I say we need to be wary of the chemical compound dihydrogenmonoxide. This stuff will kill you in short order and can destroy nearly every substance on the planet. We need to ban it and find an alternative chemical to use. It has to be eliminated. Maybe Biden can do something about it!

That’s funny!!

Some years ago, I worked for an environmental software developer. I had many conversations with research scientists and others heavily involved in the environment.

When discussing the environmental issues, the word “depletion” was used a lot.  At that time I was not a believer in the “tree hugger” radical environmental “we-are-all-going-to-die-in-10-years” unless we stop the cows from farting mentality.

Some of the PhDs loved to talk about their research. One conversation I had has always stuck in my head.  I asked this PhD what on Earth are we going to come up short in the future.  He said that most concern is oil and gas, but that is not going to be the problem.  He said, “dihydrogen monoxide”.  Although I had a little biochemistry, I didn’t know what that was.  Then he laughed and said “water”.  We will be short on water, and it will become the most important environmental concern of the near future.

I asked, “How soon in the future?”  He said, “possibly by the year 2050”.

Although about 75% of our Earth is covered with water.  Of the Earth’s water, 97.5% is salt water. That leaves 2.5% of fresh water, most of which is in glaciers and polar ice caps.  In all, only .007% of the water in the world is available for drinking.

Desalination of ocean water is being developed but the technology it is very expensive and takes lots of energy.

Man’s evil, greed, and stupidity has polluted our water, our land, our air, and our outer space.

I’d say we are in deep doo-doo!

The millennials shouldn’t worry about mass genocide by a nuke, or another more bad China virus… masses of humans and animals are already dying from lack of safe drinking water.  Cockroaches will inherit the Earth. And long after they die, bacteria, protozoa, mosses, and algae will thrive.  And if the socialism-loving millennials think morons like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is going to save the dumb a$$es, they’d better stay in Mommy’s basement and play video games until they run out of Cheetos and Red Bull and dry up and turn to dust. :gap:

So, Mother Earth will revert back a few billion years to a 2nd beginning.

THAT will be the real “Great Reset”.

Glenn Beck’s new book “The Great Reset” isn’t available until January 11, but I am not particularly eager to read it. :disturbed:
