    They won’t drain the aquifers, nature will replace that much water!

    They won’t cut down all the forests, the trees will just regrow!

    They don’t have to cycle the entire atmosphere to cause havoc. Pulling the moisture out in local areas that already have lost aquifers and ice in the mountains is the obvious issue. Plus, you don’t know the cost in the long run, it could end up being fairly cheap.

      People were able to (and at some places did) cut down every tree WELL before they had power tools and even saws. Just with axes. The comparison is laughable.

      No, massive air moving structures can not be cheap. Neither building nor operating them.
