  9. Houston's potential water crisis

    When it rains it pours.  But rain has been hard to come by in Houston lately, and now a new study finds that Houston is the 2nd most likely major city to suffer from a major water shortage.
The findings come from research done by 24/7 Wall Street.
Ceres and the National Resource and Defense Council have also found Houston a possible hotspot for severe water shortage conditions in the next 20 years.
The findings are based on projected water demand, groundwater use, freshwater withdrawals, drought and other factors.
The Houston Public Works and Planning department call the findings, "speculative" with no real statistics.
President&CEO Robert Harriss of the Houston Advanced Research Center says the NRDC figures are "right on."
Harriss says he can imagine a mega drought hitting Houston and resulting in devastating conditions.
