2. There are many places in the world
that don’t have easy access to clean
water and people need water to
survive so when they don’t have it,
they are suffering. Our goal is to
increase awareness of this need for
water in places where there isn’t
clean water or easy access.
3. Why Does Water Scarcity Exist?
Water Pollution
Water pollution has
contaminated our
limited freshwater
sources. Pesticides,
fertilizers, human
wastewater, and
industrial waste
have tainted the
water flowing
through our rivers.
Water Stress
Water stress
occurs when the
demand for water
exceeds the
amount of water
available. Water
stress can
deteriorate a water
source quickly in
terms of quality
and quantity.
Agriculture
Agriculture
consumes a large
amount of water, but
60% of it is wasted.
Leaky systems and
bad application
methods have
caused an
unnecessary waste
of water.
