The report foresees a 40% decrease in the usable water amounts until 2030 and a 15% increase in global water consumption with the world population expected to reach 9 billion by 2050. The report also indicates that 2,4 billion people across the world use untreated water and 700 million people don’t have access to clean water. In the coming years, over 7% decrease is anticipated in the GDPs of countries that don’t have access to “usable water” resources.”
Turkey depleting her water resources rapidly
According to European Union Environmental Compliance Strategy Report, initial investment and renovation costs for drinking water treatment facilities and networks will be 23,6 billion TL between 2007 and 2023 and 3 times the initial investment costs will be required for renovation projects.
