Lunar polar ice is finite on human timescales? How quickly could we burn through it?

I mean, look how quickly we burned through the earth's bountiful resources.

Well I do industrial waste processing. Can you tell me what resource we can't yet recover so I can tell marketing?

Can industrial waste processing bring back the flora and fauna that have been removed by humans? How about removing the mercury from our air and waterways? Or all the radioactive particles we have been pumping into the world for the past few decades? I guess it isn't so much about squandering the natural resources of the planet, more along the lines of rapidly making it into an inhospitable wasteland.

I cant see the goalposts you have moved them so far.

Continue to scream on the internet, tomorrow I will go to work and make the world that much cleaner.

Oh, and air scrubbers as well as ground water remediation. To answer your flippant question.

Deploy what? Maybe spend more than 3 seconds formulating a response.

Deploy your magic scrubbers that are going to undo all the damage done to the planet. Go ahead and tackle pfas while you're at it.

Tell me what a wet-dry scrubber is, the purpose of blowoff and a recirculation line right now and I will answer your question.

Since you clearly know about this stuff you should be able to answer.

600 billion litres. By the time we use that we will be able to reposition a comet for resupply.
