Australia has the technology to fill the Great Artesian Basin and change the ecology from dry desert to Mediterranean climate and sub tropical lush paradise and even part rainforest that will allow the continent to hold over 1,000,000,000 people and have an inland sea civilization as grand as the Great Lakes or Mediterranean. This will turn Australia from a Canada (big landmass but mostly useless for human habitat) to an America (you command a continent sized landmass with very valuable land)
How
>>543849606Indian poop
>used to be the eromanga sea
>>543849402They're not gonna flood and wipe out all that land>but le no one lives thereNature lives there. Wildlife lives there.
that's a heap of ute loads of waterydoo
>>543849606That's a deep basin. Just fill it with water by daming the QLD rivers then blowing the dams. They could easily do it it's just a matter od having the courage even if it means some boring desert bug goes extinct.
You would have to use nukes
>>543850092but that's based
>>543849921dude, who cares about abos
>>543849402It's too late. White Australians are too far down the path of evolving into aboriginals, some of the dumbest people on the planet.
>>543850013>some boring desert bugAbbos?
>>543849402What will they do to prevent it from getting dried out? From what I understand, Australia doesn't have mountains to stop rain clouds
>>543849402This is why we bring in Brahmin from India to help us progress to world superpower
>>543850403Is the environment so bad in Australia that it is not possible to have cities between Perth and Dampier or between Fremantle and Canberra?
>>543850701Las Vegas was pretty much like central Australia before the mob figured out Nevada had no gambling laws so it's feasible.
>>543850013But arent you gonna fuck up the surface mining exploitability.?
>>543850701Sort ofPerth looks lit
>>543850701There's towns along the coast but nothing of significance inland
>>543851389We are full cunt
That's all blackfella and Emu land.
>>543849402The Abbos would never allow it. It's all "sacred ancestral land." The white man can't extract resources from it or do anything useful with it.
>>543851525Is that what fox news told you
>>543850013It’s already filled with water man, it’s underground basin that already supports western nsw farmland you nonce
>>543849402Use case for flooding 1.7 million km2 of bushland?
>>543850701>Between Fremantle and CanberraYou mean the entirety of Victoria and south Australia have no cities?
>>543851657yes, the southern coast between those 2 cities>>543851418villages?
>>543850380Jeets build mountains of plastic and fecal matter
>>543851784Maybe on your stupid image that just shows some conveniently placed random towns, not “cities with populations above say a 100k”
>>543851836my bad
>>543851928That’s still dumb, Kulgera has a census population of 50, whereas Vic has the highest population density of any state but only shows Melbourne, no Geelong, Sale, Warrnambool, Bendigo, Ballarat, Wodonga, Wangaratta, Mildura, Shepparton etc
Nar m8, carn't dew it. Fink ov da roo's n abbo's n bogans.
>>543852133It’s more, why excavate 100 of meters down across a fifth of the country to open up an underground basin (that is already being tapped and used) destroying all the prime farmland in the hope that maybe it creates some other farmland?As the saying goes, a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush
>>543849402I've seen this shit and it's not been a serious proposal for like 100 years.
>>543851375That's primarily in the west of the continent. Very little in that interior lowland.
Australia could fit another city somewhere. What we need to ask is why though
>>543852658this is a better way to look at australia. eveything inside the big box in the middle is pretty much completely empty of people, especially white people. there are some very small numbers of whites and aboriginals but that's abt it.
>>543850701
>>543852837
>>543852837would love to go to south australia. too bad it seems to be very cucked and stupid nowadays. the vast agricultural lands and then the red outback seem so fascinating to me and timeless
>>543849402>resources, infrastructure and land all sold off to wealthy boomers and (((international finance)))>everything else is native title abo land i.e. basically a nature reserve you can't touch>population is now 40% jeet, chink and other non-anglo-celtic people>anglo-celtic people aren't breeding>government and bureaucracy is a mix of lefties, feminists and globo-boomers>mass immigration and selling off everything off to (((globohomo))) will continue regardless of whose in powerWhat I'm getting at is we are a divided, conquered economic zone that struggles to build 10km if new road so have no hope in hell of building a mega project.
>>543851618So will they be using sea water or collected waters from dams and resevoirs? Could they use solar dresnal lensing to just evaporate a shit ton of ocean water while cloud seeding a shit tone near these fresnal lenses near the basin so most of the evaporated moisture falls over the basin?
>>543853003it's so fucking disappointing. literally have a whole continent to 20 million white people only to throw it away??
>>543849402If Australia could make this happen, I would move to the northern territory as a settler.
>>543849402no, it was demonstrated to be impossible. Just too much evaporation and overestimation of the volume if water north eastern australian rivers can provide.
it would be great to terraform australia
>>543853099What if they dug a canal to drain ocean water into the basin
>>543851618>it’s underground basinI'm not sure that's sustainable long term>>543853053The plan was to redirect the many rivers close to the coast of Queensland in the north east that flow out into the sea Highlighted in yellow here is the Great Dividing Range, which creates a watershed that isolates the interior. The green is misleading, it's all desert in the interior. The plan was to breach this mountain range, but I'm not sure if it's at all practical
>>543849402>1,000,000,000 people1,000,000,000 indians you mean
>>543852967I've never been there desu
>>543853351why not? it's like one of maybe 5 destinations in your country
>>543849402Megaprojects like that are only for communist dictatorships, for better or worse. (((Democracies))) like ours are basically just going to be on a slow decline for the next 50-100 years until India status is achieved
>>543853403I don't feel like going anywhere anymore
>>543851321Las Vegas is next to a massive river
>>543853440honestly same. i have feeling everywhere it's gonna be disappointing and full of indians
>>543849402Hehehe those emus won't know what hit them
>>543849402no way fag
>>543850380
>>543849402It would be better to connect the lakes in south Australia to the sea than whatever this is.
>>543853206Suppose they did dig straight through the range, funneling the water through that is gonna be tricky. Even with multi km squared solar pumps with billions of sodium ion batteries running 24/7, thats just too much water to siphon through a narrow artificial mtn pass into the desert regions. Is that a altitude map? If so, the perfect place for this is the narrow ridge by muttabara up north and the gap in the south by what appears to be maitland.
>>543853637but why? for agriculture only? if we're talking about settlement, aus needs to LOSE like 6 million people. not gain. although new agricultural land will be sparsely populated anyways ig if it's purely for agriculture.australia has a big opportunity on its hand as countries like india, pakistan and those in ASEAN will only have larger and larger demand for australian food and agricultural products. could be a highly automated rich breadbasket for the third world
>>543849402its a trap dont give the crocs a canal system
>>543853065>brb enough uranium to provide near free electricity to entire country for 1000s of years>brb trillions in other resources including potentially huge oil shale fields>brb enough gold that if the government banned exports and stored it we'd pay off our entire state and federal gov debt in ~20 years>brb enough land that every Australian citizen could be given a 10 acres and we'd still have a shit load left (pic related)yeah it's unironcally very depressing when you realize what we actually have as a country and how we're being screwed out of it
>>543853762Yes I believe it's an altitude map>the perfect place for this is the narrow ridge by muttabara up north and the gap in the south by what appears to be maitland.TrueBut you're right that you don't just redirect these rivers. You'll need pumps all over the place. >>543853637>connect the lakes in south Australia to the seaThis would be nice.
>>543854217literally could be printing free money rn by processing your own bauxite into aluminum using your cheap fucking energy like iceland does. but housing bubble and visa scams instead. australians should be the richest people in the world. and when i say rich, i dont mean bullshit paper numbers. I mean like young australian families being able to live affordable prosperous lives. the australian passport should be as exclusive and valuable as the emirati or Qatari passports
Australia could easily have been the richest country on earth, but fucked itself through TERRIBLE Governance through the 1990s, 2000s and 2010s. Went through the Mining Boom, but elected basically Thatcher tier Neolibs, so sold all their resources basically at cost to Japan, India, China and Qatar, then bought them back at 4x the price leaving them coming out of the mining boom in debt. Mining Boom exports also massively boosted the Australian dollar, killing domestic industry. Australia made - $285 Billion from the Mining Boom but then had to buy everything back at more expensive costs.With a Sovereign Wealth Fund it is estimated it would have made $3 Trillion+Average Australian earned - $0 from the Mining BoomComparison, Norway earned - $350,000 per citizen from theirs.The retarded Government as well, like the EU, were basically American bootlickers, destroyed all of Australia's cultural industry, attacking Australian TV, Video Game and Music production. Driving them into the ground as well and replacing them with US cultural exports. Oh and they also signed the AUSFTA which further fucked the Australian economy to the benefit of the US.>>543849402Problem is Salt Water might actually fuck everything more, it would destroy the great artesian basin. Same reason Egypt hasn't filled Qattara Depression yet because the salt might seep down and destroy Egypt underground aquifers.
>>543852837do you get line hypnosis from driving on roads like that for hours?? I can only drive on roads like that for a few hours before I have to stop for a while and let my brain recover.
>>543854217Ok dickhead what are you gonna do with your 10 acre plot in the middle of a desert
>>543854322Fuck pumps, fuck digging. Build giant greenhouses to evaporate seawater and lift it over the mountains.
I hope they don't do it cos they'll just import a whole shitload more brown people to poop it up.
>>54385444410000%Canada and Australia have been some of the worst governed countries in the past 40 years. Completely fucking blew their opportunities
>>543854322Plus a resevoir to hold all the collective river flow near the narrow mtn gaps dug by the machinery. Its possible, but we'd have to bombard alot of the mtns just to get the rock loose for excavation. Basically with current tech atleast a decade of excavation or if they have enough bombs a few months of quite literally blasting though narrow mtn ridges.
>>543854444Can you explain the mechanics of a norway style wealth fund?
>>543854688literally all u need to do is not be fucking retarded and invest a proportion of your proceeds into a diversified portfolio. because of the fund, every norwegian is an instant millionaire technically
>>543854688Norway has a 78% effective marginal tax rate on oil and gas cash flow. on top of owning 70% of their Gas and Oil industry. They dump this into a diversified portfolio then earns even more cash. Australia had a 30% corporate tax on Mining, but it was filled with so many loopholes they got basically little out of it.Australia for example, sold 100 million tonnes of Gas, but only made $10 billion out of it, meanwhile Qatar for example for the same amount, made $67 billion. Australia would also sell the gas to Japan, but then, need to buy it back to actually use in Australia. That is right, Australia kept no gas for domestic use. Don't even get me started on Howard selling off all of Australia's gold at so far below cost it literally crashed the entire Global Gold market. John Howard was genuinely a Thatcher/Ayn Rand style fanatic on top of being a gun grabbing, nanny state authoritarian. The nanny state shit has only accelerated in Australia since then. It's one of the major reasons I moved countries.
>>543854736Well too late for that, the boom is over and another war in the middle east ruined global fuel prices and destroyed shipping routes in the red sea and hormussy due iran and yemen
>>543854620Yep, both handed golden gooses and proceeded to boot them out. Absolutely brain dead morons. They're glorified banana republics.
>>543854983ikr they fucking destroyed the country. didn't even industrialize it. you don't hate boomers enough
>>543854933Oh to add to this, Australian scientists came up with new Solar Panel technology, they wanted to start new manufacturing and industry in Australia, but Howard, being a fucking coal industry fuckhead, told them no, it's not allowed. China scooped up the same scientists, and they founded China's solar panel market and created the largest Solar Panel company on earth.
>>543854995it really leaves one fucking speechless. how does a country like canada, which literally sits on trillions of dollars, have thousands of people waiting for hours in lines to work at fucking walmart
>>543854933Man, thats some retarded levels of neoliberalism. Sold gas cheaper, never keeping any for donestuc use and just buy it at higher prices alobe is enough ti devestate most countries. You're right that was lunacy. But now how do they recoup the losses from bad governance?
>>543855064all these countries needed to was dig up the stuff, process it using their cheap energy, and ship it off. while also not giving all the ownership away for pennies. yet they both managed to turn their countries to shit
>>543849402Yeah. Australia actually is the site of the next great civilisation. Probably why America is building so many bases here and deploying a lot of defensive equipment. The only question is when are (You) moving here?
>>543855020Can they even industrialize now after 3 decades of shit leadership?
>>543855099u should search up the story of canadian lng. or how ai was developed in canada yet is seeing none of its proceeds
>>543850701Hehe it's cute that you think Dampier and Port Hedland are cities.
>>543855140no. the only people who can get it and MIIGHT cut migration is One nation. and one nation is funded by big mining companies that will keep the broken resource economy in australia as is.
>>543850701I always forget that canberra is the capital feels like nobody ever mentions canberra anywhere
>>543855172Yeah but canada's always done stupid shit like that, they through tens of billions atmospheruc carbon emissions plants to filter co2 out of the air a decade ago with nothing to show for it. Learning this about australia was a surprise.
>>543849606IF THAT WERE MY ISLAND...ID DIG INSANE CHANNELS INTO THE MIDDLE FLOOD IT WITH SALT WATER AND THEN AROUND THE CHANNELS BUILD PROGRESSIVELY DESALINATED LAKES.The massive earth removal from the channels could server as the lake wallsThen you got the dune modification the Chinese are found with reeds...Yeah it's totally doable these days
>>543854545How will they lift the greenhouse's moisture past the mtns?
>>543855271the most shocking thing you start to realize is not how poorly other countries did, but how well the US did.
Will never happen because of butthurt boongs
>>543854363Waaaay waaaay more so if you think about it
>>543855253It's nothing really but a bunch of Government buildings and low density suburbia spread over dispersed towns.Most interesting thing about Canberra is it's initial plans as a planned city, that were never actually carried out. Even the official plan that was accepted, was only really followed for road layout. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nD2r9R1tLAoGood thing about Canberra though is that if you live there, you can get an easy 6 figure job. At least that used to be the case back in the 1990s/2000s. So many of my friends moved to Canberra for Government jobs straight out of high school and are now sitting on 150kAUD while they complain they do 5 hours of work a week. One of my friends literally said he wasn't given any work for something like 3 years. Then when he handed in his resignation (from sheer boredom), they asked him who he even was lmao.
>>543855138>Australia actually is the site of the next great civilisation. Probably why America is building so many bases here and deploying a lot of defensive equipmentbeing a military vassal of another country means you're a great civilization? lol lmao even
>>543855421Sounds like government employees alright
It can be done with robot trees.>What is a robot tree?It's something I invented while talking to an AI. It's not slop though. So, you have a robot tree, it's a solar powered pump. It pulls water from underneath the top soil. This lowers the water table. Now, this water is salinated (which is why most of anything won't grow in the desert). Next step, the water is purified in the sun by the robot tree (it pumps the water into an evaporation chamber so that the water can be separated from the salt... the salt is a valuable by product of this process). Once the purified water is obtained, it is sprinkled over the ground. It seeps through the soil and is eventually pulled in by the pump. We therefore have a cycle, fresh water rinsing the soil from the top, salt water being extracted from below, and after a while we get scrubbed, desalinated soil, in which we can grow real trees. You might be wondering how the salinated water table from nearby doesn't seep into the area. That's a good point, but what you do is put barriers into the soil, deep enough that they block the water table. This allows you to desalinate a section of land at a time. After the robot trees are done, the real trees get planted, so this is a progressive process.
>>543856359lets get your robot trees into the ground asap
>>543850701Yeah it’s like all red canyon land with shrubs to dampier like a land of 1000 bridges and no water if they built there and the desert is one of the most brutal on earth
>>543855055>start new manufacturing and industry in AustraliaYeah nah Sounds a bit un-Australian
>>543851928Those towns in the interior are very small. The vast majority of people live in the coastal capital cities, plus several major towns along the east coast
>>543856480Do it bruce, make factories
>>543856666checked
>>543849402OK OP why don't you get africans to make this transformation, don't leave it to white folks, let's gaze upon african excellence and wonder at their astronomical abilities.
>>543849402bore water tastes like eggjust implement the bradfield scheme instead
Australia's economy is on par with the average African nation. They are screwed because they lack energy and refuse to build anything
