खालीलपैकी कोणते/कोणता घटक प्रामुख्याने दुष्काळ सदृश्य प्रदेशात पिण्याच्या पाण्यावर अत्यंत केंद्रित ताण पडण्यास कारणीभूत झाला/झाले आहेत ? / Which of the following factor is/are responsible for highly localised pressure on freshwater resources especially in drought prone areas ?
In drought-prone areas, over-extraction of groundwater for irrigation and domestic use causes highly localized pressure on freshwater resources. This depletes the water table rapidly.
2030 पर्यंत खालील घटक 40% पाण्याचा तुटवडा निर्माण होण्यास कारणीभूत होणार आहेत : (a) अन्न उत्पादनासाठी ताण (b) शहरीकरण (c) जलहतूकची प्रगती (d) लोकसंख्या वाढ वरीलपैकी कोणता/ते घटक तुटवडा निर्माण होण्यास कारणीभूत होणार आहेत ? The following are some of the factors responsible for 40% shortfall of water by 2030 : (a) Pressure of food production (b) Urbanisation (c) Development of water transport (d) Population growth Which of the above factor/s is/are responsible for this shortfall ?
(a)अन्न उत्पादनासाठी ताण / Pressure of food production
(b)शहरीकरण / Urbanisation
(c)जलहतूकची प्रगती / Development of water transport
(d)लोकसंख्या वाढ / Population growth
Global reports on water stress project a 40% shortfall by 2030 driven primarily by population growth, rapid urbanization, and increased pressures of food production.
