Are we The New Atlantis?

Are we the new Atlantis?
High tech civilisation ignoring the sea rising? 

No sane civilisation poisons its own water supplies.  

The biggest disgrace to the human race is the Billions of people without clean freshwater http://water.org/water-crisis/water-facts/water/

It involves the ability to truck or pipeline water away from its natural source and cycle.
How to turn a cheap public commons good such as clean drinking water into an expensive oligopoly commodity.
It's a bit like why there are no decent bike lanes to force people in to cars or risk personal injury.
There are about 5 major multinationals involved in water privatisation.    If they make tap water rancid with risk of toxicity then they can charge more for cleaning it.     Whoever owns the purification plant can start making massive profits if the only alternative is toxic algae ridden putrid slime with radioactive heavy metals that sets on fire.
Access to drinkable water is going to be increasingly important.  
In England a few years ago hosepipe bans in the summer were common with msm going on about drought and the lack of water crisis.   It was always a water management crisis.   Lack of reservoirs which have been made into houses, building on top of flood plains and drainage.  
I particularly remember the last hose pipe ban whilst we had a deluge of water non stop for months that was causing flooding, I used to joke with people "funny drought were having" as the rain poured and poured on our heads.   The water companies should be ashamed of their incompetence. But they are all owned by foreign investment hedge funds and are too busy counting their dividends.
People collecting their own water to do whatever is so much less than the industrial scale abuse of water in fracking which is blasted into the ground with 10 to 50 percent lost for generations from the water cycle.  
To go around talking about drought and at the same time urging fracking is completely irresponsible nonsense.   I predict usa invading countries to corporatise pure water in the future as they increasingly frack their own away into toxic algae ridden sludge.
When they banned collecting rain Water in Bolivia / Ecuador they got a revolution...
