Is India heading towards serious water crisis with the changes in atmosphere?

Question

As quoted by Mr.Arunabha Ghosh, co-author of the "Human Development Report" of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP).

Answer 1

Yes!
India is, most certainly heading towards very serious water crisis in near future.

That is not as much because of the environmental changes as due to the fact that there is unbridled population growth and total lack of water management.

As far as water is concerned the country suffered from the 'embarrassment of riches' to some extent. Therefore totally lacked 'water sense' .

It will have to pay dearly for its folly now.

Answer 2

The world is.

66% of the world is under salt water.

Approximately rest is continuous land mass broken in few spots by rivers and lakes some of it also salt water and most non usable water, this is the additional maximum 4% by some estimates. Of this only 10% maximum is consumable water by humans(suitable for drinking after filtration).

But this is the only water that we are presently consuming for every thing and not for drinking only.

Answer 3

tes, due to quick weather changes, water crisis has started.
for example, this year, there was draught in Cherapunji
(the place with highest rainfall).
take case of Delhi. there is acute water shortage in South Delhi.
although India is surrounded with oceans, but it is of no use as ocean water is salty.

Answer 4

I think lots of India is near sea level so if the oceans rise then yes they are screwed. Their population needs restructuring so it might help them in the long run.

Answer 5

It is because your muslim families have 10 -20 kids. They are consuming all the water.

Tell them to stop fuking like animals and then there will hopefully be the right number of people commensurate with the resources in India.
