Water World War (www)

I may be wrong, but I think I am more likely to be right. Perhaps with time, as water becomes scarce, human intolerance is diminishing.  A lack or excess of , creates an apocalypse that humanity will pay the price for perhaps the last time and we are heading towards this crisis.Three www ever terrible for world peace. www

Worldwide population growth, increased meat consumption and increased economic activity have increased the pressure on the world's water resources.  Fears are being raised that water shortages will force millions of people to migrate, leading to tensions and political instability. From Chile to Mexico, from Africa to the tourist destinations of southern Europe, water problems continue to grow.  Areas facing water problems i.e. 'water stressed' areas are determined on the basis of how much water is being used from underground reservoirs and other surface reservoirs compared to the available water resources.

66 million people around the world lack clean water۔

 One hundred billion people are at risk of food, water shortage and poverty'. From Chile to Mexico, from Africa to the tourist destinations of southern Europe, water problems continue to grow.According to the WRI, about one-third of the world's population, about 2.6 billion people, live in what have been described as 'highly water-stressed' countries.  Out of which 1.7 billion people are in 17 countries that are facing 'very acute water problems'.A dozen countries in the Middle East are facing the most difficult situations in terms of water problems.  Pakistan, Eritrea and Botswana have also been declared as countries facing severe water problems.

However, India has been identified as facing significant challenges in water use and management that will affect everything including its public health and economic development.The data comes from WRI's Aquaduct 3.0 platform, which evaluates multiple hydrological models and determines how much water is being used from surface and underground resources and in each region.  How much total water is available? When the ratio of these two things is between 40 and 80 percent, it is considered to have severe water problems.  When its ratio is more than 80%, it is considered to suffer from severe water problems.

Nine of India's 36 states have been put in the category of severe water problems, while Chennai, the capital of Tamil Nadu state, is facing floods.The WRI report said, "The ongoing water problems in a big city like Chennai indicate the kind of problems that India will face in the coming days."  Which are increasing due to non-standard water management. The report also states that if nothing is done, Mexico will face the same challenges as India.15 of Mexico's 32 states are classified as having severe water problems, and Rutger Hofstede points out that the water system in the capital, Mexico City, is extremely fragile.

Along with this, 16 regions of Chile have also been placed in the category of very severe water problems.  The Russian and Chinese capitals of Moscow and Beijing are also at risk, but those countries are not in this category.  Apart from these, several regions of Italy and Spain will also face severe problems as the influx of tourists in summer increases the pressure on the water systems there.According to the report, one third of Turkey is also suffering from severe water problems, that is, 27 out of 81 provinces have severe water shortage. However, the Western Cape region of South Africa, 17 districts of Botswana, parts of Namibia and Angola have also been declared as suffering from severe water problems. Although socio-economic factors create water problems, they can be countered with better water management.

Between 1961 and 2014, the rate of global freshwater withdrawal (whether from ground or underground reservoirs) increased 2.5 times.According to WRI, water demand for crop irrigation has doubled in the last half century and irrigation accounts for about 67 percent of water used.  In 2014, industry requires nearly three times as much water as in 1961 and now accounts for 21 percent of total water use.Although domestic water consumption accounts for 10 percent of total water use, it has increased sixfold since 1961.  And very little water is used for animal consumption.

But crops grown for animal feed consume 12 percent of the world's irrigation system.  That's why experts believe that by reducing the growing demand for animal meat, we can reduce the pressure on water resources.Hofstede says that this is the only way to solve the global water problems.  "We use a lot of agricultural land to feed animals and if you look at it in terms of transferring resources into calories, it's not the most efficient way." A 2012 study found that the production of any animal-based product for human consumption uses more water than that of plant-based products, even if the two are of equal nutritional value.

"When working with data, I try to be neutral about the results of the numbers, but I was very surprised to see that the situation in India  How bad they are.'India is ranked 13th and Pakistan is ranked 12th.Nine of India's 36 states have been placed in the category of severe water problems.Several United Nations agencies have warned that water supply will become uncertain in many places due to climate change.  The World Health Organization says that due to rising temperatures and unpredictable rains, crop losses will also be seen and food security is a major problem in many areas ahead.

 According to the United Nations, if current trends continue, 24 to 700 million people will have to relocate in some arid and semi-arid regions by 2030.WRI says that in many areas where water is scarce and war is ongoing, water is one of the factors of war.  These include Israel, Libya, Afghanistan, Yemen, Syria, and Iraq.

Many areas that receive large numbers of refugees, such as Jordan and Turkey, are also stressed by water problems for this reason.However, the Aquaduct data also revealed that although socio-economic factors create water problems, they can be countered with better water management.  An example of this is found in Singapore where the country collects water from four different sources.Meanwhile, Israel is also developing the best technology in terms of water management.  Countries like India where these problems are occurring or are likely to occur need better water management to combat them, Hofstede says.

"Water problems can be a proxy indicator for you, not your fate," he says.
