I am passionate about: design, food, and cats.
A little known fact about me is: One of my childhood nicknames was "Hammer". Ask and (maybe) I'll tell you the whole embarrassing story.

Aerial ropeways are an old and proven transport technology that would significantly reduce the labor intensity of water delivery.
Thank you for reading, Peggy. Absolutely. Most studies indicate that 70 percent of Americans would prefer to die at home, if possible. In fact, 70 percent of Americans die in an institutional setting (hospital, nursing home, or long-term care facility). This was not the case just 100 years ago. Home dying may not be the right choice for everyone--it requires planning, caregiver support, and close coordination with doctors--but I hope that it can be an option more people consider.
Hi Shane, thanks for your question! I'm not sure about HARC's plans, but there are in fact a number of ropeway projects that are in various stages of development in the same northern state (Uttarakhand). Most of these are aimed at boosting tourism and being funded through public-private partnerships. As far as replication goes, red tape has been a big problem, at least with PPP funding; some of the projects have been delayed for years, which has led the companies that are involved to threaten to pull out.
