The “Blue Revolution”: how to overcome the emerging global water crisis that will lead to food crises, unrest, and uncontrolled mass migration
Lack of water for growing food will be one of the 21st century’s most critical issues. If we don’t change how we manage water, the future will consist of increasingly frequent food crises, social and political unrest, and potential mass migrations out of areas most severely affected. We need to consider a “Blue Revolution.”
