  1. "I agree. As a nation we are even selling the water from the Great Lakes to China!!! "

    Which nation? The Great Lakes belong to two nations, Canada and the USA, and are regulated by the International Joint Commission, which was set up over a 100 years ago to deal with issues such as water export. However as of 2002 with the International Boundary Waters Treaty Act it is in fact illigal to remove more than 50 million cubic meters at a time. Bulk tankers hauling water to China was proposed in the 90's but it didn't happen.

    As a footnote, there is a move in Alaska to sell water to China in bulk tankers, but I don't think this has happened yet either, only proposed.
