Dear[fill in the person's title and name]
​
Please take seriously my request to use existing pipelines to move water that would cause serious damage to homes, communities, crops, industries in the Midwest, East and South to help those suffering from the drought in the West.
​
As our use of petroleum products lessens in the future, the pipelines will remain. This is a perfect replacement product to ship from the Plains east and south to the west where the fresh water can be cleaned and used. Instead of remaining a destructive force in the eastern US, it becomes the life-giving resource it was meant to be.
​
As my leader, please, do research this option.

Give Pipeline Companies Another Option for the Future
As we lessen our dependence upon fossil fuels, the pipeline network will still exist. Let's gradually replace their fossil fuel payloads with fresh water. They will still be in business, just carrying a different product.
Because there are literally hundreds of pipeline companies and pipeline associations in the USA, perhaps the best way IN is through our Commander-in-Chief President Joe Biden and/or his #1 Vice President Kamala Harris.

Tell the President/VP the action you want taken.
Sample Letter
Dear President Biden/ Vice President Harris,
Please prepare for the frequent flooding of the midwest, east and south by siphoning fresh water from their reservoir systems before storms and floods hit.
Pipe the water to the dry reservoirs in the west using existing pipeline systems.
​
This gives pipeline owners additional product to transport while renewables lessen the need for petrochemicals.
