Yes, along with global warming comes global drying, so be prepared with a drought plan. Your maps to guide your planning are available here at the Chronicle of Higher Education. Fortunately, there is good news, I guess, that the Moon was water, lots of it, much more than previously thought.

I'm sure the Russians, Japanese, Chinese and Indians will put that water to good use during the next 20-30 years.

Of course when the conversoin ratio is one ton of moon to get a measley 12 gallons of water, I fail to see how that is helpful in the absence of a stable circular ecosystem.

@Benighted Savage I agree, there still are people who think for what's the best...and it will happen it's just a matter of time

What do you guys think about Global Dimming ? It's strongly related to global warming, they kind of influence one another (the bad in each one is balanced)

@ jonathan I really don't think we're about to blow or melt or freeze or whatever, people need to stop worrying about this kinda stuff...

I agree with Donna...stop thinking that far. We lasted 2010 years after the biggest disaster of them all, we're gonna make it at least another 10000
