I'm the founder of DBSnapper - if you're interested in learning more, get in touch at [email protected]

It's closed-source / proprietary at the moment, but I'm highly considering opening parts / all of it up as a golang library at a minimum, or do a free/pro version to support development. Any thoughts, suggestions?
I have a prelease build (v2.0.0-alpha) available at https://github.com/dbsnapper/dbsnapper/releases
And I'm updating the documentation for v2.0.0 in real-time https://docs.dbsnapper.com. The new configuration is there, but I have some work to do adding docs for the new features.
Works with Mac and Linux (Windows soon)
If you're interested in giving the alpha a try, I'd love feedback and can walk you through any issues you might encounter.

Now I'm no hydrologist, and haven't researched this idea deeply yet, so don't know second and third order effects (i.e. brine disposal mentioned above, and of course the economics of such a venture.) It seems at some point our collective hands may be forced and we may have to do something that doesn't make a profit, yet sustains humanity as a going concern.
Finally, the fact that we haven't "terraformed" in this fashion drought-stricken places like Africa or elsewhere is a pity. But yes, economics, profit, geopolitics, power struggles, I get it.
