Trapping humidity out of fog in Chile
« on: May 17, 2015, 01:06:54 PM »


If it works other places in the world, why couldn't it work in California that has lots of fog? Each net only costs $1k and, as the water runs downhill, there's no energy cost to move it.

Ah well, the liberal politicians will never accept it.

They won't accept it because there is a chance it could solve or at least alleviate the problem. If that happens it would be one less thing the liberals could use to control other people's lives.
