How does water scarcity (缺乏) affect people First of all, it (51) their health. It is not that they will die (52) thirst; rather, the poor quality of the water (53) for cooking and drinking may make them ill. (54) our bodies require water to treat waste products, plentiful water...
Water, energy, and food security are of critical concern as rising population growth and rapid urbanization place greater pressure on our natural resources. The trade of 'virtual water' through agricultural products and its appropriation through foreign direct investment (FDI) in food production have ...

In some parts of the world, water scarcityseverely【非常严重地;严厉地】limits food production capabilities. Coumou and Rahmstorf (2012) have also forecast that climate change will increaseprecipitation variability【降水量变率】(i.e. the frequency of rain), raising the risk of flooding and drought...
potentially sustainable methods based on seawater and solar energy will be discussed here toward increasingagriculturesurfaces and enhancingfood productionsystems in drylands that suffer from water scarcity and food insecurity issues. Some approaches could be built on theland surface, while others on the ...
For the first time in human history, human use and pollution of freshwater have reached a level where water scarcity will potentially limit food production, ecosystem function, and urban supply in the decades to come. The primary reason for this shortage is population growth, which has increased...
They will be forced to go elsewhere for water or engage in other activities, and this bears an economic cost that is not reflected in conventional water scarcity metrics. When water becomes a binding constraint, societies adapt through trade and shifting patterns of production, and the cost of ...
Critical future risks include heat stress and water stress on global food production and, thus, food security5. Climate change risks are magnified by increasing water withdrawals for household and industry to 20506, especially for irrigated agriculture that accounts for about 70% of total water ...
