Water Wars ? facts and fiction.

With the world always needing more water, the Idea of water wars is not far fetched. Everytime more farm land is made into subdivisions and shopping malls, the burden of producing more food crops is on more and more producing farmers. To produce more crops requires more water, simple math. Do the research, many states get there water from other states. In many cases, water rights deals were made in some cases before some states were even states in the 1800s.
 One nightmare scenario is — a global scarcity of vital resources and the onset of extreme climate change propaganda— are already beginning to converge and in the coming decades are likely to produce a tidal wave of unrest, rebellion, competition, and  hot conflict.  Just what will this tsunami of disaster look like, but experts warn of “water wars” over contested river systems, global food riots sparked by soaring prices for life’s basics, mass migrations of climate refugees (with resulting anti-migrant violence), and the breakdown of social order or the collapse of states.  At first, such mayhem is likely to arise largely in Africa, Central Asia, and other areas of the underdeveloped South, but in time all regions of the planet will be affected.

No one can predict how much food, land, water, and energy will be lost as a result of this onslaught new world order,but the cumulative effect will undoubtedly be staggering.  In Resources Futures, Chatham House offers a particularly dire warning when it comes to the threat of diminished precipitation to rain-fed agriculture.  “By 2020,” the report says, “yields from rain-fed agriculture could be reduced by up to 50%” in some areas.

 The highest rates of loss are expected to be in Africa, where reliance on rain-fed farming is greatest, but agriculture in China, India, Pakistan, and Central Asia is also likely to be severely affected.
Heat waves, droughts, and other effects of drought will also reduce the flow of many vital rivers, diminishing water supplies for irrigation, hydro-electricity power facilities, and nuclear reactors (which need massive amounts of water for cooling purposes). 
  An expected increase in the frequency of hurricanes and typhoons during drought cycles will pose a growing threat to offshore oil rigs, coastal refineries, transmission lines, and other components of the global energy system.

Keep your water rights, they may be worth more than mineral rights one day soon.
