Isi artikel
For Millions Suffering the misery of the past two years' floods it must seem the cruelest of jokes, but Pakistan is one of the world's most arid countries. Average annual rainfall is less than 240mm, and the total availability of water per person has fallen from about 5,000 cubic meters in the 1950s to about 1,100 now, just above the 1,000 cubic-meter-per-head definition of "water-scarce". A shortage of water is a more serious peril than any of the others mentioned in this report. Combined with continued fast growth in its population, it is the true existential threat to Pakistan.
