Have you seen in the youtube the "The Letter From the Future"?
Its just telling what will happen in the year 2070... If you can see, it is very alarming to see no more water by the year 2070.
so, what do you think we can do to help conserve, preserve and protect not only the water but also our environment?
It is very interesting (for me:p)to have a discussion about this matter.
Thanks a lot......

Inevitably and undoubtedly we would have a shortage of water,and subsequently a crisis instability for all the countries.So alarming it is that we are transfixed momentarily.I know that your school has hitherto teach you how to conserve,preserve and protect not only the water but also our environment,thereby telling the tips is a plethora.

And even I tell how to,humanity still reject and indolent.They would continue to do those adverse things-building more factories,more shopping centers,more times of chopping down tress and the list is ceaseless.The weather is sweltering and berserk and of course you cannot bear it any longer,you covet to go in an air-conditional room.That is also what I love.

The discernible thing is that we love a significant life.Thereby that's why we invented so many advanced things.What is that for?It is foolhardy.Perceive of Shakespeare,Charles Dickens,etc,they are sublimely intellectual,weren't they?At their times,they don't have what we have now.They were even more intelligent than we are.Tell me who can write a standard akin to Shakespeare's standard?No one could beat Shakespeare.Thereby advancing in the world is unproductive,it's just for comfort.

Yes, you're right. Even one of my students told me that he doesn't care what will happen to the future. What is important to him is only today. :(

Could well be completely wrong. In fact, if it's on Youtube, it almost certainly is!

Given the enormous difficulty with which global warming predictions are made and the number of unknown outcomes, it's probably something not worth worrying about just yet, although the water shortage in Asia/Africa is nothing new. It will be devastating in the next few years, not 60.

Couple of things come into it. If global warming continues as expected, one of the results which is little publicised - maybe because it's so obvious - is that there will be hugely increased rainfall in many parts of the world. Water evaporates with heat, so if the planet is a degree or two warmer, then more water will evaporate and more rain will fall. Where that will be is anybody's guess.

There's a big difference between "no more water" and "no more drinkable water". There's pretty much always been the same amount of water... It gets recycled constantly.
