We use water and energy a gigantic amount of times during the day: for cooking, brushing teeth, heating/cooling, television....

Energy...

Energy consumption is expected to double by 2030. There are 1,5 billion people that still lack access to electricity. Today, most energy production is based on fossil fuels-coal, oil and gas but these energies are non-renewable and pollute our environment as they produce CO2 and greenhouse gas. To reduce costs and minimise the negative impacts, countries are creating energy saving and energy efficienty policies.

Water...

Freshwater represents about 3% of the water on Earth yet this amount is unevenly distributed on Earth resulting in water shortages in some areas where the climate is hot and the population is growing.

However, there can be water issues even in wealthy countries though water related challenges mostly happen in underdeveloped countries where they don’t have money to invest in infrastructure , in countries with hot climate and in countries where the water in contaminated.

At the global level, agriculture consumes a lot of water.
