Huge Water Resource Found in Africa: World Bank Steps In?

Friday, April 20, 2012 – by Staff Report

'Huge' water resource exists under Africa ... Scientists say the notoriously dry continent of Africa is sitting on a vast reservoir of groundwater. They argue that the total volume of water in aquifers underground is 100 times the amount found on the surface. The team have produced the most detailed map yet of the scale and potential of this hidden resource. Writing in the journal Environmental Research Letters, they stress that large scale drilling might not be the best way of increasing water supplies. Across Africa more than 300 million people are said not to have access to safe drinking water. Demand for water is set to grow markedly in coming decades due to population growth and the need for irrigation to grow crops. – BBC

Free-Market Analysis: We've charted this elite memefor several years – water scarcity. The powers-that-be create fear-based scarcity promotions and then propose globalist solutions. Water scarcity is a big promotion for them – and this meme is a central one these days.

Right on schedule, it's been determined that Africa has water after all. Of course, Western scientists had to make this determination. This is part of the larger "cult of the expert" that the elites seek to inculcate. Until it can be documented by elite facilities, it doesn't exist.

But now it does. There's LOTS of water in Africa after all (just as there is LOTS of oil in the world, and lots of food as well, if the powers-that-be would only stop tampering with seeds). Here's some more from the article:

Now scientists have for the first time been able to carry out a continent-wide analysis of the water that is hidden under the surface in aquifers. Researchers from the British Geological Survey and University College London (UCL) have mapped in detail the amount and potential yield of this groundwater resource across the continent.

Helen Bonsor from the BGS is one of the authors of the paper. She says that up until now groundwater was out of sight and out of mind. She hopes the new maps will open people's eyes to the potential.

"Where there's greatest ground water storage is in northern Africa, in the large sedimentary basins, in Libya, Algeria and Chad," she said.

Please  keep in  mind  as you  read this  article the  following:

Quite a  coincidence that  Ghadaffi was  preparing an infrastructure  to provide  water  to  Africa  for the Greening of  the Desert.   When Nato troops with the  Help  of the U.S., France and  Britain. destroyed  Libya , as well as  the factory that  manufactured the  pipes and materials for the  pipeline as  well as  Libyan water  supplies (NATO war crime: Libya water supply) .  It  was also  responsible for the  repair and  maintenance  of said  infrastructure.  However,  the  World  Bank would  not  have been  able to bankroll the whole operation  for  $93 Billion  per  year plus interest and  water  rights if  Ghadaffi had  succeeded.  Isn't that an incredible  coincidence?......Or  a conspiracy theory  for those  who cannot  see the  forest  for the trees.  Hmmmmmmm????  Time to  tell the truth and  be  honest  about  what  is  going  on and  why.....The real Reasons why Libya  was  attacked.

  • Hmmmm, strange that  they  would  consider  Lybia  a Humanitarian  mission,  are   considering  doing the same   to  Stria  and  yet  Bahrain remains untouched  and  no one  speaks  of the  killings  and  abuse that goes on there.  I  wonder  why?  Selective humanitarianism perhaps ?

    'Nabeel Rajab arrested after tweeting about Assange's RT show'

    Bahrain authorities have arrested the country's most prominent human rights activist and harsh critic of the state's ruling family. Nabeel Rajab was detained just days before his appearance on Julian Assange's show here on RT. In the programme, which airs on Tuesday, the whistleblower gets an insight from him, and a fellow Egyptian activist, into the uprisings in the Arab States. RT spoke with London-based author and journalist Afshin Rattansi, who believes that Nabeel Rajab and his fellow activists have a lot of challenges to face in the future.

     


  • I have read so many stories about the world banks role in privatising water all over the world an selling it to the people that are dieing of thirst. Gadaffi was going to make the desert green and be able to feed the people of Africa. Water is a God given right not something to be sold. I am in tears also.
