]]> Comment on Is water becoming ‘the new oil’? by Doug VS http://www.circleofblue.org/waternews/science-tech/is-water-becoming-%e2%80%98the-new-oil%e2%80%99/#comment-606 Doug VS Sun, 15 Jun 2008 07:10:17 +0000 http://www.circleofblue.org/waternews/?p=485#comment-606 I think the comparisons to oil are perhaps a bit misplaced, as oil, unlike water, is an option for humans to use. If we want to stop using oil, we can switch to alternatives. Water on the other hand is something we cant switch. Although the comparisons to oil are similar when one considers the future global impact of water. It will be interesting to see if countries like Brazil Russia and Canada will begin forming as the new "OPEC" Sensationalist I know, but all that far off?
