Sustainable water: World or water crisis?

  • Cai, X.
  • Cline, S. A.
  • Rosegrant, M.
  • Summary
Two alternatives to the business-as-usual scenario exist - the water crisis scenario (CRI), projecting a worsening of the current situation for water and food policy; and the sustainable water use scenario (SUS), projecting a more positive future with greater environmental water reservation, greater domestic consumption from full water connection of urban and rural households and the maintenance of BAU levels of good production.

This chapter presents results for these scenarios and compares them with BAU.
