Very interesting data set! I'll have to download it when I get back to my computer and take a look. One thing that bothers me is that the language used seems to be somewhat alarmist about loss of water, when the real problem is much more complex and the surface area of water is actually growing. Maybe it's a nitpick but I think alarmist language can tend to prevent people from taking an honest look at important data. Side note, I've been looking for a map of the world's fresh water that I can plug into Google Earth. This may contain that data, I'll have to check, but is anyone aware of related datasets that I could use to find things like bodies of fresh water in deciduous forests, for example?
