WMO warns of freshwater decline
The World Meteorological Organization has warned of a global decline in freshwater resources. It revealed that 2025 was one of the driest years in the past 35 years, with river flows 36% below the average across watershed areas. Reports showed that water reserves, including groundwater and glaciers, have been decreasing since around 2014 and 2016, with ice loss continuing for the fourth consecutive year, impacting communities that rely on water during hot, dry summer seasons. The organization emphasized the need for governments to prepare for climate change and its effects on water resources, indicating that the current situation calls for changes in global water management practices.
