Aquaducts - irrigating Australia

Has there been a serious study done to see the feasibility of channeling water from our far north to some of the drier parts of our continent? I'm thinking of a massive pipe and aquaduct system. lol. 1. They all get as far as realizing that the great surplus of water up north is a myth. 2. It costs money to build and maintain the pipeline and to pump the water. Far more that it would cost for any other scheme. It does seem sad that some parts of our land suffer from too much water - Yep, the bits we irrigate. I'm not thinking that such a mammoth scheme could be achieved in 10 or even 100 years- but what's the alternative? Desalination plants don't seem to be that effective. replace porcelan thrones. |
