A report issued in October on water risk by environmental research and sustainability group Ceres and another study from the Natural Resources Defense Council were analyzed by 24/7 Wall Street which identified ten major cities at high risk of a water shortage. Dateline Zero notes that the report issues a warning that, beginning in 2012, at least 10 major cities will begin having crippling water shortages.
Also, there is another list of 7 major cities about to sink. Bangkok, Thailand is on the list, and could be under water sometime in the next decade.
I suspect that the 2012 phenomena is about a transition process (as opposed to things happening all at once) ... but wow. Major cities going underwater while other begin to dry up! That's quite a transition.
