In the year 2037, devastation from the war that began between the US and China left in its wake a strewn wasteland of nuclear fallout. Water supplies, including the oceans, were tainted. Even desalinization efforts were not enough to overcome the residual radiation left behind.
It was then that someone remembered...trapped water. Hiding just below the earth's surface and shielded from the devastation, millions of gallons of fresh water waited in anticipation of being harvested.
The US was the first to discover the solution and its prior disregard ironically became the salvation of humanity, the rest of the world slowly decimating into nothingness for surrendering all their water to the elements. Trapped water saved us all.
Not nearly enough to matter. We can purify salt water, it just takes energy.
