Plains of Bengal and the Brahmaputra

About this ebook
Sinopsis
If the Brahmaputra River could be stopped by long, low-altitude dikes that formed a water pond that contained the annual flow of the great river (approximately 300 cubic kilometres), this water could be used during the rainy season. the monsoons
If 10,000 cubic meters per second (300 cubic kilometres per year) could be retained in this pond, an irrigation of one cubic meter per square meter, sufficient for a good complementary harvest, could be given to a formidable land extension: 300,000 square kilometres, 30 million hectares; that is, the whole of the low plains of Bengal, Bihar or Uttar Pradesh.
It is a considerable work - the retention of water and its distribution across the plain. But the results obtained would have exceptional value for the Indian Union and for Bangladesh.
Juan Sanz Sanz
Historiador y escritor. Autodidacta, Juan Sanz Sanz (1943-2019), se dedicó, desde la primera juventud, a desentrañar los problemas que le planteaban las lecturas de los hechos históricos narrados por los distintos autores que frecuentemente divergían entre sí. La Geografía fue una de sus grandes aficiones y motivo de ferviente estudio, no existiendo en la Planeta lugar, por muy recóndito que se hallase, del que no se hubiera informado exhaustivamente. El atento seguimiento de la realidad social y política en la que transcurrió su existencia se tradujo en propuestas de aprovechamiento hídrico en tres continentes y cada uno de los proyectos fue enviado en su día a los lugares que calculó más idóneos para su consecución. Los idiomas -léase el francés, el inglés, el italiano, el portugués y el alemán, además del suyo propio, el castellano-, no tenían secretos para él y así pudo disfrutar plenamente de la Literatura escrita en ellos, otra afición en la que, como hombre ilustrado, encontraba a sus iguales. En la primera juventud la guitarra española y posteriormente el piano, fueron instrumentos musicales a los que dedicó un gran esfuerzo parejo a la pasión que la Música despertaba en él y así, en la madurez, con auténtica devoción y delicadeza, interpretaba hermosas piezas de Bach, Chopin, Debussy y Beethoven que contribuyeron mucho a hacer sus días más humanos y el paso del tiempo más leve. Además de los Proyectos Hídricos, deja muchos trabajos literarios prácticamente a punto de publicar, algo que se procurará dar a la luz pública. English: Historian and writer Self-taught, Juan Sanz Sanz (1943-2019), devoted himself, from early youth, to unravelling the problems posed by the readings of historical events narrated by the various authors who frequently diverged from each other. Geography was one of his great hobbies and reason for fervent study, not existing on the planet place, no matter how remote it was, that had not been fully informed. The attentive follow-up of the social and political reality in which its existence took place resulted in proposals for water use on three continents and each of the projects was sent in its day to the places that were most suitable for its achievement. Languages - French, English, Italian, Portuguese and German, in addition to his own, Spanish - had no secrets for him and thus he could fully enjoy the literature written on them, another hobby in which, as an enlightened man, he found his peers. In early youth the Spanish guitar and later the piano, were musical instruments to which he dedicated a great effort similar to the passion that the music awoke in him and thus, in maturity, with authentic devotion and delicacy, he interpreted beautiful pieces of Bach , Chopin, Debussy and Beethoven who contributed a lot to make their days more human and the passage of time milder. In addition to the Water Projects, it leaves many literary works almost ready to publish, something that will be sought in the public light.
