Lack of Fresh Water will Jeopardize Sustainable
Development
G.O.P. Obasi
Freshwater resources now have fallen below the 1000 m3 annual per
capita level - a common benchmark for water scarcity - in 22 countries.
Freshwater shortage and water quality will be dominant problems in the next
century and may jeopardize all other efforts to secure sustainable
development.
