The main reason for this problem is the growing population in the region. This means there are more demands on the water supply. For example, more land is used to supply food and so more water is needed for irrigation. Some of this water comes from desalination plants, but some comes from underground reserves. These resources are difficult to replace, as little rain falls in this region. An additional problem is water pollution. With increased industrialisation comes the increased use of chemicals. Another reason for water shortage is that as countries become richer people use more and more in their homes. For instance, people like to bath or shower every day.
