the best way to use a desert?

Question

nuclear waste dump?

Answer 1

Yeah a dump would be the best thing. As long as its not the US.

Answer 2

WE DO NOT WANT THE NUCLEAR WASTE DUMP HERE IN NEVADA.
The desert is not only our home but the home to many animals including the coyote, many snakes, rabbits, bobcats, mountain lions, quail, and more.
Deserts are not just wastelands. Come to Nevada and see the desert. You will see it bursting with life: animals, wildflowers, cactus, joshua trees and more. This is the fastest growing area in the US right now. People are moving from Cities in the East and Mid-West to the deserts of the West and So. West. Why?
This is the best year-round climate for your health and there is less air polution and stress from over-crowding.
Nevada has done its share for Science back in the 1960's with the Nuclear Bomb testing in the desert north of Vegas. Many people are still suffering the consequences of our governement in towns and cites up wind of this area. The poluted air poluted the soil also for years to come in Nevada, Utah, and Idaho. To this day, when the wind blows the resident breathe in chemicals in their soil. And it polluted the stream beds too. Many people over the years have developed cancer from this fallout.

We do not want the nuclear waste of the US. Do you want it in your state? Right now it is spread out around the US not concentrated in one area. We need to find ways to rid our country of this polution. Ship it to a remote island or blast it into orbit. I dont care just dont send it here. We value our beautiful desert and all its creatures. I invite you to come visit and see for yourself the wonder in the desert.

Answer 3

no , it shouldn't be a nuclear waste dump. it should be left alone and be what it is already - a desert!!

Answer 4

you are crazy
we live in a closed system a colection of ecosytems dimensionall within one another if you contaminate desserts ,it will eventually ,and taking into account continuous airflows ,come back and contamoinate us
they have found polution on the north pole that came from New York by the scientists reckoning.

desserts are good for movies and if possible should be worked for regrowth ,but in most cases this is next to impossible
although there has been some succes in the sahara
and also in Arizona ,and Israel .so it is possible sometimes ,with a lot of ingenuity and effort

read Bill Mollisons designers Manual-the chapter on Dryland strategy ,lots of points on how to reverse desertification

the Permaculture designers manual by Bil Mollison cost about 40 dollars.
and is the best all round book you can get.(tagiari publishing, [e-mail])

Permaculture means permanent agriculture
a concept put forward by Bill Mollisson in the 60`s
which is a complete hand book for environmental design.
for those who seek an ambiotic relationship with our planet
With practical solutions for energy systems ,infratructure ,housing,
animal shelter ,water systems and sustainable agricultural practises.
With the world and it`s history as it`s source
From the chinampas of Mexico to the teraced gardens of the Andes.
From the dessert whadis to the steppes of Russia.
Covering all climatic conditions temporal, dessert, humid and dry tropics.
with chapters on soil ,Water harvesting and land design,
Earth working ,Spirals in nature,Trees and water ,utilising energy flows,
Strategy for an alternative nation

this book also has many gardening tips,bio-gas,companion planting and ideas for structures ,how to cool down houses in hot climates ,how to warm up houses in cold climates with out using technology but rather by design.

Answer 5

Where do u think the wast sites are?? Near Hobbs New Mexico is one of the largest and it is very deep in what u could call salt mine,but it is not used for salt it is just that the salt is very stable . They estimate that salt has been there fore hundreds of thousands of years.
