Global tensions rise as rivers dry, glaciers melt, and nations battle for water security.

Shrinking Rivers

Once-mighty rivers like the Nile, Colorado, and Yangtze are losing flow at alarming rates due to overuse and climate change. Local economies, ecosystems, and millions of people are at risk.

Glacier Meltdown

The Himalayas and Arctic glaciers, vital sources of freshwater, are melting faster than predicted. This threatens billions in Asia and raises sea levels globally.

Africa’s Water Crisis

Drought-hit regions in Africa see millions walk miles daily for water. Scarcity is worsening malnutrition, disease, and migration pressures.
