Produktbeschreibung
Water is one of the most important and basic natural resources. Water is not only one of the most essential and critical commodities of our day-to-day life, but the development of this natural resource also plays a crucial role in economic and social development processes. While the total amount of water available in the world is constant and is generally said to be adequate to meet all the demands of mankind, its quality and distribution over different regions of the world is uneven and causes problems of scarcity and suitability. About one-fifth of the world's population lacks access to safe drinking water, and with present consumption patterns two out of every three persons on the earth will live in water-stressed conditions by 2025. Pollution, scarcity of water resources and climate change will be the major emerging issues in the 21st century.
