Can you provide an example of a civiliztion that does not rely on irrigation?

Nobody knows the timescale for [forward-looking climate] events,
It's not reported by these people. Only those already extinct.
Events within a human lifespan would probably be a better metric than 'contemporary.'
Although some climatologists are pretty amazed at the non-linear amplifications taking place.
We're watching Putin. Beijing is watching us. How we behave, I suppose will impact how China behaves.
Craters are an option. A bad day.
