Ok Stan, let's brainstorm this: a biofuel-powered hay stacker fitted with sensors to determine the water content of the snow, that controls a heat source powered with a biofuel to pelletize the product then stack it in earth-bermed structures at the highest elevation on the property to trickle into cropland or garden.
ReplyDeleteHuh?
If I understand the concept, Larry, I think you're investing a lot more energy than you would simply running a renewable-fuel water pump to bring the run-off back up from the lake.
ReplyDeleteBut Minneapolis could truck its snow into the Metrobowl, then run irrigation pipes to carry the melt in March out to urban gardens....
Once it hits the lake it belongs to downstreams irrigators, Cory. Love the Metrodome idea, though. Runoff into the Big Sioux goes somewhere else.
ReplyDeleteCory,
ReplyDeleteI love the headline. Pretty much said it all. :-)
This concept seems interesting. Note hot pocket under south central SD.
ReplyDeleteLet the snow lie and go back to dog sleds. The heck with plows, balers, pelletizers,
ReplyDeleteAs for the dome, I say let's take the cover off and let the Vikes play under the sky.
