Virtual Water- short story

The adjective 'virtual' refers to the fact that most of the water used to produce a product is not contained in the product. We do not realize the actual amount of water we use in our daily lives. Behind a morning cup of coffee are 140 liters of water used to grow, produce, package and ship the beans. The ubiquitous burgers need an estimated 2,400 liters of water, this is more than the amount of water an average person uses while taking a long shower or while drinking.

Most of us have either had access to or have heard about virtual reality, a highly interactive, platform that enables people to be "present" in the virtual environment - to the extent that their body and mind believe what is happening is real .

Now, imagine a world without water. A virtual world that is soon to be reality. That's what this short story is about. Hope it can bring a change.
