This letter, written in the year 2070, describes how a lack of water has severely impacted society. The author is one of the oldest people at 50 years old due to water shortages causing health issues. Society has changed drastically - there are no trees, lawns, or excess water usage. People must shave their heads and use mineral oil instead of water. Water is now strictly rationed and valuable assaults occur over it. The environment is destroyed, skin and health have deteriorated, and life expectancy is just 35 years. The author feels guilty for the generation that contributed to this destruction by not properly addressing warnings about protecting the environment and conserving water.
