Look, you Australians need to get on top of making cities sustainable in the Outback somehow, so we can have room for millions more babies to counter the Chinese. The Chinese are even turning their deserts into forests now using irrigation techniques.

I think you underestimate just how much of a logistical challenge that is. Brisbane to Perth is more than twice the distance from Berlin to Moscow, and for the vast majority of that trip, the only infrastructure is windmill powered wells, roads, and roadhouses with cold beer. We are already in a huge drought. We would have to take water from somewhere that needed it to make a desert oasis that's hundreds of miles from anywhere, and where the temperature can get above 45c. No one would want to live there.

Rome wasn’t built in a day, and if you don’t do it the Chinese will.
