TASK 2: (6 pts)

Water Scarcity in Morocco: causes, consequences, and solutions

Water scarcity is a big problem in Morocco. It is happening because of the
lack of rainfall. Furthermore, people use too much water for farming and other
industrial activities. Moreover, water pollution also makes water dirty and unusable.
The lack of water has serious effects. It makes it hard for farmers to grow
food, and this can cause food shortages and higher prices. In addition, people in some
areas do not have enough clean water to drink, and this causes health problems.
Besides, animals and plants also suffer because they need water to live.
To solve this problem, we need to act. First, we need to use water more
wisely. Second, people should use less water in their daily activities. Third, we need to
collect and filter rain water and flood water so it can be used again. Fourth, we can
also build more dams and reservoirs to store water. Fifth, we should sensitize people
about the importance of water.
All in all, if we work together, we can combat water shortages in Morocco
and make sure everyone has enough clean water to drink and use.
