The Global Water Crisis

Water scarcity affects more than 40% of the global population, and this number is projected to rise due to climate change and population growth. The water crisis is not just about having enough water, but also about access to clean, safe water for drinking, sanitation, and hygiene.

Key Challenges

  • Population Growth: Increasing demand for water resources
  • Climate Change: Altered precipitation patterns and extreme weather
  • Pollution: Contamination of freshwater sources
  • Infrastructure: Aging water systems and lack of access
  • Agriculture: 70% of freshwater used for irrigation
