Cambodia is filling in some wetlands:
A conservative estimate of the amount of sand needed to fill in the wetlands is some 77 million cubic metres — more than 30 Great Giza Pyramids full of sand.
How do they move the pyramids?
I’ve always thought rolling on logs most likely.
But Cambodia is a long way from Egypt
Then they need to be inverted and filled up all while balancing on that little point. Not very practical.
And slaves aren’t as easy to come by these days.
Even thermometers, or whatever they are

I like the one small saltie.
One of the pollies dropped a comment last night on the news about filling the MCG three times, but I missed what it related to.
Plenty of MCG chat on the Planet A show over the last 3 weeks…
“Last financial year, the Central Power House at Umuwa consumed about 2.8 million litres of diesel to supply electricity to APY customers – that’s more than an Olympic swimming pool of diesel fuel,” he said.
Relating to a PV/battery installation being installed by the South Australian government at a power station in the remote Aboriginal community of Umuwa, to deliver a cleaner and more reliable power supply across the Anangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara Lands in the state’s north.
it would surely be more relevant and relatable to describe how many tankers/road trains that was, given the way it gets there
Or the cost in monetary terms, as well as how much CO2 was produced by burning it.
What to do with the land beneath the sky rail in Melbourne?
“The new section of raised tracks will make room for 2.5 kilometres of new open space. Some of the ideas being considered for the space include a dog park, playgrounds and public art space. The new open space will be almost twice the size of the MCG and three times the number of trees as there are currently in the area will be planted.”
