If a global water shortage and potential food supply disruptions have you concerned, why not invest in water conservation and efficient food production? A wide range of water stocks are profiled over at WaterIntell.com, and here's a new one worth looking into:
Lindsay Corp. (NYSE: LNN) manufactures efficient irrigation equipment to assist farmers in increasing productivity per acre, utilizing a minimal amount of water.
Bunge (NYSE: BG) is dedicated to improving the global agribusiness and food production chain, via four divisions: agribusiness, sugar and bioenergy, food and ingredients and fertilizer. To be honest, I'm not sure how "green" this company is, however I do believe they will benefit from their bioenergy division.
Agriculture equipment companies like Caterpillar (NYSE: CAT) and Deere (NYSE: DE) are also sure to be in demand in the years and decades ahead.

FSLR worth accumulating before 2012
I have had this post on my "to-do" list for about 3 or 4 days now, ever since First Solar announced higher efficiency thin film solar cells. Still, even though the stock has gone from 59 to 73 in the past 24 hours, FSLR is a long term play that should do well in 2012.
If you have powder dry and are itching to get in, you may wanna start accumulating First Solar in the coming days and weeks, with the goal of having your full position in place by last week of November or first week of December.
Target is $120 Q1 or $140 Q2 2012.

Green Stocks to WATCH; Solar, Thorium, Clean Water
Here are a few green stocks worth keeping an eye on, and perhaps accumulating on any Autumn general market weakness (notes from company websites and Nick Hodge of Energy & Capital):
Amtech Systems (NASDAQ: ASYS), maker of the furnaces, cell transfer systems, and vapor deposition products necessary to produce today's solar panels. They win no matter which solar company wins: GE, First Solar, Sharp — it doesn't matter... They all need solar panel production equipment.
IBC Advanced Alloys (IB), is a leading manufacturer and developer of advanced alloys for the global market with a focus on specialty copper alloys and high performance beryllium aluminum castings. IBC’s engineered solutions are essential for many high technology products used in a broad range of market sectors including nuclear power, automotive, oil and gas, electronics and aerospace. Complementing the Company’s manufacturing operations are R&D programs and natural resource initiatives focused on enhancing and supporting IBC growing US manufacturing base.
Lightbridge Corp. (NASDAQ: LTBR), formerly known as Thorium Power Corp., researching thorium powered reactors, and possibly in the future, cars. According to the website txchnologist.com, owned by GE:
A 250-kilowatt unit (equivalent to about 335 horsepower) weighing about 500 pounds would be small and light enough to put under the hood of a car, Stevens claims. And because a gram of thorium has the equivalent potential energy content of 7,500 gallons of gasoline, LPS calculates that using just 8 grams of thorium in the unit could power an average car for 5,000 hours, or about 300,000 miles of normal driving.
Urban Barns (OTCBB: URBF) is the next generation of agriculture. We use advanced farming methods to grow fruits and vegetables in a controlled indoor environment, and our crop yields are much greater than a traditional greenhouse. We plan to put an Urban Barn in every major urban centre, so that our food can be on the shelf within 48 hours of being picked, for an unprecedented level of freshness and quality.
Seawater Greenhouse is a UK company not yet public, that builds greenhouses that use seawater and sunshine and produce vegetables and fresh water. A 2,000-square-meter version has already been completed in South Australia. It cost $2 million to build and will produce over 220,000 pounds of tomatoes per year. It needs no fossil fuels or pesticides, so its costs are up to 25% less than traditional greenhouses. Abu Dhabi, Oman, Jordan, and other arid countries by the sea are all in line to get them.
