FYI: Drought, Water, Society & Civilization in the News (UPDATED!)

Sample questions to consider:

  1. How does the availability (or lack thereof) affect the development of societies?
  2. Are we immune to such effects in our "developed" societies of the early twenty-first century?
  3. Can ancient societies teach us anything specific about water use and conservation, do you think?

(Again... if you want to comment here, your analytical comments don't have to be on all these readings, and aren't limited to addressing these questions only!)
