I don’t agree with the assumption that we must have economic growth or population growth and therefore we must need more water. This is the fundamental flaw in this projection. We can’t accept continual growth or consumption, this is the mantra of corporations trying to satisfy shareholders and thinking very one dimensionally. Growth does not equal prosperity or happiness. The biggest change that I think needs to happen to secure water supplies is to move from conventional to regenerative agriculture and fix the broken water cycle. The idea that we prospect for more water resources is ludicrous and no different from the idea that we prospect for more fossil fuels. Let’s be honest about this.
