Description

‘If…’ If Lake Powell continues the loss of its water much like that of Lake Meade and other major southwestern reservoirs, we will see the bottom of the Glen Canyon for the first time since the late sixties – such as you see in this image. All we would then see is mud, silt and algae if the depletion of our water continues. Hopefully, this might be avoided through concerted efforts to conserve our water supplies. The so called ‘Global Warming’ - contrary to popular belief - is not as a result of abuse by the emissions of hydrocarbons – this is only the small picture. The real issue is that the Sun is getting hotter. In fact, all the planets in our Solar System are experiencing increased warming as is verified by our leading astronomers. This fact is not publicized. This event is a natural occurrence in the ongoing cycles of the Universe. Of course our politicians don’t want to hear this. They would prefer to sway the public into thinking that we can control this event by making sacrifices; and, to try raising funds for aimless programs. You be the judge; check out the facts. I want to give special thanks here to Buzzzzz and Twisted Universe for the .tgd file used here in conjunction with the 512 DEM file of ‘Bright Angel Point’ of the Grand Canyon. Together, they constitute the foundation for this image.
