Beginning:

Introduction to the issue: The world is facing a growing water crisis,


which is a major concern for global health, food production, and
economic stability. Water scarcity is becoming more prevalent due to
population growth, climate change, and poor water management.
Importance of the issue: Water is essential for life, and without
access to clean water, people face significant challenges, including
health risks, lack of sanitation, and limited agricultural productivity.
Middle:
• Causes of the water crisis:
• Climate change: Changing weather patterns cause droughts in some regions and floods in
others, disrupting the water cycle.
• Overuse of water resources: Agriculture, industry, and urbanization consume large
amounts of water, leading to depletion of freshwater resources.
• Pollution: Contamination of freshwater sources by industrial waste, agricultural runoff, and
untreated sewage reduces the availability of clean water.
• Population growth: Increased demand for water due to a growing global population puts
more strain on existing water sources.
• Impact of water scarcity:
• Health consequences: Lack of access to clean water leads to the spread of diseases such as
cholera, dysentery, and malaria.
• Economic impact: Water scarcity affects agriculture, leading to food shortages, and
hampers industrial production, causing economic downturns.
• Social and political issues: Conflicts can arise over access to water resources, particularly in
regions where water is already scarce.
