Water
Less than 3 per cent of the worlds water is fresh (drinkable), of which 2.5
per cent is frozen in the Antarctica, Arctic and glaciers. Humanity must
therefore rely on 0.5 per cent for all of mans ecosystems and fresh water
needs.
Man is polluting water faster than nature can recycle and purify water in
rivers and lakes.
More than 1 billion people still do not have access to fresh water.
Excessive use of water contributes to the global water stress.
Water is free from nature but the infrastructure needed to deliver it
is expensive.
