Water problem in Yemen

Water problem in Yemen

Water is the most precious resource and the source of life on our planet, the earth. Without it all living organisms will die out. The problem of drinkable water shortage is very common in a lot of countries all over the world. There are a lot of reasons that cause water shortage such as rarity of rainfall, bad management of available water resources or fights over the existing sources of water. One more cause of water shortage is the increase of world population and the stability of water supply sources. One of the countries that are suffering from the problem of water shortage is Yemen. In the past, the problem in that they mainly depend on wells water and ground water. The causes of the water problem in Yemen are many. But I choose the most two important problems. Firstly, Yemen does not have rivers and depends mainly on underground water and the little rainfall. Secondly, the increase in population puts more demand on water and consequently consumption goes up every year Yemenis like to have many children at their homes and forget the problems that  might face them in the future. For example, the population of Yemen doubled over the past twenty years; Yemen has one of the highest rates of population increase worldwide. I think the government must get a quick solution for the water shortage in the country because the population is increasing every day. I think the best solution is to recycle the waste water and use it for washing and other uses. Finally, water shortage is a worldwide problem that a lot of countries around the world suffer from. The government must provide the poor people with water.
