UN Report Warns Of A Looming Global Water Crisis

 

UN News: Climate change, population increase fuel looming water crisis: 

WMO Improved water management, monitoring and forecasting are needed in the face of a looming global water crisis, the UN World Meteorological Organization (WMO) and partners said in a report published on Tuesday. 

The warning comes as floods, droughts and other water-related hazards increase due to climate change, while the number of people experiencing “water stress” continues to rise amid population growth and dwindling availability. 

In 2018, some 3.6 billion people globally had inadequate access to water for one month per year, which is expected to surpass five billion by 2050. 

“Increasing temperatures are resulting in global and regional precipitation changes, leading to shifts in rainfall patterns and agricultural seasons, with a major impact on food security and human health and well-being,” said Petteri Taalas, the WMO Secretary-General.

There was this O5. He lived in Michigan, because of trends he saw like this one.

Me, I think there are no water shortages just shitty governments. Maybe it is I had to get signed off on how to operated a evaporation system for water desalinization. The key point is affordable energy.

Fresh water is not problem with affordable energy. Otherwise, there is a problem.

1) The Leftist playbook is to whine there are to many people in a country and we should cut back having children or have no children and then turn around and double the population with immigration.

2) The Leftist playbook is to whine there we use too much energy and that we need to cut back The Leftist playbook is to whine there These new immigrants are going to use less than the current population?

3) The Leftist playbook is to whine we must conserve water and then turn around and double the population with immigration. Immigrants are going to use less water than the current population?

Leftists/Liberals/Democrats are FUCKheads!
