Climate change and global warming threaten our water resources. According to the latest report from the World Meteorological Organization, the water cycle is going out of control.

WMO Secretary-General Celeste Saulo emphasized that the pressure on water resources is increasing and that this has an impact on livelihoods. In 2024, the world's glacial regions lost 450 gigatons of ice.

Unusual conditions have been experienced in two-thirds of the world's river basins. While some regions in the Amazon and Africa struggle with drought, others experience excessive rainfall.

In this period where water resources are at risk, 3.6 billion people experience water scarcity every month. This number is expected to exceed 5 billion by 2050.

The effects of the climate crisis are becoming more evident every day. It is emphasized that monitoring water resources and increasing data sharing is necessary.
