The Next world war is either gonna be for oil or drinkable water.

Overall, I think this video is rather poor. I could never figure out the message it was trying to convey. If the producers were trying to make one think that we are running out of water, that would make them very ignorant, as you can't get rid of water. Basic physics, you know.

And just to add, dams are a huge part of th environmental destruction and effects on agriculture we are seeing around the world, including the Three Gorges Dam.

[waterforpeople]

Areas of the world are running out of potable water due to pollution, privitization, glacier melt, and the effects of climate change such as erratic weather patterns which effect agriculture and rainfall. We as humans have contributed to disrupting the hydrologic cycle.

If you want to know what's going on read Blue Covenant by Maude Barlow. She's the leading expert on the state of the water shortage. Its a fantastic read.

Ya i agree. It is over population that is the cause of all this problem and our medicines and stuff keeps making us live longer. But most people think they don't have to worry about it because in the future we will be living on mars or something like that.... but what if same thing happens on mars or whatever? Obviously moving to another planet and leaving all this problem isn't the answer.

"race has nothing to do w/ it".... wake up my friend... the white man has been the cause of all evil on the Earth for the past thousands of years... once they climbed out of their holes in the ground they came from!!!! They are the cause of world wars... drought do to their evil influence of politics (This political move is not worth those African lives... etc.)!!!! Wake up you fool and realize the world around you!!!!

human over population is the #1 cause of most of the world's problems, race has nothing to do w/ it. Most people live w/ the attitude that the world ends on the day they die and few anywhere live sustainably. Bigot.
