1. Israel, a country situated in a desert region with limited natural water resources, is bracing for a future marked by potential severe droughts, even as debates over climate change persist.

   A report by Israel’s national water company, Mekorot, warns of increasing flood risks in the country’s central region – where the majority of the population lives and the location of critical infrastructure.

   The dramatic drop in rainfall has led to a lower water level in the Sea of Galilee, Israel’s largest and most important natural freshwater reservoir. At the same time, the report notes a 2.5% increase in household water consumption and a 9% rise in agricultural use across the country.

2. If only I could be bothered to care.

3. God ain’t sleeping

4. It’s pretty amazing that growing up in Israel, water was always this issue everyone were constantly talking about. Saving water, not wasting water, etc.

   These days? Still a bit but not so much. We have solved most of our water issues plus supplying a lot of it to Jordan via technology.

   Also, Israeli water technologies are supplying water to over 5 million people in Africa through non-profits.

5. You know what’s bad for climate change? Carpet bombing, white phosphorous, and burning forests.

6. Have they tried bombing the water sources into submission?

7. Wow, in the same country whose war criminals cut off water to Gaza?
