now imagine what happens when the country with the highest poulation on earth runs out of water. nearly 1,4 billion people have the choice to die or try to get into other countries where there is still water.

how do you want to deal with that?
nuke them?
india is a nuclear power.

what we are seeing today is just the beginning.
if we do not learn to deal with that somehow - if we do not learn to live in peace together - it is the end of the human race.
What do you want the EU to say: "wit schaffen das" and get millions of people in? How long will that stand without civil war and shortage of everything? Or do we just let in some rich Indians?

How i would deal with that:

1 - say the must stop producing more than 1 child, like the chinese 1 child policy. If someone wants more children, they can buy a certificate from me that i won't have children, so they can compensate.

2 - Say that if they are able to spent billions on nuclear weapons they better use it to get drinking water from seawater. With 1,4 billion people the sealevel will drop, so another problem solved. It could be just as simpel by boiling ocean water.

3 - sent condoms sterilisation equipment, and scaring that if they have more children due to the CO2 impact that the world will be destroyed by 50 meter high waves.

4 - Not saying to them "wir schaffen das" and sent boats to pick them up.

5 - split the big cities in smaller cities that are more widespread.

6 - say that they must stop putting all the waste in the rivers and make good irrigation systems.

7 - say that if they keep voting corrupt politicians they will die of thirst.

8 - sell them Heineken


"India's water crisis is often attributed to lack of government planning, increased corporate privatization, industrial and human waste and government corruption. In addition, water scarcity in India is expected to worsen as the overall population is expected to increase to 1.6 billion by year 2050."
