This article talks about the many thing we can do to reduce water use and use it more wisely. Many policymakers control what happens to our water but implementing these solutions into how we use our water is a great way to solve the problem of water shortage. The article also talks about how due to population increase the food demand is increasing therefore farmers are going to need more irrigation water in order to meet these requirements. One solution to this so we don't waste the water used in irrigation would be conserving it. Plugging up leaks, banking water underground, and modifying crops to withstand less moisture would help use less irrigation water. We often don't reuse water we used to bathe, or take showers, or used in toilets, therefore if used advanced desalination technology these other wise known as unusable water will be drinkable. We can keep the water and reuse it constantly without introducing more water. The problem is we often take water from foreign nations that need it. Another solution would be to grow crops in arid nation eliminating the need to get more water for the crops.
After reading this article there is a lot we can do to conserve water. There are multiple methods to conserve water but the problem is that policymakers are often blind to the realities and whats really happening to protect there money. If we could put many suggested solution into action we could conserve much of our water and eliminate the need to transport water from foreign countries. We also need to educate the public about this problem to make this process go by quicker since many often believe there is not a problem with the amount of water we use. Conserving water will help us move towards only using the water we really need then countries that really need water have access to it.
