Will we ever run out of drinkable water?

4.18K views

I am very scared that in the near future there won’t be enough water in the world. I read news from France, Belgium and even Australia that these countries have water issues and the water usage is being regulated.

I already know that the drinkable water is not a renewable source.

It is something we should be thinking about as consumers. It’s a scary fact but a fact none the less that as the population increases so does the demand for water. Extreme weather and drought will be more frequent, as we are already seeing, reducing the amount of water available for treatment. If the water isn’t in the water table or in our rivers and streams it isn’t there to be treated for us to consume.

We all have a part to play in securing water as a resource for future generations. It’s a good thing that this worries you, we should all be thinking about it.
