Earth Has Less Water Than You Think

[trux]

This picture surprised me too. The small marble near the dry Earth represent all water on Earth, including all oceans, lakes, rivers, water vapor in the atmosphere, the ice caps, and the ground water:

Help, help! Water shortages, water shortages!!! Well what can we do? Please help me, save me!

Politician: Yes the situation is desperate! - I knew it for years btw and I've always said it! - the only thing to safe mother nature is to sell off all our public water sources to privately owned companies!

In fact you'll understand that we're in such dire straits that we also need to increase taxes, regulate people of the land, stop eating meat (accept for the special people), only eat GMO, spray the crap out of nature and us, compress everyone into small cities, pray for plagues, war and famine, sterilize our children - or better don't have them at all! - euthanise the elderly and cripples and buy CO2 credits with their pension funds and savings!!! Let the international bankers with their CFR, UN and other clubs safe the(ir) world!!! (from us useless eaters). All this and more we need to do to keep you safe off cause!
<now where was I, counting my received lobbying money I got from Goldmann Sachs?, I should be in for a raise now the people are convinced>

And now the weather..

The planet is fvcked,
it's your fault,
and it's getting worse,

Have a nice day!
