Although important topic - many regions already suffer from acute water shortage, at least for half of the year - global aggregate numbers don't mean so much, as large-scale inter-regional water transport isn't practical.

There's also water (and energy) embedded in food, could be reduced if people care. Anyway what's new (not this article)?
