The WaterFlow Foundation programme is aimed at achieving two vital objectives: raising awareness about water conservation among people and communities across Malta, and giving said people opportunities to improve their own water conservation techniques and get involved in several water conservation taking place around Malta over the course of the year.
“Only one-third of the water that
annually runs to the sea is accessible to humans. Of this, more than half is
already being appropriated and used. This proportion might not seem so much,
but demand will double in thirty years. And much of what is available is
degraded by eroded silt, sewage, industrial pollution, chemicals, excess
nutrients, and plagues of algae. Per capita availability of good, potable water
is diminishing in all developed and developing countries.”
