Presentation transcript:

Italy is the fourth nation in the world for consumption of water: twice the global average. Each Italian consumes 2332 cubic meters of water per year, almost the content of an Olympic size swimming pool…

Globally, one billion and 400 million people on the planet have no access to drinking water. The great risk is that in 2025, when the population will exceed 8 billions people, the number of people without access to drinking water increases to over 3 billions.

F resh water in the subsoil is considerably reducing, and to meet the demand for drinking water, we need to dig deeper and deeper wells: practically we are consuming more water than available!

Water is a heritage of humanity. Individual and collective health, agriculture, industry and domestic life are deeply linked to it.
