In case you didn't know, fresh water is a necessity for human and plant life and there is a limited supply of it. By limited I mean rainwater only replenishes underground water sources at specific rate and if you leech the water out of those sources before it refills, you have effectively made that water a non-renewable resource. I hate to tell you but possibilities don't water crops and magic doesn't make garbage and other waste go poof.
So we have two choices... Stop using water, or figure out how to use the thousands of gallons of water that are in our oceans..

Scarcity is contextual and technology is a resource liberating force
This guy pretty much lays out what fly said, fly takes it further by imagining what life could be like 200 years down the road if people stop thinking about themselves and start thinking about humanity as a whole.
