    Trees and green in the US southwest a pipedream tbh. The only way that could possibly be achieved is by siphoning off a ridiculous amount of water from another location. Call it as it is. The US Southwest isn’t built to sustain human life.

      “Pheonix is a monument to man’s arrogance”, as King of the Hill said.

      It’s one of those places I think about sometimes, wondering “do people really need to live everywhere”?

        There has been talk of diverting water from the Mississippi river (or was it the Missouri?) and somehow transporting it across the continental divide to the southwest. Terrible idea, I might be worried if it wasn’t so far outside the realm of possibility.

          Aren’t all of the major waterways, or at least a good portion of them, facing water level challenges as is?
