Dear MEL School’s
Topic Readers,
A future of
thirst: Water crisis lies on the horizon
As the world
population increases at a historic pace, so does the consumption of food and
water. Also, the amount of water for industrious use and home utilities such as
toilet flush and gardening is expected to grow accordingly as modern life style
becomes more popular among the increasing population. Then a simple question
arises. Will people and the world get enough water?
There is also a
scary scenario that Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) warned in
a report in March. Climate change would further threaten the world water
security such as water availability, water demand and pollution that already suffers
roughly 80 percent of the world's population. The impact on climate change is
expected to make wet countries wetter and dry countries drier.
Enjoy reading and
learning how water shortage would affect the world security.
