john silvia, we can always talk about larry summers.le theory is that we are going to see a reversion to the mean because we have to. the single best argument against that is because there are still lots and lots of people living in rural areas ready to move but the cities are not as attractive. >> reversion to the mean is a long way away. maybe 10-20 years of above average world economic growth is still to come in china. i think the restructuring of the economy goes on, consumer spending continues to increase. there is a lot of migration and a lot of changes going on. >> in sÃo paulo, a shell of a car is seen in the reservoir near so apollo -- sÃo paulo. the reservoir is only at 5% capacity. that is so severe the drought is. it is experiencing the lowest rainfall level since 1930. >> this is a problem that is all over sÃo paulo state. there is also hideous mismanagement. people talk about brazil as the saudi arabia of water. the problem is how do you make sure that the water gets to the places where people needed? >> are they telling p
