Two disturbing news that confirms a trend that water will overwhelm energy as the next tension maker of the international politic landscape. A conflict threat over water in the Asia-Pacific region and more regional is a tension threat over a river running between the two main economical states of Brazil, Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo for water supply. Regionally and internationally we can see growing tensions over water resources for irrigation, fishery or simple fresh water resource for local population. Climate change is not helping re-drawing the water distribution and industries are entering the game of water utilization exploring the law gaps for their own interest. Ever since China took over Tibet 50 years ago and decided not to release control over it for no other motives that Tibet is the water font of most of the Chinese provinces.
