Hey David! I'm working on a project in South Africa, where we work to restore the Baviaanskloof catchment area. By restoring vegetation we increase water capture and retainment of the area. The catchment provides about 70% of the water to Port Elizabeth and its neighbouring cities. Farmers in the catchment area however, are not very relient on the capture/retainment, as there is enough water there. I think this can be a large issue, getting (and keeping) the water from where it is to where it is needed. Luckily, we don't have to devise an economic incentive as we are sponsored (yay Coca-Cola!). What's your take on water transportation, skewed needs and the like?
