It is situation in which the water demand is more than the supply, and this can often lead to desertification, drought, dehydration and deaths in some cases.

FAO (Food & Agriculture Organisation) estimated that by 2025, 1.9 billion people will be living in countries with complete water scarcity, and two thirds of the population will be trapped in water-stress conditions, if we continue to use water as carelessly as we do right now.]]> 2018-08-25 16:12:36 UTC https://padlet.com/minahil_mobeen11/10rgit7y6mvg/wish/275322679 minahil_mobeen11 https://padlet.com/minahil_mobeen11/10rgit7y6mvg/wish/275323043 Yemen is one the countries most harshly affected but the water crisis. In fact, Yemen's Capital, Sanaa is thought to be the first major city in the world to run out of water completely.
Other countries or places include Libya, Jordan, Western Sahara, Djibouti, Cape Town (South Africa), Flint (Michigan, USA), and Pakistan. The reason why water is such a huge in these countries is because they have other issues such as climate, political issues and terrorism. ]]> 2018-08-25 16:18:38 UTC https://padlet.com/minahil_mobeen11/10rgit7y6mvg/wish/275323043 minahil_mobeen11 https://padlet.com/minahil_mobeen11/10rgit7y6mvg/wish/275323934 Pakistan's water crisis is one of the most severe in the entire world. The Thar Desert is on the brink of running out of water and in Karachi, and other rural areas, clean water is very difficult to come by.
Several experts say that Pakistan could be out of water by 2025 since we are already 3rd on the list of facing acute water shortage, and on our way to become the most water-stressed country in the world.
Pakistan has already touched the "water-stress line" in 1990, and crossed it in 2005. Some people think water scarcity may turn out to be a greater threat than terrorism for the country.]]> 2018-08-25 16:30:20 UTC https://padlet.com/minahil_mobeen11/10rgit7y6mvg/wish/275323934 minahil_mobeen11 https://padlet.com/minahil_mobeen11/10rgit7y6mvg/wish/275324558 The global water crisis has several factors that contribute to it's severity. These include the population growth which means that the demand for clean water is increasing. Another factor is that urbanization and agriculture use up a lot of clean water. Factories and industries end up wasting huge amounts of water. Cleaning or desalination cost huge amounts of money which many countries don't have. Other problems include the wastage of water and lack of dams, which means water isn't saved, rather it is used carelessly, even though we are on the verge of a waterless world.]]> 2018-08-25 16:41:39 UTC https://padlet.com/minahil_mobeen11/10rgit7y6mvg/wish/275324558 minahil_mobeen11 https://padlet.com/minahil_mobeen11/10rgit7y6mvg/wish/275325171 Raising awareness about the ongoing and deadly water crisis could for sure be one of the best and easiest ways to try and find a permanent solution to this problem. We have to stop wasting water and use water with caution. We have to plant more trees and stop pollution to ensure that no water is wasted by being dried up or polluted. We have to participate in organisations that put a stop to industries and individuals wasting water. To prevent deaths from water shortages, we have to supply water to the areas that suffer most from the water crisis, and help them out, like Little Miss Flint has done in Flint. We can also build dams and water reservoirs to collect the maximum amount of water from rain showers.
Through these actions, we can make a difference and save the Earth from drying up.]]> 2018-08-25 16:54:15 UTC https://padlet.com/minahil_mobeen11/10rgit7y6mvg/wish/275325171 minahil_mobeen11 https://padlet.com/minahil_mobeen11/10rgit7y6mvg/wish/275326366 The water crisis may destroy the world before any war or social issue, such as terrorism or racism. Although the world has many problems and is suffering from many different angles, the global water crisis needs our attention first and foremost. Thoughts?
What can we do at an individual and community level to save ourselves, save water and save the earth?]]> 2018-08-25 17:17:03 UTC https://padlet.com/minahil_mobeen11/10rgit7y6mvg/wish/275326366 minahil_mobeen11 https://padlet.com/minahil_mobeen11/10rgit7y6mvg/wish/275329038 2018-08-25 18:11:36 UTC https://padlet.com/minahil_mobeen11/10rgit7y6mvg/wish/275329038 minahil_mobeen11 https://padlet.com/minahil_mobeen11/10rgit7y6mvg/wish/275329149 2018-08-25 18:13:20 UTC https://padlet.com/minahil_mobeen11/10rgit7y6mvg/wish/275329149 minahil_mobeen11 https://padlet.com/minahil_mobeen11/10rgit7y6mvg/wish/275329203 2018-08-25 18:14:35 UTC https://padlet.com/minahil_mobeen11/10rgit7y6mvg/wish/275329203 minahil_mobeen11 https://padlet.com/minahil_mobeen11/10rgit7y6mvg/wish/275329553 2018-08-25 18:23:17 UTC https://padlet.com/minahil_mobeen11/10rgit7y6mvg/wish/275329553 minahil_mobeen11 https://padlet.com/minahil_mobeen11/10rgit7y6mvg/wish/275329917 2018-08-25 18:32:07 UTC https://padlet.com/minahil_mobeen11/10rgit7y6mvg/wish/275329917 minahil_mobeen11 https://padlet.com/minahil_mobeen11/10rgit7y6mvg/wish/275330056 2018-08-25 18:35:39 UTC https://padlet.com/minahil_mobeen11/10rgit7y6mvg/wish/275330056
