RE: Geology and Civilization Part 2: Not a Drop to Drink
First, I loved your intro:
While quite a few resources are essential for the maintenance of our civilization, water is unquestionably the most important.
All over the world, there are serious water challenges. And without water, life as we know it would be impossible.
I read about the Cape Town's situation in the news and on CNN. It's a serious thing. But Cape Isn't the worst case out there.
Did I read read each person there is limited to 50L of water/day? That's a whole lot. There are communities in Nigeria where each resident doesn't even have access to 10L of water/day.
All of these mean one thing: We must do more.
Conserve more. Save more. Recycle more.
I definitely neglected discussing regions that already face water insecurity in favor of areas that are potentially facing water insecurity- which is definitely pretty consistent throughout the public discourse about the issue.
And yeah, I'm 100% behind you on what we've got to do.
