Probably a good time to push a technology that uses all of our water

Yup, it's real. Have a place - some distance from where I live (in the northeast US) that I go to and get spring water.
Went last autumn and lo, the spring was dry. First time EVER that I've seen that, and it's a place that I've known of, and gone to, to get water for well over 40 years.
Fuuuuuck.

Similar projections exist for all major continents.
The worst..so far!
its odd to be on the other side of the fence, because its the one year where it rained in California soo much, the typical california drought warnings didnt appear.
Is the world on a hundred year cycle? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dust_Bowl
