I hope my kids get a full, long life before the water wars begin. I do my part where I can, but I’ll never have the footprint that some big billion dollar corporation can affect. The oligarchy and their absolute zero interest in preventing a climate disaster has fucked us all.

The billionaires are busy putting up ads and paying for articles that say it's the fault of the person who can barely afford to live.

My wife and I dont have kids. At this point I'm hoping she and I are able to live a long and full life. Only so much we can do as far as adapting to what may happen when we already have debts and are stuck renting.

Im pretty sure we are going to see to much water rather than not enough.

He means drinking water

I don't see that as an issue either except locally if we don't do anything like rain catch to get it. Its really more farms getting to little then to much then to little. The amount humans need to drink pale in comparison to what we need for the food we consume.

Okay he means irrigation water

ok sure but then water wars are not the best way of saying it. Water may be the impetus but its not like mad max fighting over water and transporting it back home. It will be basic land wars at that point like in ukraine with russia (which ironically does not need land or water)
