When the rivers run dry
Forget about the mussels and sturgeon. Atlanta's water woes have politicians dreaming of an Endangered Suburbs Act
Andrew Leonard [2007-11-02]

  • sprawl

    this is what happens when greed rules.

    Note that the wealthy will always be able to buy water. It's everyone else who'll suffer so that the wealthy can make money on things like suburban sprawl.

    Things will get really interesting here in the West when the snow-pack begins its inevitable shrinkage due to global warming. You think Atlanta short of water is bad...what happens when Los Angeles can't get enough water? Talk about a city that shouldn't even exist. That's Los Angeles.

    time to start plans to head to Portland... a place not unlike a wet sponge, but, plenty of water there.

    Get ready, Portland. A lot more Angelenos will be heading your way one day.

    As for Atlanta? Fuck 'em. Too stupid to live. This should have been planned for 50 years ago.
