From the Climate Disinformation Database: Todd Kendall
Todd Kendall is executive vice president of Compass Lexecon, an economics consulting firm that has worked with several large oil companies, and a former assistant professor of economics at Clemson University. Kendall has consistently opposed the idea of divestment in the fossil fuel industry to reduce climate change, and has helped author multiple reports arguing this point for the Independent Petroleum Association of America. But maybe no one told him that a non-oil industry funded report recently found that banks financing the Dakota Access pipeline lost $4.4 billion in costs as people closed their accounts in protest.

2018: The Year of Day Zero and the Mega-Drought
By Justin Mikulka (8 min. read)
In 2018, Cape Town, South Africa, one of the wealthiest cities in Africa, faced the prospect of running out of water. This city of four million people was counting down the days to “Day Zero,” when they would turn on the taps and find them dry.
Ultimately, Cape Town's water conservation measures helped the city narrowly miss reaching Day Zero (for now).
However, the experience stands out as a warning of what's to come for large, developed population centers as climate change puts increasing pressure on the world's water in unprecedented and unexpected ways, from a mega-drought in the American West to drier soils preventing rivers and lakes from recharging when rain does arrive.

Green pumps for Jordan's water
Jordan goes to great lengths to get water to its people. It's a dry country that requires a lot of power and the water still doesn't always reach its destination. New technology could be the solution.
