We live in an era where we are grappling with over-consumption and rapid depletion of the world’s natural resources – energy and water. According to the BP Statistical Review of World Energy report1, energy consumption worldwide grew by 2.9% in 2019, the fastest this decade. The energy and water crisis faced by countries across the globe tops the list of urgent issues that we need to address. MIT in a recent study stated that water stress is one of the top 10 mega-trends that will shape the world.
As economies evolve, populations grow and incomes rise, having access to abundant energy and water is a must-have. With the ever-increasing population and growing demand, the current crisis is set to deteriorate further. Why not?
