1 year agoHaven’t humans been extracting groundwater (i.e. drilling wells for drinking water & irrigation) since prehistoric times? No doubt our usage has grown in recent decades. Our use of nearly all resources has become much more intensive over time. But it’s not easy to see how civilization might exist away from immediately riparian areas without using groundwater.
So what solution would you propose?
