So youre just stuck
that actually happened when americans fire bombed japanese towns
yeah that's crazy
Hell fire on the bottom of earth
also known as australia
wonder how often NSW catches fire
if it happens often, they should just prepare a water reservoir and boats for people to hop and paddle out into
like the town could do it - call it an evac lake
has that ever been done???
we are currently in a drought statewide
"sorry, guess you'll just die because ZONING LAWS"
just ship ocean water by helicopter to fill the lake
i dunno
might be costly in fuel and time
but whatever
5 helicopters going at it, with 500 gallon tanks
each tank weighs about a ton right
that's roughly a helicopter lift
5 helis
in a week, they could lift maybe 50 tons of water at least
2500 tons of water
so that'd be, 2500 cubic meters roughly
maybe not a lake, but still
it'd help to probably overdo it, because it's disaster preparation
2500 cubic meters per year - in ten years they'd have 25,000 cubic meters
though the helicopters would be working around the clock for 10 years
so maybe get more helis... i dunno
they could build a place that would pump water out of the ocean
maybe with a filter to avoid pumping in sea life
and then ship it by train
or truck
lift a lot more that way
maybe in 5 years, pumping station + trucks, dumping water into a lake via a giant sluice
i mean that could get a lot of water in
maybe 40 times as much - 100,000 per year, or 500,000 cubic meters in 5 years
which is about 100 x 100 x 50 meters
there was an estimate on how much it would cost, but a billion a year is a bit of a big ask
so it could be 20 meters at the deepest point, 500 at the widest, and then 50 seomwhere
there was an estimate?
billion a year?
