This is the most important application of the desalinized water and why it is so important to substantially increase the throughput and efficiency of the Desalinization Plants. I propose that we distribute the desalinized water and irrigate virtually the entire surface of the planet that can be used as an agricultural growing region. By pumping water to every reasonable area and irrigating it we can plant green plants that will naturally process untold tons of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and draw down the impending rise in sea levels substantially at the same time. The green plants selected for planting can be the main food and grains that are now in limited supply due to diversions from food stores to alternative fuels. Environmental experts suggest planting trees to cleanse the atmosphere. I propose planting plants that will grow much much faster with equal benefit and results. I suggest grains such as corn, soy, wheat and rice which can be grown virtually anywhere in the world where the climate can support it. My suggestion is that we fully irrigate as much of the planet’s surface that we possibly can. We can fully irrigate arid areas of Mexico and New Mexico. We can fully irrigate countries such as Afghanistan and Kenya. Many of the countries in Africa are high-stress water shortage areas. We can replenish the lush green characteristic to the continent of Africa via irrigation. We can turn the planet’s arid regions into agricultural growing regions. In fact, I submit that we must do that. The Earth’s atmosphere has a considerable amount of particulate matter, measured in tonnage. If we are to remove the carbon dioxide from the atmosphere then what better or faster atmospheric healing mechanism could we possibly employ?
