What the NSA is positioning the chess pieces for. Zaire and especially South Africa could find itself invaded by a Chinese armada. The US and Europe might not have the will to counter this. CIA agent Thomas Cromwell(Steve Bannon) in a recent speech warned that China will invade Africa, displacing everybody towards Europe. This will weaken Europe so much that the US won't have the resolve to counter China.

China has outright annexed disputed land and islands in a test run to see how Europe and the US will react when they eventually annex South Africa. With the complicity of the Chinese government, industrial chemicals are mass produced and shipped to Mexico for the manufacture of narcotics. Trump is signalling to China that the US is getting concerned.

In China, plagued by drought, the North China Plain aquifer sustains 117 million people in Beijing and surrounding areas. […] aquifers in several of the world’s most productive, heavily populated regions are being drawn down at precipitous rates. "NASA satellites, monitoring changes in Earth’s gravitational pull, found that 21 of the world’s 37 largest aquifers have passed the sustainable tipping point.”

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3fKSRW2GZ6Q The central part of the United States has often been called the bread basket of the U.S., but it's really the bread basket of the world. In this video montage, listen to University of Nebraska-Lincoln groundwater geologist Jesse Korus and UNL geologist Matt Joeckel explain that growing plentiful crops relies on the water in the High Plains Aquifer, that underlies nearly all of Nebraska. Strategic Discussions for Nebraska provides an opportunity for the University of Nebraska-Lincoln College of Journalism and Mass Communications to interact with our fellow Nebraskans about topics vital to the state's growth and quality of life. We also teach students research and reporting skills and conduct research projects in Nebraska communities to promote more effective communication. www.unl.edu/sdn

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RjsThobgq7Q In places around the world, supplies of groundwater are rapidly vanishing. As aquifers decline and wells begin to go dry, people are being forced to confront a growing crisis. Much of the planet relies on groundwater. And in places around the world – from the United States to Asia, the Middle East, Africa and Latin America – so much water is pumped from the ground that aquifers are being rapidly depleted and wells are going dry. Groundwater is disappearing beneath cornfields in Kansas, rice paddies in India, asparagus farms in Peru and orange groves in Morocco. As these critical water reserves are pumped beyond their limits, the threats are mounting for people who depend on aquifers to supply agriculture, sustain economies and provide drinking water. In some areas, fields have already turned to dust and farmers are struggling. Climate change is projected to increase the stresses on water supplies, and heated disputes are erupting in places where those with deep wells can keep pumping and leave others with dry wells.

Even as satellite measurements have revealed the problem’s severity on a global scale, many regions have failed to adequately address the problem. Aquifers largely remain unmanaged and unregulated, and water that seeped underground over tens of thousands of years is being gradually used up. In this documentary, USA TODAY and The Desert Sun investigate the consequences of this emerging crisis in several of the world’s hotspots of groundwater depletion. These are stories about people on four continents confronting questions of how to safeguard their aquifers for the future – and in some cases, how to cope as the water runs out.

Now Saudi companies are competing with farmers in the two states for limited water supplies in the region. The parent company of Saudi Arabia’s largest dairy supplier has acquired more than 4,000 acres of farmland in California over the past two years to grow alfalfa that is sent back to Saudi Arabia. For more on this, earth system and water scientist James Famiglietti, joins ‘News With Ed.

Lithium
https://www.mining-technology.com/features/lithiums-water-problem/ (https://archive.is/wip/xVL2h) ithium mining has become a boom industry as more and more of the metal is needed in electric car batteries. Yet despite being lauded as key material for a renewables revolution, it too has a dark side. Blamed for speeding up desertification around the salt lakes of Latin America’s ‘lithium triangle’, the evaporation techniques used in mining lithium are causing concern. So does lithium have a water problem, and what is being done
