I am doing a project for school and I was wondering if you could answer my question. What can be done to reduce the amount of flood damage? Thanks.
Invent dry water.
The precise term is dehydrated water, Wolfgang.
Actually there is a difference between dry water and dehydrated water. Dehydrated water is made by removing the moisture from regular water, while dry water is a man-made chemical that becomes water with the addition of a suitable wetting agent.
And don't forget about heavy water (one extra electron, or was it neutron?, per molecule, if I remember my chemistry, and I may not). All other things being the same, if the flood must occur with wet water, is it any worse if it occurs with heavy wet water? -peter
