If you covered part or all of with solar panels you can generate electricity while reducing evaporation. In addition the water would keep the panels cooler which would increase their efficiency. Just an idea.

Water balloon for fire safety 🎉

Well they can grow less food now thanks to an experimental mandated medical procedure

Firstly, what's with the stupid loud music ffs!!?? Dumb producer. This could be a great initiative if only they can save some of the massive water loss from evaporation. It will be a huge loss. However, there are ways to alleviate the loss. Give me a bell.

Rehabilitation is better than mother nature did in the first place.You got to move the world 1 load at a time to put it in the right place.We need these resources.pepole just don't understand

And in lunch and smoking breaks employees try to hit it with rocks and the really tall one punches it repeatedly

He sounds like my two-year-old niece explaining what she saw on TV.

Goodness graciousssss

Just useless

How many 349s are on site

He's the boss.

Low flying plane marker. Probably power lines hooked up there 😮

Song ar 2:30 ?

I feel like this video is just a big ad for ames in hiring more people

What a dumb idea.

I want to see the drone shots 😊

you have to come to the cooper Minnie in az

If you need to disrupt the natural flow of any water, you’ve &ucked up somewhere along the line. My guess is there’s too many people requiring more resources than nature can provide? If so, fix the human error, stop trying to milk more from nature.

Ciao

Lol the cat logo is painted on

i have one question, why not use metal wheels instead of rubber tires? seems like that can't do any harm and will keep shape much longer than rubber

Basically its there to tell where dumper truck has to position himself so when the bucket swings around the dump truck is in the right position.

its a guy shovel.😂

Must be Donald Trump's balls. His balls are so big it needs to be csrried by a mine shovel!

why not leave the water in the existing canal and farmers get from there, sounds like a con job.

Looking at the job site, that brush doesn't look adequate. Gonna need a hose and a stick. 😂

What a massive effort. I wonder if the various extraction methods ever stop/start depending on the price of gold (presumably some of the extraction methods cost more/less per ounce)? Or is the price of gold always high enough for it to be worth running the operation always at full steam ahead of time

Another mega dam to drain the already struggling river system just for the Chinese to grow more cotton .

Thanks for the video, it is really interesting to see. Sorry to be a pedant though but 1m is almost 3.3 feet which makes a big difference to a structure that size!

Evaporation, sure. What about algae?

nimo birds.. mine mine mine mine mine mine mine mine mine

That's so rad.

Stockpiling water to sell back to farmers in drought is beyond immoral, it is evil it's villainous.

Waves in a reservoir 😅

Proud to have built the largest crusher ever for this giant excavator! Great combo!

Less video of the presenter, more of the subject next time plz.

Learn to drive a bloody manual car.

This is like the excavator family teaching to their son

Kelpy not dingo. Dingo's are not friendly

Why is the guy talking so dodgy, pauses where there shouldn't be etc... good content but work on the delivery😊

It seems like a lot of work but us Aussies are bloody geniuses

Who told you it was to grow food mate? We call them billabongs and they are for having a dip.😂😂😂

Those Heavy equipment have balls!!!

I worked at Kress for a little while. They did some pretty amazing stuff. Got to see some steel mill slab carriers being built for Dofasco.

That's a nice evaporation pond.

This can't be true the greens and Labor party would NEVER have approved it

What's up with the CAT logo in the opening shot? Did it come like that?

So the water's coming out of the Mighty Murrumbidge? Anyone worked out the evaporation rate?

Putin's gang should copy this construction method

Arr yes more "flood" water storage. Seems like ir has been going grear for the environment. I wonder who wil own the water. I get that in theory it works but time as shown when water is used as a commodity and is unregulated due to compromised government it just becomes a massive failure for the environment and the farmers up stream. I doubt any one could say with confidence thar this reservior wont be stealing water and wont have a negative impact on the environment. I get that environment damage but enough has already been done. For food i could deal with, for cotton its a joke.
