Water Stress Infographic


We all know that water is the most vital resourse well, one of them, there is always this argument... this is a interactive graphic showing water stress for the next 50 years. 
"Here we present global data from the United Nations Environment Programme and Stockholm Environment Institute, indicating how freshwater demand is likely to develop through to 2050. It uses the current rate of water use per person, without taking into account possible increases in water use due to economic growth or improvements in water use efficiency. The regions most vulnerable to domestic water shortages include those where access to water is already limited, where the population is growing rapidly, where urban centers are spreading, and where the economy is burdened by financial problems and a lack of skilled workers." 

Nice graphic, bad news.
