What can be done to stop global water scarcity?
The UN says in the next 10 years more and more countries will see their resources dry up.
Water scarcity is a growing problem, caused by everything from man-made climate change to poor governance.
It is affecting more people than ever before and across all continents.
In a time of technological innovation, why is something as basic as access to water still such a huge problem?
And even as aid organisations work to resolve it, has climate change progressed so far that water scarcity will inevitably affect ever more people?
