Global water supply is currently a troubling issue. The world's population size is steadily increasing, without the increase in water supply, leaving many to fear an impending shortage.

Freshwater is not evenly distributed across the globe and desalination of water is one solution put forth, but it also comes with its own challenges such as: being very expensive, requiring large amounts of energy, harsh impact on marine life, water being a commodity controlled by large corporations, and emissions having a harsh effect on environments.

What is the folk culture of Bhutan
Katen [24]

<u>Answer</u>:

<em>Bhutan's way of life is firmly founded on its Tibetan type of Mahayana Buddhism, which contains a sprinkling of Tibet's antiquated Bon shamanist religion. </em>

<u>Explanation</u>:

Supported in the folds of the Himalayas, <em>Bhutan has depended on its geographic segregation to shield itself from outside social impacts. Culture Heritage is significant in our everyday life. </em>

As a little nation, safeguarding an interesting society and convention gives solid hardware to autonomy. <em>Therefore, all residents ought to know that social legacy gives a free and the sovereign Kingdom of Bhutan</em>

A scantily populated nation circumscribed by India to the south, and China toward the north,<em> Bhutan has since a long time ago kept up an arrangement of exacting nonintervention, both socially and financially, with the objective of saving its social legacy and autonomy. </em>

Just in the most recent many years of the twentieth century were outsiders permitted to visit the nation, and at exactly that point in restricted numbers.
