The UK’S capital is number nine in the list of global cities most likely to run out of drinking water, rivers campaigner Feargal Sharkey said at NewScientist Live on 8 October.

Sorting the problem requires a lot of money, but consumers, not the privatized water companies, may be asked to foot the bill. “The [UK] National Infrastructure Commission are estimating simply to keep London and England’s taps running over the next 30 years is going to take another 20 billion pounds … of your money,” said Sharkey.
