Every time I read water is going to become scarce I’m required to ask, where do you think it will go?
I myself am convinced water management will become a much larger (already huge) problem, along with erosion and flooding, but water is only going to become scarce if we pollute the shit out of where water accumulates. We’re going to have much more violent storms, and much higher levels of rainfall because when the water evaporates from higher ocean temperatures it’s going to have to come down somewhere, but I don’t know where water scarcity comes into the forecast, maybe you can tell me?
Here in brazil, home of the largest rainforest in the world, dry spells have become more common and they last longer and longer. We are the country with the largest fresh water reserves in the world and we had to ration water a few years ago. Global warming fucks with the water cycles, ocean levels rising mean that more water is being ‘stored’ as salt water, which is undrinkable and expensive to filter.
