It seems that there is going to be some water problem in store for many of the US states. It has been found that groundwater level is dropping in the United States and that’s what making things all the more serious in the time to come.
It was found in a research done earlier this month that there has been excess water drawn from there and that’s what must be taken into consideration. It was also told that between around 1970 and 1990, sea level which rose by groundwater pumping was negated by the construction of dams. It is also believed that water used for purposes like irrigation, drinking water and industrial uses actually doesn’t come back to the underground water table and rather, it flows into streams or rivers or evaporates into the atmosphere, thereby ending in the oceans.
“Increasing urbanization is replacing farms in the Central Valley. And during droughts some farmers are forced to fallow their land. These trends will only accelerate as water scarcity issues become more severe”, said Bridget Scanlon, senior research scientist at the University of Texas at Austin's Bureau of Economic Geology and lead author of the study, who is of the view that water scarcity can make things all the more vulnerable for Americans in the time to come.
