Is Water The New Oil ? WaterMicronWorld,Ltd

June 12, 2010 - PRLog -- According to a number of economists, business leaders, scientists and geopolitical strategists, who argue that it's time to stop taking for granted the substance that covers 70% of the planet and makes up a similar proportion of the human body. Just as the late 20th century saw an oil shock, the early 21st century may feature a water shock, where scarcity leads to a sharp price hike on a resource that has always been plentiful and cheap.
Such a scenario could have an even bigger impact than peak oil, transforming markets, governments and ecosystems alike. The basic story: 97% of the world's water is salty. Human use of the remaining 3% has boomed, the result of industrialization and the need to produce more food to feed a growing, wealthier population.
In 1900, global water consumption totaled approximately 770 cubic kilometers, according to a 2009 report by Zurich-based consultancy Sustainable Asset Management. Today, the figure is 3,840 cubic kilometers. It is projected to grow to over 5,000 by 2025. That's well under the 9,000-12,000 cubic kilometers of annual rainfallment. Today, the figure is 3,840 cubic kilometers. It is projected to grow to over 5,000 by 2025.
That's well under the 9,000-12,000 cubic kilometers of annual rainfall that winds
up in places humans can access. But pollution, waste and inefficient delivery take a
big bite out of that figure, as does climate change, with its attendant droughts and early snowmelts.
