South Africa is used as the prime example as the country is experiencing similar water challenges in terms of availability and quality as most regions across the globe. Water availability is predominantly used to illustrate water scarcity however, continued degradation of the world’s freshwater resources, by a multitude of natural and anthropogenic factors, have consequently exacerbated water stress and scarcity due to it being of insufficient quality for various uses. The increase of water scarcity through both natural and anthropogenic factors has in turn led to water being viewed as an increasing risk within all spheres. Water as a source of conflict has come to the forefront especially within regions which struggle to meet the increasing demands from different water users and trying to achieve future sustainability of the resource. The increase of water scarcity and stress as well as the continued pressure of population and economic growth has brought various new challenges into play. This book focuses on water as an increasing risk over the globe and specifically South Africa by reviewing both water availability and quality, evaluating water as a global and national risk. The book concludes by focusing on current limitations, necessary strategic actions as well as possible policy-related changes which may be required to adapt to future water challenges and to lessen water as an increasing risk.Springer Water,2364-6934Environmental sciencesWater qualityWaterPollutionEnvironmental managementEnvironmental Science and Engineeringhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G37000Water Quality/Water Pollutionhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/212000Water Policy/Water Governance/Water Managementhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/215000Environmental sciences.Water quality.WaterPollution.Environmental management.Environmental Science and Engineering.Water Quality/Water Pollution.Water Policy/Water Governance/Water Management.363.610968363.610968Du Plessis Anjaauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut0BOOK9910337894003321Water as an Inescapable Risk2205541UNINA
