Water scarcity is threatening the entire planet and all forms of life. With the escalating consequences of climate change, the percentage of drinkable water is declining dramatically. 90% of river basins in various EU countries will still be unhealthy by 2027, a report published by WWF and the Living Rivers Europe Coalition concluded.
The company is concerned with water, particularly wastewater treatment using innovative membrane technology. Water scarcity is threatening the entire planet and all forms of life. With the escalating consequences of climate change, the percentage of drinkable water is declining dramatically. 90% of river basins in various EU countries will still be unhealthy by 2027, a report published by WWF and the Living Rivers Europe Coalition concluded. The water-energy nexus is badly affected. Contaminated water and poor sanitation are linked to transmission of diseases such as cholera, diarrhoea, dysentery, hepatitis A, typhoid and polio. Absent, inadequate, or inappropriately managed water and sanitation services expose individuals to preventable health risks. In Africa, as of October 2022, about 226 million people in Eastern and Southern Africa did not have access to basic water services, and 381 million people lacked access to basic sanitation services. The situation is worse in rural areas than in cities. And nine countries (Angola, Democratic Republic of Congo, Ethiopia, Kenya, Madagascar, Mozambique, Sudan, Tanzania, and Uganda) are home to 80% of underserved people in the region. The need for innovative and efficient water production, storage, and delivery is stronger than ever.
