Water Use In Vanuatu
1. I was not surprised that water was being taken from streams, but what I was surprised about was the amount of water being taken. I really thought that the water would be taken by huge drink companies such as Coca-Cola - certainly not Nestle. This makes me somewhat upset because they are just taking water from wherever they can to make a profit. If this keeps up for a long time, water may become scarce in some areas.
2. In Vanuatu cyclones hit frequently and can limit the peoples drinking water. In April there was one that hit and caused nearly half of of the people to lose access to clean water.
Groundwater drilling machinery is responsible for ensuring that rural communities have access to a fresh and clean water supply and that water resources, in these rural communities, are properly utilized to promote rural economic development. If these break down it could leave the people waterless for a while. Water pollution is also an issue in many urban areas due to poor sanitation systems.
