Published on by Claudia Casarotto, Innovations for Poverty Action - Deputy Country Director - Kenya in Social
With the growing world population, particularly in urban areas, the water, energy, and food resources will be facing growing challenges. By 2030, water supply could face a 40% shortfall, with the world's food needs growing by as much as 50%. By 2050, energy demand will be three times greater than it was a mere decade ago. Urban development, infrastructure quality, investments in water and energy, demand and supply management solutions could all have an impact on water resources, food and energy production.
