Clearly you haven’t noticed that Dubai is situated in a hot desert region which already has water shortages. Golf courses are already causing a strain on water supplies in countries like Spain, so you can imagine the damage they will do in countries in the Middle East.

what is wrong with watering a golf course. If the water is there use it. Water is reusable unlike oil. It doesnt just run out.

gary - That’s true. But how do you think people in Canada, the US and UK have access to cheap goods and food? Exploitation of workers in the developing world.

patrick - I already pointed out the excessive amounts of energy needed to run this pointless tourist attraction. Water shortages are such a major concern in the UAE that using any amount for superfluous facilities like golf courses and the creation of artificial snow is wasteful beyond belief.

Do you have a brain? Do some research. Go read about how artificial snow is made, it takes barely any water to make it. You might want to think about how much power they are using instead of how much water. The refrigeration used to run this is outrageous. I do commercial refrigeration for a living and this is just amazing. You know a big walk in cooler? Think of one times about 50,000 and you have this.

the people of UAE don’t work because of royalties so the poor people from other countries get treated like crap to build the empire.
Everything’s excessive and filthy rich.
I truly hope they run out of oil so they can come back down to earth

Another example of how wasteful Dubai is. Building an artificial ski resort in the middle of a desert where there are already water shortages has got to be one of the most environmentally stupid ideas. The amount of energy it must take to run this facility is beyond comprehension. What will Dubai do when their oil runs out?
