Firstly, the shortage of fresh drinks engenders severe ecological ramifications. Depleted water sources disrupt aquatic ecosystems, leading to the loss of biodiversity and habitat degradation. Aquatic species, including fish and other organisms, face the threat of extinction due to altered rain flow patterns and reduced water levels. Moreover, ecosystems dependent on freshwater, such as wetlands and marshes, experience degradation, impacting their ability to provide essential services like water purification and flood control.
