All those fucking lefty Californicators will migrate to the good areas and ruin them with their lefty politics.

You can't really run away from a water shortage.

Wherever the masses run to, they will create new water shortages.

..until all that remains is undrinkable water that has been polluted with chemicals and plastics and garbage.

Here's a bigger problem, in my opinion.

The Ogallala aquifer has dropped 16 feet in the past 65 years.

i am watching some youtube vid's about the ogalla aquifer.. this water shortage issue is so large that few people even recognize it as a problem. i watched a few videos a while back that talk about the bottled water companies going in and depleting water reservoirs.

there are water shortages worldwide that are becoming worse as time goes on.

i watched one video about a cattle processing plant in texas that had to close it's doors because of lack of water.

i think that i watched a video in india(i think) where rural families had water wells that already had dangerously low levels of water.. and then some kind of soda bottling company came in and sucked down the water level so low that these families could not get water from their water well.

for life to exist, we need air and water and food, at the most basic level.

i remember when i was praying with muslims, i learned one lesson where some entity(i forget who or what he is) and he will ask you if you still have water to drink.. people answer him and say that they still have water to drink.. and he will say "just wait".. and then he will ask them, "do you still have food to eat"? they answer saying that they still have food to eat... and he will say "just wait"..

islam teaches that in the last days that there will be no water to drink and there will be no food to eat.

in the not so distant future, the rich will have water and food, and the poor will not have food or water.

also, our oceans are polluted with massive amounts of plastics.. we could end up with a situation where the levels of chemicals in the water might turn these plastics into a gel, which would kill everything in the oceans.

I think the solution will be a combination of man-made recycling efforts (water is mostly naturally recycled now.....we drink water molecules the dinosaurs peed out, lol), de-desalinization plants, and piping clean water from the coastal regions inland. It has to get bad enough for people to make enough money to make it happen.

Speaking of the plastics in the oceans, there is progress on using specific bacteria that feed on and break the plastics down.

sadly, you are mistaken. for the previous hundred years(approx), we have been putting toxic chemicals into our water supplies which will permanently poison our water.

we pour toxic chemicals down our toilets. some pour motor oil into them. oven cleaners. etc. from each and every home in the world.

go ahead and pour some toilet bowl cleaner containing acids into a glass of water and then show me how you remove those chemicals from that glass of water.

the environment is past the point of no return, and it is my theory that this is why we are locked down.. because the governments have become aware that unless we eliminate the majority of this world's masses, then we will all die.

We can solve anything we put our efforts towards. How that happens is another story.
