2 Problems, 1 Solution

The water levels are droping on Lake Meade. The need for power keeps increasing in Los Vegas by the day. Those be the problems.

The solution: Floating platforms on the lake, which would decrease the evaporation from the lake. Then, put solar batteries on the platforms that could help provide electricity for Los Vegas.

Advantags: No land used. Lots of free energy.

Disadvantages: less area for boating. Certainly would not enhance the view. Might even decrease property values. That might be the big complaint. A lot of rich folks have property there and, of course, rich folks like to bribe politicians. Just look at how quickly the complaints came in when windmills were suggested off the north east coast.

Maybe I should have added, “More Problems,” to the title of this post.
