because we all need resource infoporn

See here for a ginormous chart of the world's remaining metal resources, courtesy of the fine folk at The Big Picture and one of the commenters posted this link about water supplies. Now, take all this with a really big grain of salt as the chart makes no reference to improved/increased recycling rates, better recovery technology, alternate materials, etc. According to some, we should have hit peak oil years ago, but technological advancements keep staving that off. That and economic downturns.
