Air and water are the 2 human needs that are of highest temporal importance.

Clean air is provided by trees and plants, which like humans, need water and land to grow on.

Therefore, we can combine agriculture, forestry, and water policy.

Agricultural Supereconomics

Global warming, conflict, and for-profit market forces have pushed hunger and malnutrition to new heights.

The desire for profits causes the destruction of forests which are supposed to absorb CO2 emissions.

  • The increase in CO2 makes droughts and typhoons more severe.
  • This hurts agriculture which then raises food prices.

Agriculture Supereconomics integrates the other fields of Superhysics to tackle this problem, under the 4 Laws of Value:

  1. Bio Superphysics deals with human nutrition and crop/animal health
  2. Supersociology deals with the motivation and mobilization mechanisms for society
  3. Material Superphysics deals with the physical forces such as sun, rain, and wind

This is very different from Agriculture Economics which only deals with market prices and supply and demand of agricultural products

Water Policy

This deals with:

  • the building of water sources
  • the transport and storage of water
  • the disposal of waste water
  • flood and sea control

In the short term, this might be connected to the energy policy as hydroelectric dams or underwater turbines.

However, Material Superphysics aims to ddiscover new and reliable energy sources:

  • nuclear fusion
  • antimatter power
  • spacetime energy

And so this power generation from water might not be so relevant in the future.

As a principle, subterranean water should not be used for irrigation purposes. Subterranean water should not be disturbed, otherwise the level of the water-table will drop, leading to an acute shortage of water.

The best system is to collect surface water.

Rainwater should be collected where it falls.

If the huge reserves of water under some deserts are harnessed, it may do more harm than good. It is always better to conserve surface water.

Ancestral Domain

The most common problem with building dams is the destruction of natural habits and indigenous territories.
