No one can "blame" any one event on CC. If you weren't attributing the Atlanta water situation to CC, why did you introduce CC? Not like they are today. And they will get far, far more intense over the coming decades. And not just in the US. Over most of the populated world. Populated. There's an interesting word. What's the most important factor in competition for water? Always been, always will be population. Plenty of water around, even with GW, if there weren't so many people and so many more in the future. Now that you mention it, there wouldn't be so much man-made GW if there weren't so many people. But if someone did construct a web of causation, then CC, population increase, and short-sighted management of water resources and infrastructure by individuals, municipalities and states would be at or very near the center of the web. The epicenter of the web is population increase, not GW. GW is a symptom, not a cause. The "implications" of GW are being misread.
