I am not trying to promote my own site but rather I feel that the article is an easy to read introduction based on much research into the water crisis. For people uninterested in the issue, it is probably more helpful to post one encompassing link than to post 15 links. Of course if they become interested and want to do more in depth reading into a particular issue concerning the water problem, there are various other links I can put up (email: seeminglyuseless@gmail.com). I haven't heard anything about floating ice bergs into the persian gulf (i guess they'll have to helicopter it some how) but when the water evaporates, it'll just end up back to where it came from. Global warming also has a big effect on water supply although I didn't get a chance to discuss it in this article. I will probably write a follow up article concerning global warming and water related diseases. For now, I'm just trying to get the word out on this very real issue.
