It's not the movie scenario, it's quite real.
Over the years we have all realized the warming that the planet has been having, and the guilt... we all know is ours.

Global warming is a serious problem and not even the treaties made in this regard have been fully respected by the nations.
As anticipated the first serious problems are already happening, and the citizens of Cape Town in South Africa already feel them well.

According to forecasts, this city will run out of water as early as April 21.
Well, it will have water, but when the reserves are around 13%, all the water flow will be directed to hospitals and essential services, however the municipal chamber will provide 25 liters of water per citizen in 200 "faucets" spread throughout the city,
