Could you cover this? Humans around the world drink 5.2 billion gallons of water and eat 21 billion pounds of food each day (Based on rough averages of water at .5-1 gallon (.75 gallons) x 7.5011 billion = 5.626 billion gallons of water and 7,605 metric tons of food produced per minute = 24.143 billion pounds of food per day.). However, just the *cows* around the world in our agriculture system drink 45 billion gallons of water and eat 135 billion pounds of food each day - *NINE TIMES* as much water and *SEVEN TIMES* as much food as ALL humans on planet earth -and I remind you, this is just cows, not chickens, ducks, sheep, pigs, turkeys, etc.! worldfoodclock.com/ www.dairyherd.com/dairy-resources/nutrition/Drinking-water-for-dairy-cattle-Part-1-122457414.html www.producer.com/2012/02/do-the-math-for-proper-pasture-populations/ In fact, according to the United Nations FAO, the livestock industry is the single largest user of land and water -causing massive land degradation and pollution. By any measure, it consumes a tremendous proportion of world fresh water and plant resources. www.fao.org/docrep/010/a0701e/a0701e00.HTM Even with our intensive factory farming practices, livestock STILL uses 30% of the Earth’s ENTIRE ice-free land surface, again according to the FAO. www.fao.org/docrep/010/a0701e/a0701e00.HTM Yet despite all of this, consuming animal products is completely gratuitious and we KNOW this because it is the OFFICIAL position of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics (THE LARGEST ASSOCIATION OF NUTRITION PROFESSIONALS IN THE WORLD -consisting of *over 100,000 professionals* ) that "appropriately planned vegetarian, including VEGAN, diets are HEALTHFUL, nutritionally ADEQUATE, and may provide health BENEFITS for the prevention and treatment of certain diseases. These diets are appropriate for ALL STAGES of the life cycle, including pregnancy, lactation, infancy, childhood, adolescence, older adulthood, and for athletes. Plant-based diets are *more* environmentally SUSTAINABLE than diets rich in animal products because they use FEWER NATURAL RESOURCES and are associated with MUCH LESS ENVIRONMENTAL DAMAGE. Vegetarians and VEGANS are at REDUCED RISK of certain health conditions, INCLUDING ISCHEMIC HEART DISEASE, TYPE 2 DIABETES, HYPERTENSION, CERTAIN TYPES OF CANCER, and OBESITY. Low intake of saturated fat and high intakes of vegetables, fruits, whole grains, legumes, soy products, nuts, and seeds (all rich in fiber and phytochemicals) are characteristics of vegetarian and vegan diets that produce lower total and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels and better serum glucose control. THESE FACTORS contribute to reduction of chronic disease." This paper was peer-reviewed based on data from over 120 different studies. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/27886704 Furthermore, the British Dietetic Association has officially stated that a vegan diet "supports healthy living in people of all ages’ including ‘during pregnancy and breastfeeding.’" www.bda.uk.com/resource/british-dietetic-association-confirms-well-planned-vegan-diets-can-support-healthy-living-in-people-of-all-ages.html www.vegansociety.com/sites/default/files/BDA%20and%20The%20Vegan%20Society.pdf Beyond this, the Australian Dietetic Association in it's latest nutritional guidelines likewise officially states that: "Appropriately planned vegetarian diets, including total vegetarian or VEGAN diets, are HEALTHY and nutritionally ADEQUATE. Well-planned vegetarian diets are appropriate for individuals during ALL STAGES of the lifecycle." www.eatforhealth.gov.au/guidelines www.eatforhealth.gov.au/sites/default/files/content/n55_australian_dietary_guidelines.pdf Finally, the Dieticians of Canada (who are also Secretariat for the International Confederation for Dietetic Associations [ICDA]) have similarly officially stated that "appropriately planned vegetarian diets are healthful, nutritionally adequate, and provide health benefits in the prevention and treatment of certain diseases ... This position paper reviews the current scientific data related to key nutrients for vegetarians, including protein, iron, zinc, calcium, VITAMIN D, riboflavin, VITAMIN B-12, VITAMIN A, N-3 FATTY ACIDS, and iodine. A vegetarian, including VEGAN, diet can meet current recommendations for ALL of these nutrients ... Well-planned VEGAN and other types of vegetarian diets are appropriate for ALL STAGES of the life cycle, including during pregnancy, lactation, infancy, childhood, and adolescence. Vegetarian diets offer a number of nutritional BENEFITS, including LOWER LEVELS of saturated fat, cholesterol, and animal protein as well as HIGHER LEVELS of carbohydrates, fiber, magnesium, potassium, folate, and antioxidants such as vitamins C and E and phytochemicals. Vegetarians have been reported to have LOWER body mass indices than nonvegetarians, as well as LOWER rates of death from ISCHEMIC HEART DISEASE; vegetarians also show LOWER blood cholesterol levels; LOWER blood pressure; and LOWER rates of HYPERTENSION, TYPE 2 DIABETES, and PROSTATE AND COLON CANCER ... DIETETICS PROFESSIONALS HAVE A RESPONSIBILITY TO SUPPORT and encourage those who express an interest in consuming A VEGETARIAN DIET." www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12778049/ www.dietitians.ca/About-DC.aspx Each of these are the LARGEST scientific organizations of NUTRITION and DIET in each of their respective countries --which JUST SO HAPPEN to be some of the most medically, scientifically, and technologically developed nations IN THE WORLD!

In the last three years It really came to my attention how weather patterns have changed in my hometown in SW Germany. There used to be much more precipitation during the summer months. Now we often see not a single drop for a month, the driest months being July and August. In my allotment, young apple and pear trees, but also fig trees, hazel bushes and grapes that were planted during the last years and already well rooted had to be watered regularly this summer. This used to be virtually unheard around here. You used to plant a fruit tree in fall, then maybe water it once or twice in the next summer, and it would be able to sustain itself from there on. I am afraid that restocking old forests and orchards is going to get much more difficult since young trees can't survive on their own here anymore.

One thing we need to do is move water from the ocean back inland to places we need it and if we can do that while generating clean energy we have a chance to mitigate climate change and still have a prosperous future. It is really, really hard but it is not impossible. The biggest idea I am trying to express is tunneling aqueducts from the coast, in this case the west coast of the USA inland to feed combination geothermal power and sea water desalination plants. The idea seems to be so big that no one has considered it possible but I believe it is not only possible but it is necessary. For over a century the fossil water contained in aquifers has been pumped out to feed agriculture, industry and municipal water needs. The natural water cycle cant refill fossil water deposits that were filled 10,000 years ago when the glaciers melted after the last ice age. Without refilling these aquifers there is not much of a future for the region of the United states. As a result ground levels in some areas of the San Joaquin Valley have subsided by more than 30 feet. Similar fossil water depletion is happening in other regions all around the world. TBM and tunneling technology has matured and further developments in the industry are poised to speed up the tunneling process and it's these tunnels that are the only way to move large volumes of water from the ocean inland. The water is moved inland to areas where it can be desalinated in geothermal plants producing clean water and power. In many cases the water will recharge surface reservoirs where it will be used first to make more hydro power before being released into rivers and canal systems. It's very important however to not stop tunneling at these first stops but to continue several legs until the water has traveled from the ocean under mountain ranges to interior states. Along the way water will flow down grade through tunnels and rise in geothermal loops to fill mountain top pumped hydro batteries several times before eventually recharging several major aquifers. What I am proposing is essentially reversing the flow of the Colorado River Compact. Bringing water from the coast of California first to mountaintop reservoirs then to the deserts of Nevada and Arizona and on to Utah, New Mexico, Colorado and Wyoming. This big idea looks past any individual city or states problems and looks at the whole and by using first principles identifies the actual problem and only solution. Thank you for your time, I would like the opportunity to explain in further detail and answer any questions

Please help me how you made such an excellent visuals, I need something like that for my college report

Thank you!

The earth itself is a recycling system, instead of working against nature you need to work with it. The major cause of water runoffs during a time of plenty rain is poor soil hydrology. There are many people who have proved through projects that it is possible to restore arid and deserted land back to productive and natural landscapes that retain good soil hydrology and restores water systems naturally. The problem is that our mindset is always about taking for profit and not giving back to keep the natural habitat healthy. Some farmers and conservationists minded people understand this but sadly they are in the minority.

the diverse species of native plants and nitrogen rich species play a huge role to the earth's soil and not just trees since the trees can only be relevant at their job if it weren't for amazing potential of the soil's nitrogen absorption from rain spells and it's bio diverse bacteria for all plants species to survive this is why bio diversity is so important and is where the true nutrients comes from and recycled natural dead matter wastes and rock minerals for plants is what makes a crop pop vigorously and produces for humans to consume.

At least home prices in California will be drastically reduced in the near future!

Who else is drinking water while watching this?

The giant Oglala aquifer in the central plains is also running dry. That will also put pressure on agriculture. Someone needs to offer a billion dollar prize to anyone who can find a cost effective way to desalinate sea water. By "cost effective" I mean competitive with the water run off in temperate climates. Also, the cost of disposal of waste brine has to be figured in.

Freeing access to water to market will allow the price to be dictated by supply and demand; If water is scarce, it will be more expensive, incentivizing conservation while people will innovate to produce more and save more

More trees more grass, slow water across the landscape, let it seep into the soil. Let it fill the aquifers.

I'd like to believe that we as a societies and countries facing the same huge challenge, would cooperate and implement the best possible solutions. But to be honest, we somehow cannot even convince some politicians that climate change is real. We can't shift to green energy or more sustainable process of making clothes (which also requires a lot of water) or consume less meat. We live like there's no tomorrow. And so many people simply don't care. Sad but true.

The south and south west is now in a water crisis. Very scary

Since the meat industry is the one with the largest water usage by far, we could also eat less meat...

It's gonna be difficult. On one hand the price for clean water supply is gonna have to increase so that it forces people to use it more efficiently and not waste. On the other hand, the rising cost of water will make it harder for a lot of people to attain the resource. Like, how do we enforce these changes on a resource that is so vital for our survival?? (I'm no expert and there's more variables to deal with. That's just how I see it rn)

I dont know about water bills over there but I'm paying €12 a month for a 4 person household that's one hour of min wage for such a vital resource. Increasing price will only become significant for the real offenders.

The only solution would be the profit that companies would make from the crisis. More demand and less supply would mean more money for a litter of water, which would make finding more ways to provide water more profitable and thus the supply will go up and the prices will go down. Just like when the world taught the crude oil was about to drain up, it became profitable to suck it up from the ocean.

Our agriculture system needs to change.

get this man some views.

End capitalism. Save the water.

this it a cool vid.

全世界で起きている異常気象による自然災害や自然火災、ゲリラ豪雨や気候変動を食い止めるには、全世界の政府が植林活動を行う際に、現地にショベルカーとトラクターと散水車を導入して植林活動を行うだけでなく、水源を掘り起こして大きな水場を作る事も異常気象に対抗する手段だと思う‼️

"In the year 10,836 BCE around 9% of the Earth's terrestrial biomass, on an area of some 10,000,000 square kilometres, which as big as the area of the US, burnt within several months."

Video does not talk about the lush green golf courses. That stay green year round.

People are suffering,political action is required I am afraid that might happen to me.

Plants free of water deficit events more efficiently absorb available plant nutrients enabling plants to achieve their maximum genetic potential. SWRT membranes installed below plant root systems retain water where it falls, providing continuous delivery of drought-free periods up to 3 times longer than intensely irrigated control sands without root zone water retention membranes (Guber et al, 2016).

Maybe Cali should reduce Agricultural output by 50 percent. Would that make things better?

Water usage isn't the issue; it's water waste. You can process and reuse wastewater and stop wasting clean water, so it's not how much water we use, but how we get it.

You know maybe some countries are experiencing water shortages because of oh... They're in a desert? Also water doesn't just disappear it goes against the law of conservation.

The solution is veganism .

Climate Change is making weather events more extreme. It is time to wake up and make Climate Action a priority. Individuals, politicians and corporations need to do more to dump fossil fuels and protect the environment. Insurance companies, banks, pension funds, universities and all financial institutions need to divest from fossil fuels. This will only get worse if we do not act. Register and VOTE for Climate Leaders.

How many water litres are needed to make 1 L of coca cola and how much of california water goes to coca cola?

Too many people too little fresh drinkable water,climate change and bottled water being used and sold at a profit all add to this problem

I'm totally shocked you guys didn't delete my comment because that almost never happens on climate videos, so I decided to reward you with another comment about green energy...

Hydroponics would also be a smarter use of water for agriculture
