We have seen early examples brewing, for example the Ethiopian dam.

We are very fortunate to live near the Great Lakes, the largest natural freshwater system. Wild that PA continues to pollute its own water at a breakneck pace.

As a side note - my property is serviced by a spring. Probably one of the last in the country where the only water supply is a spring and cistern system, fully gravity fed. We had a drought and water ran out for a week.

Holy shit was it awful. Toilet can’t flush. No showers. No cooking no washing hands no filling a glass, no wetting a paper towel to clean something… literally everything involves water. It was one of the most miserable weeks of my life
