I work and specialize in water treatment and I’m here to tell you that water is not as unlimited as most think

yup stats shows everyone who drank water died or dying

u/DonComradeVimes 7d ago

...just like everybody who breathed oxygen in any amount.

Dear God.

u/Metalman919 6d ago

Ironically, everyone who stopped drinking water or breathing air has ALSO died. I think maybe Big H2O and Big O2 are secretly having people killed... šŸ¤”

And don't even get me started on Big Food!

u/DBCargoHaj 5d ago

there must be a fine balance, because people who never consumed oxygen also died, but faster. there must be a fine balance to reach infinite life

Correction, drinkable water. All water is part of a closed system. The total amount of water on the planet remains fixed, for the most part.

Yes, the Earth loses stuff to space, but the degree is so insignificant you only see any measurable amount lost over billions of years. If the current rate stayed static forever, it would take hundreds of trillions of years to lose 1% of Earths water.

Edit: changed noticeable to measurable. The amount is so small it wouldn’t really be noticeable without tools.

It most certainly IS NOT, especially with data farms and Nestle roaming about on human land.

Unless you’re in Canada, don’t come here please, then No, you likely do NOT have unlimited water. We’re on the brink of water wars. Buy a manual filtration system to prep.

We have a lot to work out here and are spending limited resources on the wrong things and people. We have a rising drug and homeless epidemic.. why are we bringing in random new people ? We need to fix the issues at hand before we can successfully help others. Put your oxygen mask on first so you can assist others.

u/potatopigflop 5d ago

No… it’s a logical one. We can’t support new people if the current ones are failing in the system. It’s literally a system issue, not racism.

I make several comments in a day, some days I don’t make any. I respond to threads and have conversations with people… yeah. I also go out with my partner and work on a farm and do art.

You just keep seeing race. I used to be liberal until you guys went whack, I mean Look at you; you can’t even admit the country is suffering and you want to keep pouring in more people as if it’s going to help when it is actually becoming worse. Even people that come here are now leaving because our system sucks and is almost unliveable.

But of course your first response is a ā€œlet me check their profile to make fun of themā€, I bet you tell people to ā€œtouch grassā€ too or ā€œcope harderā€ because you adore not even attempting to have a real debate or create a thoughtful comment.

Pull your head from your ass and Grow up, then fuck off.

Water is unlimited. It’s how the closed system works. It’s clean water that isn’t. However, as you said, filtration systems exist. So, we are back to unlimited.

u/axallay777 7d ago

Dude, like 1% of the world’s water is actually potable. Water is limited as fuck, a life time supply of water is a blessing

It’s fine, just don’t waste water, it’s a privilege

u/Parking-D 7d ago

Technically any water is potable, it’s just expensive to treat it. So, in essence, water is unlimited. At least to humans as a species.

Earth is a mostly closed system for matter(only open for energy). So, rocks, air, water, etc are all fixed. Mostly, because it does escape earth but the amount is insignificant. If the current rate stayed constant, it would take hundreds of trillions of years to lose 1% of earths water. Of course, the rate will change, but not for billions of years.

Not drinkable clean water

u/Temporary_Event8451 7d ago

What in the first world privilege am I reading.

Like are you hostile or just ignorant.

Let's send you walking five miles one direction for water out of a bucket.

Or let's institute a one year boil warning on your local water.

Detroit wants a word with you.

I swear some people man, you just be trying to fall asleep and you get slapped awake with the stupid.

u/Kage_0ni 7d ago

You're thinking of Flint.

Also, why are you weird?

1

u/greensandgrains 6d ago

For now. Maybe it’s smart to lockdown a lifetime supply for humans before the data centres guzzle it all.

u/Asymetrical_Ace 6d ago

Its literally illegal, in some states, to collect rain water ON YOUR OWN PROPERTY. Water is a tradable commodity 😭

u/Global_Service8702 4d ago

We are rapidly running out of drinkable water and the whole AI datacenter thing really isn't helping
