Bill Easum’s Latest Prediciton and Solution
Thursday, September 27th, 2007This post has nothing to do with the church (unless human suffering is part of the churches agenda), but what the heck, it’s our blog so here goes (and I don’t pretend to be an expert on the following comments but it doesn’t take a genius to see the wisdom in the following).
This is my latest prediction (you can see my first predictions in 1993 in my c book Dancing with Dinosaurs.Two issues are converging on the world that will cause major disasters across the globe if left unchecked- a growing water shortage and global warming.
The water shortage is even in the U.S. due to many factors. Global warming is leading to a rise in the world’s oceans to the point that much of the present coastlines will disappear over the next 100 years or less.
Both of these issues could be dealt with in one broad stroke- sea water desalination.The problem is that water desalination would not profit as many individuals as would laying pipelines from one end of the country to the next.
As you can see, this isn’t a tirade about the demise of the polar bear. As sad as that may be, it pales in comparison to what is happening to children all over the world and one day in the U.S. Thousands of children are dying each day due to polluted water. It’s time someone decided to do something about it.
