Iran is sinking as groundwater resources disappear

Posted by Matt in September 24th, 2008

Iran’s insatiable demand for water, which is being drawn out of aquifers far faster than it can be replenished, is causing large chunks of farmland to sink and buildings to crack, according to a new study.

Estimates suggest the water levels in Iranian aquifers have declined by an average of nearly 1.5 feet (half a meter) every year over the last 15 years.

As the water is removed, soil and rock lose their support, leading to compaction and sinking.

The Desert Jihad - Iran
March 1998 An evocative piece describing the front-line in Iran's war against desertification. Nasser Nikpay shows us around an eerie, deserted village, half-buried in the sand. The village is famous for the '120-day' wind. Nasser works for the Jihad-e-Sazandegi Ministry -- which is at war with the ever-encroaching desert. Iranians irrigate their land using qanats, underground channels which carry water from the mountains. But the sand is harder to control. The land can only be cultivated if the shifting sand dunes can be anchored in Place. And the Iranians have come up with a very clever way of keeping the desert from drifting in the wind. It seems like horrific pollution, but petroleum mulch from oil refineries is sprayed with a big gun onto the errant sand. A month later trees are...

Rosie Speaks candidly about Iran and WTC 7 on The View Pt 1
Rosie O'Donnell leads the discussion about the situation with the british soldiers in Iran in an 11 minute spot on The View. The conversation then moves onto the possibility of government involvement in and the group's views on 9/11 specifically World Trade Center 7. This is part 1 of 2. I put these things on you tube so that people can see what's out there. Please refrain from vulgar language... there's just no need. Everyone has an opinion, and lets just have a nice open discussion :-) Also This is something interesting i just found http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/4696092/ An article from 2004 with widow's who's husbands died on the World Trade Center bringing up so major questions. People are often so quick to say that by asking questions it's dishonoring the memory of those who died,...

Dr. Bill Wattenburg - Iranian Nukes

Wattenburg Bio Willard Harvey Wattenburg (born February 9, 1936), better known as Dr. Bill Wattenburg, is an inventor, scientist, author, and radio talk show host residing in the Sierra Nevada of California.

Born in Chico, California and raised in the forests of Plumas County, Wattenburg grew up helping his father in the logging business.

IRAN BY TRAIN : Trip to Paradise pt1
In April 2002, director Ben van Lieshout and cameraman Stef Tijdink travel by train across Iran, from the caviar of the Caspian Sea to the oil of the Persian Gulf. It is the month of mourning; black flags fly above the streets, where people are dressed in black. They have sufficient reasons to mourn: unemployment rates in Iran are high and the economy is only deteriorating. Though the deceased leader Khomeini still seems to be sincerely worshipped, the popularity of the current leaders is on the wane. Even though youngsters are still drawn to the sacrifices of the revolution and the eight-year war with Iraq, which the regime indefatigably holds up as an example. In the mountain villages of Iran however, away from the big city, this ostentatious fanaticism dissolves and the filmmakers come...
