This document discusses the global water crisis, focusing on case studies in Sao Paulo, Cape Town, and India. It notes that 1.1 billion people lack access to clean water and outlines factors contributing to water shortages like poor infrastructure, pollution, and climate change. Case studies highlight multi-year droughts in Sao Paulo and Cape Town that have led to daily water rationing and the potential for "Day Zero" when Cape Town's taps run dry. India also faces shortages due to overextraction, pollution of water sources, and lack of proper planning. Solutions proposed include improved infrastructure, rainwater harvesting, wastewater recycling, and desalination.Water scarcity

This document discusses water scarcity and ways to save water. It notes that only 0.007% of earth's water is readily accessible for drinking, yet the average American uses over 500 liters per day. Simple steps people can take to conserve water include shortening shower times, turning off faucets tightly, fixing leaks immediately, and using low-flow fixtures and water-efficient appliances. Adopting these small changes can help address the growing global water crisis.scarcity of water around the world

Water scarcity is a growing problem caused by population growth outpacing available fresh water resources. Only 2.5% of the world's water is fresh, with much locked away in glaciers or underground. Water scarcity occurs when demand from agriculture, cities, and the environment exceeds the available supply. To address this, solutions like water conservation, wastewater recycling, and improving irrigation must be implemented, otherwise water conflicts and health issues will continue to escalate.Water crisis in india

Water scarcity is a major global challenge caused by uneven distribution of water resources and rising population. The problem stems from both physical water scarcity due to lack of water sources as well as economic scarcity from poor water management. As population and industrial use increase, stress on water resources grows. Solutions require improved conservation efforts like desalination as well as cooperation between countries on shared water resources. Without concerted global action, the water crisis threatens to worsen health, development and ecosystems.Global Water Crisis

Global water crisis is a serious issue affecting many regions of the world. Over 1/3 of the global population lacks access to clean drinking water. Lack of access to sanitation is linked to poverty and disproportionately impacts developing countries. Rapid population growth and development are straining water resources in many places through overuse, pollution, and depletion of sources. Improving access to clean water and sanitation worldwide is critical for public health, but achieving universal access remains a challenge.Global Water crisis

The document discusses the global water crisis and its causes and impacts. It notes that over 20% of the world's population lacks access to clean drinking water, resulting in poverty, disease, and death. A key cause is that only 3% of the world's water is freshwater, with most found in ice caps and glaciers or deep underground. Other factors include population growth, pollution, and lack of water infrastructure and sanitation systems. The water crisis disproportionately impacts the poor and is projected to worsen due to increasing demand from population and economic growth. Potential solutions discussed include more efficient water usage, water treatment technologies, and developing new sources like desalination and nanotechnology water filters.WATER SCARCITY
WATER SCARCITYLai Han

Water scarcity occurs when there is insufficient available water to meet water demand. It can be due to either economic or physical factors. Economically, some populations lack access to safe water due to lack of resources or infrastructure, while physically, some areas simply do not have enough water to meet demand due to climate or geography. Water scarcity affects health, life, agriculture and causes diseases. It is estimated that one in four deaths under age 5 are due to water-related disease and 80% of illnesses are caused by unsafe water. Water scarcity also threatens one quarter of the global population and over 10% consume wastewater irrigated foods which can transmit disease.Water scarcity by Group 4

Water scarcity is a major global problem affecting over 1.1 billion people who lack access to safe drinking water. It occurs when there is insufficient available water to meet water usage demands within a region. It is caused by both natural factors like drought as well as human factors such as pollution, overuse, and mismanagement of water resources. Many reports suggest that water scarcity is driven more by human factors associated with population growth, urbanization, and industrialization rather than purely physical availability of water. If not addressed, water scarcity could significantly impact livelihoods and food security around the world.Water crisis?

Water is essential for life but is a limited resource. Only 1% of the Earth's water is available for human and animal consumption, with 97% being salt water and 2% frozen. To help conserve this precious resource, individuals can take actions like turning off the tap while brushing teeth, only running dishwashers and washing machines when full, upgrading appliances to air-cooled models, watering lawns efficiently, and composting food waste instead of using the garbage disposal. Conserving water through simple behaviors can save significant amounts of this vital resource.Water resources ppt

Rural and urban areas in India face significant issues with water access and sanitation. In rural areas, most people lack piped water access and must collect water from sources like open wells or hand pumps, often spending significant time fetching water. Water quality is also an issue, with problems like arsenic contamination affecting millions of people. Sanitation infrastructure is similarly lacking, with most rural Indians practicing open defecation. In urban areas, piped supplies are unreliable and many cities face severe water shortages. Water theft and leakage exacerbate the problems in urban water systems. Overall, access to clean drinking water and sanitation remains inadequate in both rural and urban India.Water resources management in India.pptx

Water scarcity is caused by pollution, overuse of water resources, climate change, and growing freshwater demand. It affects over 3.5 million deaths annually and causes issues like hunger, poverty, disease and conflicts. To prevent further water scarcity, measures must be taken like sustainable water management, rainwater harvesting, pollution control, better sewage systems, and increasing education and awareness around water conservation.2013 my lect -wwd hotel palash-international year of water cooperation-bra...

This document summarizes a lecture on water resources. It discusses that water is the planet's most abundant natural resource but only a small percentage is available for human use. It then provides details on water resources in India, noting that while the country receives significant annual rainfall, only about a third can be accessed for use due to issues of storage, flooding and seasonal variation. The document also outlines various threats to freshwater supplies from climate change, overconsumption, and pollution. It discusses potential solutions like river interlinking projects in India as well as desalination, but notes the high energy costs associated with the latter.Water pollution

The document discusses the global and Indian water crisis. It notes that over 1 billion people lack access to safe water and 2 out of 3 people will face water shortages by 2025. In India, groundwater is being depleted, surface water is polluted, and rainfall is being wasted. This puts pressure on India's population and economic growth. Some solutions proposed include investing in desalination plants, implementing water footprinting to improve conservation, harvesting rainwater, and increasing awareness through social media. However, addressing the water crisis requires consideration of cultural, educational, technological and scientific factors.Water availability: global and indian scenarios

Water crisis
- 1. Water Crisis
- 2. CONTENT Introduction Supply & Demand Physical & Economic scarcity Effects on environment Water scarcity in India
- 3. Introduction Water scarcity is the lack of fresh water resources to meet water demand. It affects every continent and was listed in 2019 by the World Economic Forum as one of the largest global risks in terms of potential impact over the next decade. The essence of global water scarcity is the geographic and temporal mismatch between freshwater demand and availability.
- 4. Supply & Demand The total amount of easily accessible freshwater on Earth, in the form of surface water (rivers and lakes) or groundwater), is 14.000 cubic kilometers Of this total amount, 'just' 5.000 cubic kilometers are being used and reused by humanity. Scarcity as a result of consumption is caused primarily by the extensive use of water in agriculture/livestock breeding and industry.
- 6. Physical & Economic scarcity Physical water scarcity results from inadequate natural water resources to supply a region's demand. Economic water scarcity results from poor management of the sufficient available water resources.
- 7. Global physical and economic water scarcity
- 8. Effects on environment Increased salinity, nutrient pollution, and the loss of floodplains and wetlands.
- 9. Depletion of freshwater resources Groundwater Glaciers More than half of the Earth's wetlands have been destroyed and have disappeared. Climate change
- 10. Water Scarcity: Indias Silent Crisis According to a NITI Aayog report, India will run out of ground water in the next 10 years. Close to 40 percent of India will not get access to drinking water by 2030.
- 13. All eyes on Jal Shakti ministry as India's water crisis deepens The solution is better conservation of water and moving away from heavy reliance on groundwater for agriculture. The centre should lower GST for rainwater harvesting equipment. Giving tax breaks for wastewater and incentivizing drip irrigation is also the need of the hour. The government had also promised that it will implement recycling 100 percent liquid waste.
