And that’s why I’ll never leave the Great Lakes region.
dont you want to live somewhere that water is geographically higher than you?
Nations must start to manage water as a global common good,
it’s been nice knowing you all
Oohh, I remember reading this 40 years ago.
Anyway…
We figured out destroying the ozone layer was probably a bad idea but wasting all the freshwater is a bridge too far I guess.
Nestle: We’ve lobbied governments around the world to
let us own all the fresh waterprotect the fresh water from nefarious actors.:(
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, my retirement plan is dying in the potable water riots
Climate change terrifies me to be honest. We have seen how under prepared we were as species for covid, this will be so much worse. While we could be doing something about it we still have people who dont believe it or are doubling down on fossil fuels and taking private jets.
😪
It more surprises and saddens me that we are less than 2 generations divorced from when we as a species were able to band together and ban CFCs to address the hole in the Ozone Layer, as well as sulphurous compounds to eliminate Acid Rain - yet we’ve flown right past ‘fuck around’ without seemingly batting an eye, and are barrelling towards ‘find out’ territory when it comes to Climate Change…
…I vote we decide on a climate landmark to establish the initiation of the global end of the world party. Anything that’s currently illegal due to longer term consequences goes into ‘fuck it!’ territory. Drugs of all kinds completely legalized; conditions that contraindicate using those drugs like pregnancy are ignored. Social standards around things like sex are dissolved (other than consent - that stays). Just nonstop hedonism, feasting, drinking, fucking, etc while supplies last.
Then when supplies run out, we all hit the big red button at the same time. Nukes. All of them. Detonated in as close a synchronization as we can get them, and our failure of species goes out in as painless as possible of an instant flash.
…I mean, it’s that or slow-burn to death anyway, we got nothing to lose.
Just try organizing a militia and you will find how oppressed we already are
The only thing that works now is indiscriminate attacks on the wealthy, it’s the only thing they won’t see coming
Where are they implying it went? Did it evaporate out into space? Was it absorbed into the earth’s crust? Or is it just becoming unpotable - and if that, how does the change in earth’s wobble that they use to make this claim imply that water has lost it’s freshness?
There are over 8 billion people on earth. People drink, wash, and shit in multiple litres of water daily. Crops require water. Livestock requires water. We slaughter several Trillion (with a T) livestock globally each year, there is A LOT of livestock. Industry requires water. Industry is trusted not to hoard, pollute or waste water. Water processing and sewage reclamation requires well funded public infrastructure. The hotter our atmosphere is, the more water vapour it will hold.
Just some ideas to get you started.

For those of us who are alive to read this … enjoy the liveable environment we have now (never worry about the planet because it will outlast us).
I feel so bad for the those who are not yet born and will grow up to inherit the shit we’ve allowed to happen.
This sucks
