drain groundwater is really bad idea when the groundwater recharging rate is slower than draining rate. which means your land will dry out. for worst, your land will sink along with buildings nearby collapsing. talking from the point of civil engineering's geotechnical engineering.

You are correct. And since the area is close to the sea, at some point salt water will begin to infiltrate the aquifer.

They should invest more on water recycling and desalinaisation than investing their billions on buying more and modern wepons.

[@riverlady982]

They are doing that to the Great Lakes from Michigan too. Water bottle companies are a double threat in my opinion one is redistribution on a massive scale for exorbitant prices and the other is the plastic problem they exasperate. There are companies wanting to build infrastructure to send the Great Lakes water to many states far away and I can't see the ecosystem surviving it. It would create problems bigger than our country has ever seen. I don't believe our problems are anywhere near some of the countries they're showing here but if we mess to much with natural resources it could be. As is we are just managing to keep invasive species of fish from the Mississippi, caused by fish farming, from invading our lakes and causing a meltdown of natural species. We already have the invasive Snakehead fish and invasive Zebra Muscles brought in by sea ships causing problems.

This is another great documentary. Those countries which are on this documentary were in that place for thousands of years. There was no complication based on water. What makes the case of water complicated today? 1. Those water scarce countries are among the major countries that waste water. 2. Politics and a feeling of controlling a source of the water is the other major reason. 3. Those downstream countries doesn't care to for upstream countries. At list they should compensate economically for the resources they use.

None of your answers to your own question has any logic. A very simple explanation of why 1000 of years we didn't have this problem but now we have, simply boils down to 2 realistic reasons: 1.

Water getting dried up of climatic change, which is again is a consequence of growing human population necessities.

Ps, there is only so much water, most of it 'earth uses' as coolant but if we all start extracting it from saltwater what do those engineers think will happen to the allready salinating seas? Is relocating the problem's epicentre the only 'solution' we can come up with?

It's only going to get worse btw also you couldn't have put it more perfectly sadly I don't see any change in our ways.. which is sad because this is completely unsustainable the fact that something hasn't been done already is a clear sign that it will not change until it is too late... with water crisis comes climate crisis, migration crisis, crop crisis, crime crisis, and all of the other crises I failed to mention....

@@virgulflotant you do realize if you distribute money equally to everyone that that causes inflation? The value of a dollar is less than a dollar. That leads to government dependency.

How about this for a scary thought. @ 12:45 of the video "...Lack of ground water isn't Syria's only water problem. It's major rivers the Tigris and Euphrates are beginning to dry up." Now to quote from the King James Holy Bible: 12 And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared. Revelation 16:12 Now for those that will be quick to write this off consider this... The Euphrates has never dried up in it's history...until recently.

[@rosomackus69]

Entire problem could be solved by sterilization of Africa, India and Middle East (aside from Israel). But sadly, humanity is not yet mature enough to have this conversation. Nature eliminates weaker, more primitive species. It is only normal and natural that most developed, wealthy and evolved nations should survive. However, humanity will continue to be infantile, idealistic and be surprised at its own demise. Play stupid games - every life matters, win stupid prizes - fall of mankind.

[@Dermetsu]

Seems the world governments better start investing in water desalination before it's too late for us all.

[@mickheaton4609]

The biggest issue with desalinization is the energy consumption. Once we get away from fossil fuels the environmental impact will drastically decrease and it will be much more viable than it is currently.

Water is life

[@Maddog165]

Everyone obviously needs water to sustain their life, I have been born and raised about a mile from Lake Michigan and I have 0% chance that I will ever move away from here, the Great Lakes are 99% of the worlds fresh water (minus what is locked in ice in glaciers and snow pack). From my perspective I think the southwest of the USA deserves what they’re dealing with, why are they growing almonds in a desert? It takes 1 gallon to produce 1 almond and there’s tens of thousands of acres of almond growers. I could continue on and on. It’s simply idiotic!! But I do feel quite bad for the people in countries that are less prosperous and can’t afford to have their infrastructure amended to have fresh water access.
