Bullshit! America, Canada, providences, states, and cities have no legitimate claim to one of the largest bodies of fresh water on earth. It belongs to humanity and should be treated as such, that means distributing it whereever necessary.

The aral sea was destroyed after the collapse of the soviet union, I have no doubt the united states would fuck up a monumental project like diverting water from the great lakes but a communist society might see it as a means to fight climate change, or at the very least keep people from dying from lack of water. Maybe we should ask is the great lakes worth more than the rest of north america, I don’t think it is.

If piping out the Ogallala Aquifer isn’t a sustainable solution for agriculture, with it looking to run dry within twenty years, how is using the great lakes anything more than a bandage that will enable unsustainable agricultural practices to continue until those ecosystems are also destroyed?
