Peak irrigated land

Oh looks like something else peaked to!

I like in the article how it says:

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'G')lobal freshwater use tripled during the second half of the twentieth century as population more than doubled and as technological advances let farmers and other water users pump groundwater from greater depths and harness river water with more and larger dams.


When really it was cheap energy that allowed us to do this.

I believe that peak oil will herald in the peak of most other things as the cheap energy used to produce other things becomes more and more costly.
