Water, Water Nowhere

Well if the US going broke isn't enough to depress you (see below), perhaps the impedning water crisis is. Water is becoming more scarce according to the International Water Management Institute's report released this week (it's World Water Week!). Yet another crisis (but an interesting one that deserves not only policymaker attention, but also average citizen attention). However, Americans would rather not think about this (and all of the other dire situations). Is this a problem? Not the water situation, I know it's a problem (although if you'd like to submit that there really is no water crisis, I'd entertain that thought). But is the apathy of the American public toward these very real crises a problem?
