I remember someplace I heard that the oil companies are pumping something like 10 galons of fresh-water into the oil wells for every 1 gal of petrolium that they take up. So they might run out of fresh water before they run out of oil. (and to think they could be pumping sea water instead. but they prefer to use fresh watter.)
Oil we can find ways to live without, fresh-water on the other hand is necessary for life to exist.
I see big problems comming in the future.
I guess we are cursed to 'Live in interesting times'.
Cheers!
