It is now declared that, Cape Town, city of South Africa is supposed to become the first major city to run out of water soon.
Water covers about 71% space on the earth, still there is a huge water shortage in world. Ocean contain 96.5% water as saline water which can’t be used by human beings without treatment, only 3.5% water is there for use which is available in the form of Ground water, Glacier, Rivers and Lakes etc. These natural resources of water are depleting very rapidly due to increase in consumption because increasing population increases wastage of water, speedy industrialization and urbanization. Some parts of India and other countries are facing acute shortage of water and unfortunately government has to arrange water by road tanker or train for those places. In India water availability per person has been reduced by 70% between the time period of 1951 to 2011 and is expected to reduce again by 22% till 2050.
