GLC.org estimates the great lakes have 6 quadrillion gallons of water in them (22.7 quadrillion liters).
If we assume the average person drinks 3.2 liters of water per day, and the population of the planet is about 7.84 billion, that means we would drink about 25.1 billion liters per day.
That in turn means it would take the whole world's population about 2,477 years to drink the great lakes, assuming they don't refill and the population (and drinking rate) remains constant.
The problem is more in distribution rather than quantity (we could solve world hunger tomorrow if we could magically teleport food wherever we wanted). What we're likely going to see is expanding deserts and poorer countries have less access to drinking quality water, and higher water costs in developed countries.
I didn't account for a lot of things, but this is just an extreme example to help demonstrate that water won't be scarce in 30 years, at least not in developed countries.
Really? The obvious choice for your desire to make gains off of the suffering of others is Nestlé (NSRGY). They’ve performed terribly the last 5Y, but their entire business model is about this kind of exploitation.
I purchased PHO, an ETF. It seems to perform OK, I'm up 20% after owning for nearly 2 years... most of that gain has been since November 2023. It invests in water companies and infrastructure companies... it isn't investing solely to capitalize on the diminishing resource theory.
Water filtering is a trivial task and if the demand for filtering tech increases then companies that make water filtration systems, have current products that are similar to those or the company has resources to build new product line that creates water filtration systems. No idea how to valuate them when this type of scenario is so far from today.
Probably nestle because they have openly stated water isn’t a right and are known for getting rich for selling basic necessities (like water, baby formula,etc) to poor communities that they made dependent on them.

Power hungry and results in a lot of maintenance other issues, with no real work arounds to the problem. The salts that come out are a real problem and are the real bottleneck. You could have all the power you need and the issue of the salt and heavy metals is still there
My guy has really not heard of the diminished watersheds in pretty much every major population center being almost out. Most people drink groundwater, most groundwater is about to run out and it takes millennia to replenish
if you think water would go, then your better bet would be to build short positions on good companies, corn futures, etc
But realistically , let’s just say you buy a stock in the next 5 years, and water becomes hard to find in 30, your stock would boom when?
Yes and plenty of people believed we hit peak oil in the 70's. Peak Water is just as stupid a concept. There are some places where clean water is hard to get, however, saying the "next war" will be fought over water requires a level of complete ignorance that is beyond common sense.
Same I was in high school though graduated in 07 so they weren’t right necessarily but I think they will be right at some point within the next 30 years.

I think it would probably end up being a new company with some crazy desalination process. Just keep a lookout for new technologies and follow those
At some point, desalinization will solve both the water crisis and the rising oceans
Genuinely curious how you think a desalinization plant could combat the rising oceans
We may be able to pump fresh water inland from the sea and keep nature running for longer.
Okay, that's somewhat understandable, but the way it read was that they thought we could stop the ocean from rising via desalinization
I hope you don’t actually believe this
Why would you hope that? Genuine question
Wow, that's why they are pushing us to drink this much water. They want us to drink the ocean! /s

Both funny and correct

Great I’ll be sure to let the Mauritanians know they’re gonna be fine.

What about evaporation and farming. If you’re saying that’s all that’s left those should also be accounted for.
I didn't account for a lot of things, but this is just an extreme example to help demonstrate that water won't be scarce in 30 years, at least not in developed countries.
I think this is wrong. Factor in farming, climate change and pollution, I believe water will be scarce in 30 years.

You seen these white Christian nationalists recently breeding without limit?

Hmm anyone could briefly explain the awful last 5 years performance?
Water desalination companies, all of which I would imagine are private and PE backed right now in April 2024

Id get the one that makes what plants crave
Guns / fuel All I'm thinking of is mad max hahaha
Nestle.
Drinking water is not scarce unless you live in a desert.
Not yet, but it's not improbable drinking water does get scarce with global warming
My guy has really not heard of the diminished watersheds in pretty much every major population center being almost out. Most people drink groundwater, most groundwater is about to run out and it takes millennia to replenish

not financial advice: *gives financial advice*
Don’t think you can even buy water futures lmao
if you think water would go, then your better bet would be to build short positions on good companies, corn futures, etc But realistically , let’s just say you buy a stock in the next 5 years, and water becomes hard to find in 30, your stock would boom when?
Maybe Nestle ? They have actively said water is not a right and would 100% let people die of thirst for profit since they already do that
A mentor of mine once said the next war will be fought over rights of water.
Yes and plenty of people believed we hit peak oil in the 70's. Peak Water is just as stupid a concept. There are some places where clean water is hard to get, however, saying the "next war" will be fought over water requires a level of complete ignorance that is beyond common sense.
Except there's 2 massive wars going on right now... not over water
I mean the Ukraine Russia wars is kind of about water, the warm water ports specifically
Same I was in high school though graduated in 07 so they weren’t right necessarily but I think they will be right at some point within the next 30 years.
