we can always find a replacement for oil, but once water is gone, its gone. there would be miilions of people going into a panick, and water bills would skyrocket!
Pretty much it would be caos.

There is no such thing as a water shortage because the Earth is 3/4 water (75%).

Water will win. Water is non replaceable in human life. Oil can be substituted by other things. We can't drink and shower with oil, all species will die without water, not oil.

What you are referring to is potable water which is a function of the number of treatment plants verses population.There won't be a water shortage,just the cost of treatment may be painful.

that's the dumbest thing i have ever heard. 2/3 of the earth's surface is covered with water. plus, oil is a non-renewable resourse. water can be made if needed.
