The Earth is on the brink of a global water crisis, warns UN

the United Nations is warning that the Earth is on the brink of a global water crisis. One in four people around the world do not have access to safe drinking water.

Here's the simple of the water that was on the planet 200 million years ago, is still here.
If there is a "shortage", where did all the water go?

[coreyheisley]

Just send will smith to the Nile river, he’ll smack some water out of it, just make sure it makes a GI Jane joke first.

I hope this world is not in existence in 2050

*Forgive me for not believing nor caring what the UN, WHO, CDC, FDA etc have to say.*

*In fact, I usually believe the opposite of what they say.*

Meanwhile the U.S. is 400 billion dollars into a war we have no business in. How much clean water could that buy.

Be frightened! Next up at 11: "We're facing an air shortage by 2040 and a Rona 2.1 outbreak!" Peddle your fear elsewhere.

[tp-mhji]

I'm so scared... Fear is the plan.

The water has been like that since the beginning of time it's no different 🤣🤣

[ShawnCheriYoung]

I'm distilling snow on a wood stove right now...
And if it wasn't snowing I'd be hauling my water from 10 miles away...
Looks like they have plenty of water and wood to burn...
She didn't say she had a problem with "unsafe" drinking water; she said she was tired of having to carry it to the house...

Stopit governments' climate manipulation could resolve water deficiency in one place and flooring in another.

[hadtocheathimtobeathim]

I’m no scientist but the earth is made up of 90% water.

[randallsmerna]

Yeah, so don't use water at home... That's the message? 🙄🙄🙄

[unitedstatian]

It's amazing how almost half the worlds population still hasn't discovered fire and boiling water yet according to the UN...

[matstarcher]

Where's it all at then? Ever look at the rivers in india.. or thialand.. maybe start cleaning that cluster up first

[ortho-g]

Yes, it is. Now make sure you send them all the water they need at an inflated price. That's how you operate, YES?

[danamania]

Between the climate crisis and the water crisis, which one should I freak out about more?

[the_crusty_ledge]

I see a lot of people complaining that someone needs to fix this issue. . . while the people with the problem do nothing to fix the issue. the developed world didn't get clean drinking water because someone else stepped in a did it for us. . . we did it for ourselves. we built the water systems, we built the treatment plants, we did it.

[BooDamnHoo]

Not where I live we aren't. Wet. Even a drought last year was only drought-ish. SOME places have water crises but definitely not the PLANET.

[brutishfossil]

That's because one in four people still live like cavemen.
