Are we in deep water? Water scarcity and its limits to economic growth
Tiziano Distefano,Scott Kelly +1 more
TLDR
In this paper, the authors developed a multi-regional input-output model to estimate future demand for water resources across different countries and sectors of the global economy, concluding that the most important driver of future water scarcity is economic growth, which overwhelms any realistic savings that can be made from increased technological progress and improvements to water efficiency.About:

Global Water Resources: Vulnerability from Climate Change and Population Growth
TL;DR: Numerical experiments combining climate model outputs, water budgets, and socioeconomic information along digitized river networks demonstrate that (i) a large proportion of the world's population is currently experiencing water stress and (ii) rising water demands greatly outweigh greenhouse warming in defining the state of global water systems to 2025.
