Judging by the flooding around the world, there's already more than enough water from evaporation and condensation from sea water and plants.
It's just in the wrong place at the wrong time such as kilometres of snow in Antarctica and Greenland. Or raining 12 metres per year over the Southern Alps while desert in Dubai leaves them dry.
There's something very pleasant about living next to a babbling brook. Maybe people would do better to move to pleasant habitats. Now that Malthusian population pressure is reducing, seeking refuge in the nooks and crannies of the world is less necessary .... though a billion Africans and Moslems are keen to get free stuff from and be ruled by Europeans.
Independence from the great and glorious British Empire was a bad outcome for billions ... they want to get back in. I bet swarms of people in Hong Kong are keeping their British passports safe and current.
I bet none are whoop de do burning their British passport and trading in for a mainland enslavement certificate.
Here in Melbourne, it's full of Mainlanders who have done a runner. Pushing up house prices. Same in Aotearoa-Zimbabwe. It's Chinese versus Chinese at the house auctions.
Kiwis are fleeing communism, master race apartheid, diversity equity and inclusion (DEI), environment, social, government ( ESG ) wokery, anti white man misandry, kleptocratic suffocatocracy, stupidity, wastrels, bludgers galore, criminals, violent thugs, road cones, potholes, collapsing railways and roads not being repaired, even designed to fail (brand new collapsing motorway to Warkworth), taxes, taxes and more taxes, CO2 mania, methane MADness, nitrogen fixation (that's a good pun if I do say so myself). National bankruptcy beckons. Borrowing and bludging are the dominant cultural norms.
What was New Zealand is now the setting, and characters straight out of Atlas Shrugged. Combined with George Orwell's 1984 and ministry of truth it's perfect.
Jacinda has now got a global Ministry of Truth job I believe. I'll check Google.
