Reply to TIL of Macadam roads. These roads were convex, raised a few inches, and made of layered crushed rock; they were state-of-the-art for the 19th century. The rise of automobiles led to the dust issues that were solved by binding the roads with tar, leading to the invention of tarmac. by jamescookenotthatone
1500 years after Rome fell we figured out this whole "roads" thing, again.

Reply to comment by BigBrainedReader in New review finds that rocket emissions in the upper atmosphere can affect the ozone layer but are not regulated — Global annual launches grew from 90 to 190 in the past 5 years, and an upsurge in rocket launches may potentially undo decades of work to save the ozone layer by marketrent
Each launch is roughly the equivalent of a 747's worth of fuel (kerosene or methane).

Small scale is one thing. Moving when the rains stop is what happens, normally.
Draining aquifers and rivers to make it happen for 10 or 100x the normal population is not normal or sustainable.

Water the desert and making it bloom is probably a very bad idea.
