I'm glad Haiti is missing the most of it, as they're another place that doesn't need it.

What about Aquatabs? I swear I watched some video that made it seem miraculous and could help people in Africa and Asia, and maybe your bathtub.

drat those things are a pretty new startup too. ( at least in my city) Really sucks for them. Im wondering if some sort of insurance would cover it ??

Edit -

Actually they just collected them. According to the article. They should be fine

Lime's pretty well established across the world now, don't worry about them.

More of that video is posted on this page. It's horrible. I feel terrible.

As day breaks tomorrow I hope the situation is a lot better in the Bahamas than I think it's going to be...I know realistically things are going to be bad, but I have to hope.

Misspoke lmao.

So there is 20 reported casualties but they are expecting more. But I think of the long term casualties as well. Like disease and exposure will be loving terrible. We need to send a hospital navy ship. ASAP.

The thread title might have been prophetic :-(

Serious post: in the near future, why don't we build water pipelines instead of oil pipelines? Seems like with climate change, some places will get way more water than they want, while others will struggle with drought. Is this even possible? Has anybody thought about this?

Most people complain it's too much money. But sooner or later we won't be able to afford not to!
