There are a growing demand for fresh water nowadays and this is becoming a global problem. What are the causes and solutions?

Although

environmentalists fight tooth and nail , the Shortage of fresh-water becomes one of the main problems around the globe in the current era. The rising world population and

climate

change

are the main causes for

this

development and birth control and limited environmental pollution can be taken as solutions for

this

problem .In the following essay ,

this

writer wishes to

further

elaborate on

this

matter

.

To begin

with , during the

last

century , the number of human communities have increased dramatically and the demand for basic requirements like freshwater

also

has shooted up. .

However

, the

sources

of freshwater have reduced compared to

this

rising demand leading to an immense imbalance . At the same time , with the usage of fossil fuel, there is a positive carbon balance and ultimately

this

has led to

climate

change

,which invariably reduces the freshwater

sources

. To illustrate

this

, researchers at the University of Toronto have shown, 50% of the freshwater

sources

had been wiped out during the

last

century mainly due to

climate

change

. When we consider the solutions for

this

unfortunate development , community control comes to the top of the list .

However

, awareness programs should be started around the world on

this

matter

prior to implementing laws on birth control since it is a sensible problem. At the same time , prevention of environmental pollution would be a more practical way of dealing with

this

matter

.

For example

, one of the recent articles published on Nature has shown that , if we reduced fossil fuel use by 50% now, the rate of global warming and

climate

change

will reduce 25% in the

next

5years . in conclusion , freshwater

sources

are on the edge of the cliff due to high demand ,which is probably caused by the rising population and

climate

change

. we can reverse

this

situation by controlling the world population and preventing environmental pollution.

Hence

,

this

writer wishes to suggest , that the relevant authorities should plan a sustainable solution to deal with

this

matter

.
