Try: WATER H₂O: The Molecule That Made Us [PBS, natch] 'Virtual Water' and graphics showing the international shipments like: Saudi Arabia's 'water interests' in Arizona (Crystal Geyser's virtually-free access to billions of gallons from er, The People's aquifers--for fun and profit). There's a lot which only current Water-scientists can tell us about: "where the Cracks are" in our deplections of aquifers all over, how many galllons it takes for a pound of tomatoes (Nethetlands is beyond all other States in having found a way to grow these:using 5%-net: of US and others' traditional means. We'll get a round tuit: when virii, Menaces, greed and Oligarchs everywheerre ... are settled. aka, Toast? That is all: add-to-Listicle? Not quite.. (here anyway) after above, Nova does [Flint] Poisoned Water. We aren't done re Water yet. (Were PBS declared Subversive by a President-for-~~LIes~~-Life next; the dis-US would have Reveal and a few other barely-funded efforts at truthiness..) It's surpassing-Weird Out There, as a quadrillion chickens come home to roost.

Our consensus was that if it came, it would be fought over access to clean drinking water. I've not moved much from that position since. bcnu, Mikem It's mourning in America again.

The Population Bomb of 1968 (Most likely read by the usual minority /in preaching to the Choir) who actually Can, Do read). And this be 'Murica: after the press ink + Attention span: no words needed. {But there's Hope, next} T'other day I asked a ~20ish lass: ~(May I ask you a question? {sure..} "Have you ever heard of 'the Weimar Republic?'" ..and this time: I got ... a Yes!

OTOH i've told self not-to accumulate Stats on this Test-query of n-years--let's just say that she was one-in-a handful or two. The life of a ~~Policeman~~ amateur-Statistician is not a very jolly one. :PS: But did we not ~All FAIL: (after all.. those..
