And If We Had To Do It Again ?

Roman aqueducts (1x3)


:

Rome, 1st century AD, the capital of an empire that dominates Europe. Its greatest technological achievement: ACCESS To running water. The water supply system in Rome is one of the greatest wonders of Antiquity. The Roman aqueducts transported nearly 750 million liters of water per day to a city of one million people. This system still rivals the sewerage systems in large cities today. In a time of global warming, water has become a precious commodity and experts are sounding the alarm, but are our engineers living up to their Roman predecessors? And if we had to do it again, would we still be able to build the aqueducts of Rome?
