...most promising prospects for creating a major new industry lies in the sea. If U.S. scientists can develop a practical, economic way to desalt sea water, they will not only ease such regional problems as drought, but will generate demand for many kinds of machines and human skills. While more than 200 desalting plants are already operating around the world, including nine in the U.S., they have yet to surmount one vexing problem: cost. The desalting plants have been unable to produce fresh water for much less than $1 per 1,000 gal., which may be economical in a parched...

There are twice as many kangaroos as there are people in Australia. This is reassuring for marsupial buffs, but worrisome for the men who are struggling to develop and hold their rich, empty western outpost in an Asia seething with unrest. With only 11 million humans in a land as big as the continental U.S., Australia is rushing to completion $4 billion worth of industrial projects over the next five years.
