The Ogallala Aquifer supports an astounding one-sixth of the world’s grain produce, and it has long been an essential component of American agriculture. The High Plains region—where the aquifer lies—relies on the aquifer for residential and industrial uses, but the aquifer’s water is used primarily for agricultural irrigation. The agricultural demands for Ogallala water in the region are immense, with the aquifer ultimately being responsible for thirty percent of all irrigation in the United States. The Ogallala Aquifer has long been unable to keep up with these agricultural demands, as the aquifer recharges far slower than water is withdrawn.

From what I hear you are talking apples and oranges compare to what Dis and I were commenting on. Physical reality vs. reality TV.
Yeah I get that the herd movement is all about the optics and where the lighting stuck.
The physical reality is the grasslands are running out and the herd will starve and then turn upon itself.
Your view point seems to be rooted in the 24/7 news cycle.
I was referring to our relatively distant future, which is being cast in the now.

Sorry dude, you’ve some where you have lost the thread on reality. You posts make no sense what-so-ever. There is no longer a point in responding to you.
Best wishes.

Exactly. Clearly and succinctly stated. Nice job.
