What is renewable water?
• Water that, after exploitation, can return to their previous stock levels by natural process of growth or replenishment. They are rechargeable due to the hydrologic cycle unless they are overexploited. Often comprising groundwater aquifers and surface water like rivers and lakes. Between 2000 2025 the global average annual per capita of renewable water resources is projected to fall from 6,600 cubic metres to 4,800 cubic metres, hence innovations and concepts that contribute to sustainable water management and use are an imperative for present and future generations.
