Answer:
Water keeps on circulating in nature through various states of matter; in the form of liquid, vapor and ice. Due to this, the water which disappears because of evaporation comes back in the form of rain. Thus, water becomes a renewable resource.
The lack of enough availability of the usable fresh water is known as the water scarcity.
• The main causes of water scarcity are :
- The extensive usage and wastage of fresh water in the past. This is greatly applicable for the groundwater resources.
- Less amount of seasonal rainfall. This causes water scarcity in the rainfall dependent areas.
- Evaporation of the available water resources due to the extreme heat of summer. This causes water scarcity in the desert areas.
- Contamination of the water by different pollutants. This turns usable water into unusable water which later creates water scarcity.
And many more.
