Dubai Is Building a Refrigerated Beach

dataxtream writes "The world's first refrigerated beach is to be built at a luxury hotel in Dubai, located along the southern coast of the Persian Gulf. The beach will include heat-absorbing pipes under the sand along with large wind blowers, which will keep tourists cool and guard their feet against the hot sand. Half of me says these guys need a reality check, the other half wants to go there." I believe I've just thought of a way we could solve this whole global warming thing I've been hearing about.

    I've never heard Dubai speak of how they plan to handle potential hostility from extremists. It wont be long before what happened in India finds its way to Dubai

    Perhaps their plan is to not interfere with other countries.

    ""Dubai is like a bubble world where the things that are worrying the rest of the world, like climate change, are simply ignored so that people can continue their destructive lifestyles," she said. "

    -Good for them. Here in The People's Republik Of Kalifornia, people's lifestyles are restricted by people who think they should be able to force people to live the way environmentalists want, and be forced to care about issues that people don't want to care about.

    Funny how those hypocrites in Berzerkely ("Berkeley") talk about freedom, yet create laws and restrictions to force those of us who don't share their environmental or political agenda to conform to their beliefs.
