Groundwater aquifer freshwater COP27 scarcity
Date
12 October 22
Country
MENA Region
Summary
With access to freshwater growing scarcer around the world due to climate change and mismanagement, reliance on groundwater sources is becoming more acute in many countries. In places where groundwater is heavily used, such as across much of the MENA region, available volumes are tapering off mainly due to years of over-extraction to meet ever-growing demand.
