Water wars in Florida
According to the Natural Resources Defense Council’s recent study, Florida is one of 14 states predicted to face “high risk” water shortages by the year 2050.〔“Climate Change, Water, and Risk: Current Water Demands Are Not Sustainable” ''Natural Resources Defense Council 2010'', http://www.nrdc.org.〕 The state’s water is primarily drawn from the Floridan Aquifer as well as from the St. Johns River, the Suwannee River, and the Ocklawaha River. Florida’s regional water conflicts stem primarily from the fact that the majority of the fresh water supply is found in the rural north, while the bulk of the population, and therefore water consumption, resides in the south. Metropolitan municipalities in central and south Florida have neared their aquifer extraction limit of per day, leading to the search for new, extra-regional sources.〔Goodnough, Abby, “Developers Urge Support of Water Transfer to Populous South Florida”, ''The New York Times'', September 27, 2003, http://www.nytimes.com/2003/09/27/us/developers-urge-support-of-water-transfer-to-populous-south-florida.html.〕
