"We" as in we in Alberta don't have an abundance of water. If the fever dreams of the perpetual population growth crowd here continue, we will be in exactly the same situation. "we" as in Canada has water, but not always where it's needed.

I don't think many people are aware that this is a when, not if scenario for many mega cities.

It's really bad. There are about 16 million people in the region that could be forced to relocate & there isn't anywhere for them to go even if it was technically possible (which it isn't). Larger picture than this is that there are several mega cities like this one that are going to face this.

Water zero-day events are one of those situations with a massive amount of non linear risks.

Already widespread reports of unplanned outages happening. That's not good.

Credible reports that they could have a zero day event in 2-4 weeks. Jezus.

Hypocrisy is far harder to deal with than denial.

One recent example, but this kind of thing goes back decades & is the primary reason that there hasn't been any real movement on climate change globally.

And as the #4 or #5 supplier on the planet that hypocrisy is significant.

Canada isn’t simply responding to global demand, it’s investing political capital to make sure that demand doesn’t go away.

undermine any efforts at a transition in developing nations. It's a is a moral outsourcing loop. Fossil-fuel companies engineer that ongoing “need.” It collapses the difference between being caught in a system and sustaining one.
