Economic water scarcity is caused by a lack of investment in infrastructure or technology to draw water from rivers, aquifers or other water sources, or insufficient human capacity to satisfy the demand for water. One-quarter of the world's population is affected by economic water scarcity. Growing population, over-exploitation and unequal distribution of water among social groups are the main causes of water scarcity.
Major Causes Of Water Scarcity
- Climate change.
- Natural calamities such as droughts and floods.
- Increased human consumption.
- Overuse and wastage of water.
- A global rise in freshwater demand.
- Overuse of aquifers and its consequent slow recharge.
