#2If weather patterns shift, the infrastructure built to store water will have to shift as well.
Earth is a closed system, so we should expect to see water storage decline in some areas and flooding increase in some areas.
It’s all climate change stuff.

#3Damn, and that is with all the glaciers melting, which fills water reservoirs. Once they are completely gone, it is going to get so much worse.

Of course, Earth is a closed system, but I am not sure it is that closed.

I don't mean this to sound snarky. I'm genuinely curious where you think the water will go, if not to other places on earth.

We lose atmosphere to space everyday.

The mesosphere has very little water in it.
