Water withdrawals from lakes and rivers has doubled in the last 40 years. Humans now use between 40% and 50% of all available freshwater running off the land.

What's wrong with that? When the Indians uses stuff and don't waste it they get praised. When we use it, we are evil. How is using the water worse than not using it?

It's a breeding issue. IMO.

As a father, I got snipped after our second child.

"A report backed by 1,360 scientists from 95 countries" contains these and other examples of meaningless, fabricated numbers.
