Hey folks, welcome back. This is Elliot with the Poor Proz Almanac. You can find us on Spotify, iTunes, and wherever you get your podcasts,

and you can find us on Patreon if you'd like to help us cover the cost of hosting the podcasts.

We don't offer any knowledge, content related benefits to our patrons in terms of limited access

or anything like that right now. Knowledge is for everyone. And if we get more money than we need,

we'll be donating it to good

causes and keep you in the loop on that. Thank you to our incredible patrons on Patreon, Elizabeth C,

John R, Kenneth H, Eric G, Amber L, Little Fox, Lucas G, Jarber 2.05, M.J. Wallace, and Sam G. You guys are all amazing, and we wouldn't be

as motivated to keep working on this project without y'all, so thank you very much. We've also

started a new mini-series focused on peripheral stuff for our Patreon folks that will be

tied around some subject areas correlated to the core content of this podcast.

So we'll be talking about things like Cottage Corps and Joel Salatin to radioactive pigs and lost indigenous crops and much, much more.

If that sounds interesting to you, for $2, you'll get some episodes like that, and

we'll be able to support this podcast for you guys.

Here's a quick taste of it uh by 2025 water scarcity is going to be pretty prevalent across the world and it's not that

we can't find water it's that the water that we're able to use is going to be less available

it's going to be harder to get.

Yeah, clean water that hasn't been destroyed by people.

I know at least in a couple of the episodes that we've done, I've brought up some of the

aquifers underground that have been pretty much tapped dry, things that had been...

21 out of 37 of the aquifers are like being depleted like right now.

Yeah.

And they said to fill a lot of them up would take like 5,000 years, 10,000 years.
