khunPer Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Shade Balls...? A Facebook friend just shared this video, which looks like one of the many “waste-of-time” fun or weird videos that are often shared – but it appeared not to be: https://video-sin1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hvideo-xft1/v/t43.1792-2/11749207_884743824949076_2026427984_n.mp4?efg=eyJybHIiOjI5NzAsInJsYSI6MTg0MX0%3D&rl=2970&vabr=1980&oh=4b3514399487bb6c7c4d64f928228802&oe=55CC7847 I always Google strange stories to check background or reliable sources, and the first results for “Shade balls” was from ABC (today): http://www.abc.net.au/news/2015-08-13/shade-balls-used-to-fight-la-drought/6694564 - and Blomberg Business (August 11th): http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-08-11/who-s-behind-the-96-million-shade-balls-they-just-rolled-into-l-a-s-reservoirs- “Shade Balls” seem to be able to preserve water in reservoirs during drought, so after reading all the news updates in ThaiVisa about farmers water problems, perhaps something worth to consider in Thailand, probably both for small and large scale. Just wished to share the information... (A moderator please move to a sub-forum, if General is not the right place.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaryB1263 Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 I deleted the post on Facebook. Sounded too much like a personal problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
