who is #1: Yeah I love the video, made me tear up :P Good song too! I'm going to be doing things differently in the coming year that's for sure. I had no idea about that aquifer, that's actually really scary too...especially since my new home base isn't so far from the old one ha ha.
Close to where I am now they were proposing to put a landfill on the only rising aquifer in the area....
*facepalm*

Some prominent wealthy people have been investing in farmland for several years now. Because there has been a worldwide food shortage. If i recall correctly, in 8 of the last 10 years the world's grain crops have not been enough to meet effective demand.
And of course once we stop fighting over oil we will be fighting over water. One huge problem in America is that our midwest once was the bread basket of the world, but that's only been possible because (see map)

they've been pumping water from a source which is ancient and may never refill itself. Already agricultural towns are becoming ghost towns because they pumped the water from a shallow place and the water level has dropped below where they can get at it.
And about 30 years from now, wars will be fought over sources of phosphates, which are necessary to grow food.
Right now, storable food is a great futures investment. Prices are already rising, but not as much as they should, because producers have been absorbing costs and playing little tricks like keeping the price the same while reducing the 16 oz box to 14.5 oz of contents, to keep the price per unit the same.
But people are adapting and there is a cultural revolution going on in America which will not be televised. Veggie gardens are springing up all over America, people are getting prosecuted for growing veggies in their front yard, and you will love this video:
