Use Trump’s Wall for green energy and fresh water

Regardless of party politics, let us change the basic assumption of “a wall and a road” to thinking about this as a much greater project that serves a much greater need for our society.

With this approach the wall would become an ongoing source of government revenue instead of an expense. The return to the nation and public purse would be manyfold.

This petition is a request to the President and Congress of the United States to enlarge their vision of the wall from a simple barrier to a job creating, wealth producing economic engine, the pride of America.

We ask that public “startup” funds be allocated to create this new economic corridor. We ask that a job friendly regulatory environment be created to nurture innovation.

Our goal is to create a staged implementation of this greater vision of the wall. Our intent is to create a environment that attracts private investment, innovation and human potential.

President Trump has told us he wants to build a wall to protect our nation’s sovereignty.

The wall as it is now envisioned is a static, lifeless thing. It must be supported by external forces. It creates no value, it has few vested interests. It is an expense in the financial ledger. Over time it will have many more forces trying to tear it down and subvert it, than maintain and improve it.

A wall is a 20 or 30 foot tall structure that divides space. Two parallel walls … can be a building.

Trump’s Wall could create a unique opportunity in history to create an environment, an economic ecosystem, that would attract people and create thousands of new jobs in both the U.S. and Mexico.

One of the major roadblocks to ambitious projects in our modern era has been securing right-of-ways, the physical land necessary.

Trump’s Wall may be one of our last viable remaining transcontinental corridors.

Much of the power transmission and distribution lines of our national power grid are beyond their design life and their outdated technology is vulnerable to attack. Trump’s Wall corridor could be an excellent location for new Transcontinental Super-Conducting Power Lines.

Why are there not already forests of solar panel power generating arrays along our remote sunny southern border? Because they have no economical way of getting their product (electricity) to market (population centers). Allowing solar arrays to hook-up to transcontinental superconducting power lines in the wall could make them economically viable.

The American Desert Southwest is headed toward a water crisis due to the limited water resources of this arid environment. An ocean water supplied desalination plant at each end of Trump’s Wall with transcontinental pipelines running in the wall delivering fresh water to cities and farms would meet a need and transform a region.

A transcontinental rail system running through Trump’s Wall, terminating in container ship port facilities in each ocean could greatly improve our transportation system and create an alternative to the Panama Canal.

High-speed transportation systems have been proposed in recent years, most notably Hyperloop. The demands of right-of-ways and security have thwarted all proposed projects so far. All of these major concerns would be addressed if located within the protective envelope of Trump’s Wall.

The wall could be built as a hub for a worldwide transportation system.

A space launch system integrated with the wall could give us regular, reliable, economical access to Earth orbit to work, to manufacture, to produce.

This would give us the capability to build a manufacturing infrastructure in Earth orbit, for things can be made in space that cannot be made on Earth.

To explore and utilize a new environment, space. To project ourselves beyond our world, beyond our world view, beyond how we now view ourselves. To become a spacefaring race.

A project of this magnitude would require the awesome power of government and the boundless energy of a free people.

Yes, there will be success and tragedy, triumphs and setbacks for, to engineer is human. We are ready, technologically. The question is, do we have the will to dare great things and the determination to see them through?

We, the undersigned wholeheartedly support and endorse this vision for our future.
