All these things could be answered by the used of better water treatment and desalinization. It always boils down to money. Until the time comes when it's cost affective, we should be conserving and curtailing pollution. the problem isn't that the water isn't there, it's that too much of it is dirty.

Because water is an EXTREMELY important resource. Without it, all life would die out. Sometimes, places suffer shortages from drought, but other times it is overuse. There's also the possiblity that a normal source was polluted. Well, for the mundane, there could be restrictions such as only watering your lawn on even-numbered days, etc., but on a larger scale, it could cause population to decrease if there simply was not enough water to go around.
