    Yes I know we have plenty of ways to get water from A to B, but that isn’t my point.

    I am just saying that this hypothetical depends on what we would be giving up. If we can still live our lives, but we have to get water from the store instead of from the tap, I would be fine with it.

    Car’s are a necessary evil at the moment, and we need to change that, sadly there are a lot of people in countries like the US or Canada who actively work against biking, walking and public infrastructure.

    “We need to remove the bike lanes because the fire engine can’t get to point C quickly enough” meanwhile in NL they just drive over the bike lanes to get to D even quicker …

      Mmmhmm. I sorta like the point that you want to just rush past. Civilization is a good thing. Among other things, it brings us water…

      Ya, I get it. You are obsessed with cars. Ok.

        Civilisation is a good thing yes also having access to clean and drinkable water is a good thing, but we don’t need to flush our toilets with drink water, we don’t need to shower with drink water, we don’t need to water our plants with drink water or wash our cars with drink water.

        I drink a lot of water per day and I hate it when I am in a country where I can’t, but buying jugs of 8 litter water to drink isn’t the worst thing either.

        And since when are we obsessed about something when we talking about hypotheticals? Cause that is what this all was, heck I didn’t even start about cars, that other person did …
