In many countries around the world, water scarcity could become a macroeconomically relevant concern. as a key input into production processes (agriculture, power generation and industrial use) and a common good, water resources risk being overexploited.
Two Thirds Of The World Faces Severe Water Shortages The New York Times Countries need a new international pact to fix a mounting water crisis that could cut economic growth by at least 8% and put half the world's food supplies at risk by 2050, an oecd backed. In a landmark report, the economics of water: valuing the hydrological cycle as a global common good, the global commission on the economics of water said the water crisis puts at risk. By 2050, the water crisis could threaten more than 50% of global food production and shrink countries’ gdps by an average of 8%. speaking simplistically, we break down the nuanced system by which water moves constantly around between land, atmosphere, and oceans. High water stress in arid, drought stricken countries across africa and the middle east is set to cause an economic decline of 25% over the next 20 30 years, noted quentin grafton, the unesco.

Demand for freshwater will outstrip supply by about 40% which could lead to a global water crisis if no imminent action is taken, a landmark report on the economics of water has found. An international group of leaders and experts warns that unless humanity acts with greater boldness and urgency, an increasingly out of balance water cycle will wreak havoc on economies and humanity worldwide. In a new report published by the global commission on the economics of water (gcew), launched on oct 17, leading independent experts from science, economics and policy making said.
