THECANDU SOLUTION to WEST COAST WILDFIRES

A MESSAGE FOR GOVERNOR ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER







A SOLUTION to DEFEAT FUTURE CALIFORNIA FOREST FIRES

WHAT IS NEEDED IS AN INLAND WATERWAY NAVIGATION SYSTEM- Inter coastal series of canals from the Pacific Ocean going inland for up to 50 miles inland. These inland canals would run perpendicular to the coast. Off of these inland waterways there could several possibilities:

1. An inland saltwater sprinkler system ,or if desalination at a reasonable cost is possible, the sprinkler system would have unsalted sea water. The sprinkler system could be composed of a string of ocean water reservoirs off of the inland waterway canals.

2. An inland series of man-made lakes that would be fed water from the inland waterway canal system.

If we were to look at the Inter coastal system in Florida and many of its man-made lakes, a framework of possibilities would be available.

One of the advantages of the inland canal waterways would be that shoreline residential properties to the canals might be very desirable from a real estate point of view.

If we analyze the cost of each forest fire in the past ten years , the cost and benefit of an inland inter coastal navigation system may not seem so insurmountable.
