TITLE: White House Set to Remove Rules Curbing Greenhouse Gas Emissions

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is expected to repeal rules that limit planet-warming greenhouse gas emissions from power plants fueled by coal and natural gas, an action that Administrator Lee Zeldin has said would remove billions of dollars in costs for the industry and help "unleash" American energy. At a speech to the United Nations last year, President Donald Trump called climate change "the greatest con job ever perpetrated on the...

Если смотреть с юридической и управленческой стороны, испарение воды часто связано не с техникой, а с правилами пользования водой и ресурсами.

1. Права на воду (water rights)

Во многих странах Африки действуют системы лицензий:

государство владеет водными ресурсами;

компания или община получает разрешение на забор определённого объёма.

Иногда дешевле испарить лишнюю воду, чем:

хранить её,

перераспределять,

нарушить лимит использования.

Это встречается в сельском хозяйстве и добывающих проектах.

2. Требования к сбросу воды

Законы по охране окружающей среды могут запрещать сбрасывать:

солёную,

химически загрязнённую,

шахтную воду.

Поэтому её помещают в испарительные пруды (evaporation ponds) — вода уходит, а загрязнение остаётся под контролем.

Это распространено в:

горнодобывающей промышленности,

нефтегазе,

переработке минералов.

3. Трансграничные водные соглашения

Многие реки проходят через несколько стран (например, бассейн Нил).
Иногда государства ограничены договорами по объёму воды, который можно удерживать или перенаправлять. В таких условиях локальные проекты используют испарительные бассейны вместо изменения русел или хранения.

4. Бюрократия и инфраструктура

В ряде регионов:

нет очистных сооружений,

нет канализации,

нет систем повторного использования воды.

С точки зрения регуляторов испарительный пруд — самый простой способ соблюсти формальные нормы.

5. Горнодобыча и литий/уран

В проектах добычи минералов (рассолы, урановые хвостохранилища) регуляторы прямо требуют испарительных систем для изоляции растворов.

---

Коротко: часто воду «испаряют» не из-за нехватки технологий, а потому что так проще выполнить закон, лицензии и экологические требования.

Если хочешь, могу разобрать конкретные страны — там правила сильно отличаются (например, в Намибия, ЮАР и Кения).

See what we can do?

"Here we reconstruct a 60-year history of lead concentration (lead/calcium) and isotopic composition in a coral from Dongsha Atoll in the northern South China Sea. The record shows a fourfold increase in lead level from 1953 to the mid-2000s, followed by a ~60% decline over the next decade. Shifts in lead isotopic composition suggest a transition from local automotive emissions to more distant industrial emissions, primarily from coal combustion in mainland China after 2000. This industrial source has declined significantly after the mid-2000s in response to stricter air pollution controls. Our findings highlight both the lasting legacy of leaded gasoline and the effectiveness of recent environmental policies in reducing atmospheric lead exposure."

I doubt you could find a workable wholesale replacement for capitalism, at least on the necessary timescale.

But I think there are things that can usefully be done to make a dent in that space.

1. Regulate the ill effects. As long as the regulations apply uniformly, they still make for fair markets. Environmental and safety regulations, for example. But it wouldn't hurt in health care to outlaw "pooling", since each attempt to subdivide the market gives individuals worse bargaining leverage and Big Pharma more.

2. Socialize markets (i.e., convert to things like universal single payer) where fair prices are not achievable and/or where the public is better served by aggregate bargaining. Health care is an example. People cannot fairly walk away from extractive pricing if their life depends on a solution at any price. They have to take what's offered. So market pricing cannot be expected to converge on fair prices. Also, the timelines and levels of volume individual buyers have is not enough to bargain fairly, where collective bargaining would be.

3. Get rid of pressures in capitalism to only respond to shareholders. Here's a summary of why reverting to stakeholder theory instead of shareholder theory would improve things. (Bernie and Warren both had plans to do things like this in the US 2020 election. Their ideas could be used elsewhere.)

4. Get big money out of politics, so that those with large economic interest cannot purchase regulatory favor.
