ANSWER::
"The problem of water scarcity is related to the social, economic and ecological aspects".
Water crisis or scarcity is a situation where the available potable water in a particular region is less and not meeting the demands of that region.
1. It has affected almost every nation and the need of the hour is that in a society people try to understand the problem of water scarcity and accomplish methods for it.
2. The economic aspect of water scarcity is that the water is not managed properly even though having sufficient available water resources.
3. Another economic aspect is that at some places there is enough water to meet their daily needs or even more than that but , they are lacking the means to provide it in an accessible manner.
4. From the ecological aspect some places lack water resources and so , in that region there is water scarcity.
5. More ecological aspect is the climate change , high levels of pollution of water , altered weather ( includes droughts or floods) , over usage of water which leads in further depletion of water resources.
6. Causes of water scarcity => Water pollution , Over population , Agriculture
7. Effects of Water Scarcity => Hunger , Poor Health , Poverty (can't afford water to drink) , Habitat Loss and Destruction to Ecosystems , Disappearance of Wetlands
