Thanks Michael.
Because we humans suffered through famines, we came up with methods of irrigation. Yes - we interfered with natural flow of water. And made life better for us (for the most part).
Its my opinion that we humans CAN do a better job than mother nature in many other areas too.
I don't really care what causes all the floods and hurricanes these days (although from what I read - the hotter the atmosphere, the more hurricanes we see). These hurricanes may only be a small blip in the millions of years of Earths history. But they are very inconvenient and causes loss of property and death - while I am alive.
So again I ask - how can we engineer the Earth's atmosphere so that it is ALWAYS favourable for us? Any ideas?
(It may be a pipe dream now, but I do believe that in the near future, we will be able to control Earth's atmosphere better.)
