A lot of libs complain about soda companies and how much water they use up from whatever area their factories are, to produce their soft drinks.
I do wonder the effects of water removal from a regional area by the production of all drinks, bottled water, soda, etc... Its hard not to argue when you take millions or billions or perhaps even trillions of gallons of water a year out of one local area to ship it somewhere else, that it doesn’t have long term impacts.
Its one thing if the water remains in the general watershed region that it is taken from, its another if its taken somewhere far outside of it.
That’s not liberalism though, that’s just basic understanding of how it all works. Not to mention the possible impacts downstream if you are taking water from a flowing supply.
What the soviets did to the Ural Sea is an example of what happens when you start removing or diverting water from natural flows in large amounts.
Not anti capitalism, but certainly can see that in particular locations removal of large amounts of water for various purposes can have real long term negative impacts that are not considered or understood.
