Water was going to be new oil. This has yet to develop - yet is the key part. The cover of Civil Engineering magazine this month (The Global Water Crisis) asks the key question - What Will It Take? As the article pointed out, water has huge economic, social, geographical, cultural, and political implications. The language of water is starting to sound like the language of oil. In Texas and the West, wastewater might get to the oil designation sooner than tab water.
It would be interesting to see a study that looked at the national trend of waterwater reuse over the last ten years. Total number of gallons in 2004 versus 2014 that have been developed for reuse. This will be an important metric to watch.
Videos of wastewater are the new thing!!!
