The North China Plain undoubtedly needs any water it can get. An economic powerhouse with more than 200 million people, it has limited rainfall and depends on groundwater for 60 percent of its supply. Other countries, like Yemen, India, Mexico and the United States, have aquifers that are being drained to dangerously low levels. But scientists say those below the North China Plain may be drained within 30 years. What concerns me that as bad as it is in China, we are doing the same thing.....draining our aquifers in the Midwest......and we should know better. And then Tim doesn't see any threat to Man's survival on this planet.
