Have fun in the water wars, kids!
Where's the water going to go? It's in the water cycle, if anything is going to rain a lot more and a lot more violently, and in areas it shouldn't be raining.
If it's contaminated we should be fine collecting and stiling rain water.
"Water is a rare and precious resource" when not talking about habitats, is a silly hyper capitalist argument meant to stoke fear and panic purchases.
Just a heads up, but most states have laws that guard against rain water capture. For example Colorado only allows 2 barrels or 110 gallons per year!

Avg US citizen uses 100 gallons/day
