We now know that less than 3% of the world water supply is fresh water, since 97% is salt water. Much of that is frozen or out of our reach. Scientists claim our drinking water supply is closer to 1% of the entire water on the planet.
Today, the Nile, Colorado, and Yellow Rivers no longer flow to the ocean. The longest river in the world (the Nile) can no longer find its way to the ocean! And yet, we continue as if all is well with our water supply. Where creeks and streams once ran full of life, there are now only dried veins stitched into the Earth's flesh

Well done article. Thank you for posting it. By 2050 2/3 s of this world will be in some sort of water stress. It is simply unsustainable in light of waste, pollution, climate change and population. At this rate we will surely see a reckoning regarding our global water supply. We are polluting rivers beyond usefulness while more evaportates thus effecting the hydrologic cycle. I fear it is going to take a certain consciousness on the part of humanity as a whole to see just what we are doing.
