Devonian Plymouth Limestone is both an important kast aquifer beneath the city and also abundantly used locally as a building stone, including in tonight’s accommodation

"The system has 120kms (75-miles) of underground pipes distributing chilled water to museums, offices, hospitals, schools...Instead of thousands of individual air-conditioning units, cooling is produced centrally and shared across the city like a utility." www.theguardian.com/environment/...

We already see this. I'm party of an international team of water scientists giving lectures on freshwater to Chinese university students. The first class has 1,500 students and they expect 10,000 to take the course. 10,000! Just on #water issues. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

China could be the world’s biggest public funder of science within two years

Forecast by science-policy researchers raises questions about where the epicentre of global research will shift to in the coming decade.
