And may never get it. So what do we do . Well, one of the interim steps that we had taken was to develop small hall Water Systems into these villages. So if you have a small hall tank in your home, you can truck water to the home and fill the tank, and you can have faucets and you can have a shower and you can have some water in the home in that respect. But as it turns out, that model doesnt deliver a lot of water into the home. And so what weve learned is that homes that have honey buckets that have basically no system other than a central Watering Point where you go fill up buckets, they deliver about 1. 5 gallons of water per person per day. If you have a small hall system, they deliver about 2. 5 gallons of water per person per day. Now, the w. H. O. Recommends a minimum of 13 to 15 gallons per person per day of water. If you look at what the use is in the United States in general, we generally use about 50 gallons per person per day. So our villages in alaska are doing extreme, e

He is the author of both the quest, and the prize. You have been to cushing oklahoma. How would you describe it . Guest you see all of the tanks, and it is quiet, and you have the oil moving at the stately rate of four miles per hour. It is very calm, yet you realize it is one of the notable points in the oil industry, and we see on the reports of what the oil price was, it all goes back to cushing, which has been a great gathering point, really, for about a century now. Host why does it all go back to cushing . Guest there was an oil field discovered there before the First World War and it was called the queen of the oil fields, and at one point it provided 22 of the u. S.

The Pipeline Transportation is the most efficient and costeffective way to do that long run. Host with all that laying on the table at me turn to viewers. Her couple of tweets, one from jody who says there is a whole new industry for renewable nonpolluting forms of energy. Why are we scrapping the oil energy and we need or oil, more more gas and more more gas in more things to burn again. Thats what makes this economy grow. Democratic grow.
