2025: Water Scarce Communities

Don't let this be the future of many lakes and rivers!

H2O Scarcity
By 2025, 38% of the world will encounter water scarce communities. If we really want to prevent this unlivable future, we must act now. According to the article "7 Easy Ways to Save Water" by. Yoneda (Click here!), some small changes can be made by anyone who lives in a house or apartment  in order to reduce water consumption and fight the drought especially in California. One solution that can be easily done by most of the population is taking shorter showers or installing low-flow showerheads to reduce water use by 30%. Another way the U.S. wastes so much water is actually through a daily activity (we all do!) of flushing the toilet. A great solution to this is to install low-flow toilets that only uses 1.6 gallons per flush.


Even though we are surrounded by miles and miles of ocean water,
there is only 2.5% of that water that is freshwater and able to be accessed.
One of my solutions to this problem is to enact a worldwide water conservation law to reduce the water consumption of each participatory country (especially the U.S.!) It is imperative that we start saving water and take necessary action that will ultimately change our future outcome. Also, we should try to implement a worldwide law to limit the amount of meat produced and the water allowed per family. Ultimately, we should start a world effort to educate the population on water consumption and start implementing reduction programs now. (Do your part and watch below!)
