PRESENTATION OUTLINE
Why is there a water crisis?
In the Twentieth Century the population tripled
and our use of water grew x6
The population is expected to reach 22 billion by 2020
The average Canadian uses 160 gallons of water everyday
Meanwhile millions of people survive with less then 3 gallons per day
We will likely run out of water before we run out of oil...
due to over-pumping the reservoirs
The ground water in many countries is almost gone
Although water covers 71% of the Earth...
Of that 71% only 2.5% is Drinkable
but only 1% of it is readily available for drinking
There are many factors contributing to the water crisis such as...
The rapid urbanizing of countries wipe out lakes and rivers. Also...
without water, food and livestock will die.
We need to look after this problem for the next generation
Water is wealth it's time to save
