How come every time a city official speaks, they have a big smile on their face and talk like Mr. Rogers?? Nobody without water for 2 days is feeling chipper! Questions aren't addressed (toilets!). Communication has been poor and lacks serious tone. Water dist. goes FAST.

@CityRichmondVA Why did this event take place? How about offering some answers as to why you guys were not prepared/did not have contingency plans in place beyond offering bottled water pick up areas?

How do I get on this list? Where are the distribution sites? This city really sucks at communicating important details. Glad you feel better though bc you made a silly video with literally ZERO information.

The Next War Won’t Be Over Oil. It’ll Be Over Water. Water wars are no longer a warning. They’re a reality. From tribal disputes to terrorism, water is now both a target and a trigger—impacting geopolitics, economies, and national security. Between 2010 and so far, the world saw over 1,000 violent incidents tied to water access, infrastructure, or scarcity. Where did water turn violent? Here’s a look at countries that witnessed major water-linked violence: 🚰 India & Pakistan – Ongoing tension over the Indus Waters Treaty, river control, and upstream dams 🚰 Yemen – Armed groups destroyed water infrastructure to control civilian movement 🚰 Iraq & Syria – ISIS used water as a weapon by flooding lands and cutting supplies 🚰 South Sudan – Rival groups clashed over boreholes and riverbanks during civil war 🚰 Mexico – Farmers vs. federal government over treaty water release to the U.S. 🚰 Ethiopia, Egypt & Sudan – Standoff over the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD) and Nile control 🚰 Somalia – Militant and tribal violence over water wells in drought-hit areas 🚰 Nigeria – Boko Haram targeted water access to isolate communities 🚰 Kenya – Inter-ethnic violence over shrinking lakes and grazing rights 🚰 Sudan – Rebel groups attacked water pipelines during political unrest 🚰 Gaza & Israel – Infrastructure blockades and water cutoff during conflict 🚰 Libya – Armed factions attacked water pipelines of the Great Man-Made River 🚰 USA (California) – Civil tensions and court battles over dwindling water during severe droughts 🚰 Venezuela – Public unrest and protests over unsafe or unavailable water 🚰 Iran – Farmers and civilians clashed with government over dried-up rivers What are the leadership takeaways? ✅ Water = Power. Whoever controls it, controls the people. ✅ Scarcity breeds conflict faster than oil ever did. ✅ Water infrastructure must be treated like national defense assets. ✅ Transboundary cooperation isn’t a choice. It’s survival. ✅ Ignoring rural water stress invites national instability. Actionable strategy for forward-thinking leaders: 🫡 Audit your water risks—in supply chains, agriculture, and geopolitics Watch for flashpoints: transboundary rivers, drought-prone zones, and mega dams 🫡 Build water resilience—circular systems, desalination, conservation tech 🫡 Engage communities—early, equitably, and consistently 🫡 Push water diplomacy as hard as trade or energy diplomacy If your country or company touches agriculture, mining, energy, infrastructure, or logistics—then water isn’t just an ESG checkbox. It’s a survival strategy. ♻️ Repost and Share this if you believe water will shape the future of peace, power, and policy. 💡Follow me for more eye-opening insights at the edge of strategy and sustainability.
