The desert has a great thermal amplitude between day and night. A deep well is a place that stays cool during the day and can serve as a condenser. The wells are not just for accessing water but for condensing water vapor from the air and collecting it as water to feed the irrigation system.

You don't really believe that scientsit were "shocked", do you? Maybe they hd had no clue when they found them first but , exactly as you say, they probably have found out by just talking to the locals. This guy doesn't even provide one single source for any of his claims.

What happens when you dig a hole in sand? You're right the sides cave-in , how do you fix this problem you're right again you make spirals. Have you ever seen a mining operation? See how easy this was

I thought it damn bloody obvious it was wells or at least part of a watering system. The very fact that they're in a desert makes it even more obvious.

Plus the design & look of the canals are beautiful.

Keep thinking how much that would be enhanced by: small, frequently placed bunds, swales, checkdams, etc to harvest rainwater, the effect by being to recharge the aquifer, protect against drought, floods and wildfires; planting pioneer trees to protect the ground from the soil-killing effects of sun solarization, protecting from dessication from wind and sun, as well as soil erosion from from wind and rain, adding to food diversity and security depending on the trees chosen; polycultures with fertility, pest and weed management assisted by livestock. These measures would add farmer/community/national resiliency.

@@daisyy99 Thank you. It is important to find 'best practices' convergence between science and practical field findings. Cities could use a lot more bioswales to manage runoff/harvest rainwater, as well. Bioswales are planted (best use is with appropriate trees, where practical) smaller, frequent depressions that have street and roof runoff diverted to them. Bioswales primarily use biological processes of plants, soil biota and soil hydrology to manage rainwater runoff. Bioswales have a lot of plusses: They add beauty. These greenery pockets reduce wind and sun impacts. This adds to walking, cycling and driving comfort because of shade and wind reduction. The shade and the wind control positively reduces heating and cooling costs as well. Bioswales with good curb design allows bioswales to accumulate water and leaves so they self manage to a higher degree. They collect street litter that is then easily collected instead of trash accumulating in walkways. Bioswales reduce strain on wastewater treatment plants (and power grid strain) and thus also reduces the amount of effluent (poo) running into waterways. It can reduce energy brownouts. This is because managing rainwater, city water and irrigation water is quite energy intensive and the management thru conventional means is expensive. Because of reduced energy/fuel demand it reduces household/building/city energy bills. Bioswales in parking lots reduce new building and maintenance costs as well as large parking lots can use the landscaping to serve dual purposes instead of building ugly oversized retention/detention ponds. They reduce heat island effects in roads and reduce buckling, erosion and can easily be incorporated to traffic porkchops, other areas that are often paved over by unused by both traffic and pedestrians, cyclists, etc. They again reduce the need to enlarge and expand underground storm drain infrastructure. This is a positive for taxpayers. Bioswales remove air and water pollution. The reductions in water pollution helps eel and salmon runs, as well as other creatures. They recharge the water table/aquifers in cities where there tends to be a lot of paving, and other hard surfaces. This reduces ground subsidence/sinking which can damage pipes, building foundations, etc. Bioswales' value exceeds their initial low costs to install as they have many more plusses. One aspect to get right if there is curbing is to make sure the initial construction is spot-on. You can have flooding and lose litter and leaf litter if one end of the bioswale is higher than the surrounding sidewalk or street. Same thing if the bioswale curbing has both an in let and an 'outlet.' The outlet ends up washing out the mulch and litter thus creating maintenance expenses. You only need the inlet. Water stays level...

May have a different meaning but I know living in close proximity to someone in a poorly made townhouse where you can hear when they are walking, flushing a toilet, coughing, showering or sounds like they are in your house in the next room.

@@genielaury Thank you for sharing that. Think people need a touch of their own personal greenspace in some iteration. Cabrini Green is an example of a harsh environment that made for violence and despair. Expecting everyone to be warehoused in a 30 story tiny space without the benefit of stepping directly outside from one's own flat is hardly enticement to condense. So for some a balcony with street trees may satisfy that need. A lot of benefit can be achieved with apartment buildings with 'green envelopes.' Itadds a lot of privacy from the street while adding beauty from both within and from the street. The latter needs to be made to last so the effort of building them is worth the extra concrete. Think density could be improved if there were more terrace flats/ town homes, provided there are backyards. Think zoning rules that cause too much nimbyism is the problem.

Pretty clever way to dig a well in the sand. You can walk down deeper and deeper as you are digging and the stones keep the sand from shifting in and filling the hole. The wind channel sounds not likely. Water finds it's own path due to underground lithology , pressure and gravity.

Population needs to be in balance with jobs, resources, nature and the environment. Having a bigger population in any country than the country can support makes no sense. Access to food, water, shelter, energy and jobs should guide population levels. The worlds population is still expected to add another billion people to feed, clothe and produce pollution. Humans are crowding out all other species of plants and animals. Education and birth control are key to reducing poverty and hunger. Having a child that you can not provide for yourself is cruel and irresponsible. We need solutions not just sympathy. Endless population growth is not sustainable on a finite planet. Every country needs to "TRY" to be more self sufficient. When there are not enough resources to sustain a population something has to give. Countries need to focus on quality of life for their citizens and not just quantity of life for cheap labor. Why import fossil fuels when wind and solar energy can be produced locally and solar energy can power electric vehicles. We need solutions not just sympathy.
