The next war will be for Water! "Who Will Feed China 2?" Conserving Water the World Over It has not yet been a year since the South–North Water Transfer Project began in earnest. The project's aim is to divert almost 50 billion cubic metres of water from the Yangtze River in southern China to the Yellow and Hai River, both located in northern China, where water resources have been gradually diminished as a result of industrialization and relatively low annual rainfall. Given southern China’s bounty of H2O, expectations were that the project would reach completion without any major complications, but now its implementers confront an unexpected reality: that after a timely Autumnal dry spell, water reserves at Danjiangkou reservoir are much lower than they first anticipated. Annually, the reservoir averages approximately 9.5 billion cubic metres of water, a volume massive enough to supply 19 major cities; by September, due to a lack of rain and with many upstream dams preserving water in the event of a winter or spring drought, it had managed only 70 percent of this mammoth figure.
