE]
