Quantifying all the worlds fresh water based on the world's population is a pretty retard take on statistics.

This kind of data about access to fresh and potable water should be stated regionally.

Likely to be another excuse for climate refugees to flood in and ruin Western countries.

Same with the population "boom" that is a lie. Most of the planet doesn't have population growth. Most of Europe is declining, China, Japan, Thailand, South Korea etc are heading towards a population cliff. Even south America is starting to peak in terms of population.

Africa and the Middle East are having extreme and completely unsustainable population growth while most of the world is declining.

You can thank Mr. Borlaug for that.

For Borlaug, the rapid increase in yields suggested that there was still hope for higher food production throughout sub-Saharan Africa,[32] despite lingering questions about population sustainability and the absence of long-term studies in Africa.
