Why might there be water scarcity in the future

I’m not sure if you are looking for an exact answer for a test, but there are many reasons for this.
As humans continue to consume (fresh) water, it starts to run out. Of course, we release this water through our bodily processes, but not all of this returns to be used again. Whenever water evaporates, it usually turns into clouds (I’m sure you already know this lol) but when it rains, not all water returns to fresh water lakes. A great amount either directly falls or trickles into the ocean, contaminating it for drinking.

Another reason could be access to water. Even if water is abundant, it can be very hard to access. Most freshwater is landlocked, either in bodies of water, like lakes, or trapped beneath the ground, called “fossil water”. Places either on the coast where they only have salt water, or very dry places, can struggle to get the water they need.

I personally don’t think we will ever have a water crisis, but there is the possibility if we don’t monitor and conserve it well.

Ps: I just realized I basically wrote an essay for this lol. Hope this helps

Because there's only a certain amount of freshwater that we can drink and in the future that certain percent is going to be lower.

<span>The Night of the Long Knives, in June 1934, saw the wiping out of the SA’s leadership and others who had angered Hitler in the recent past in Nazi Germany. After this date, the SS lead by Heinrich Himmler was to become far more powerful in Nazi Germany.</span>

<span>For all the power the Enabling Act gave Hitler, he still felt threatened by some in the Nazi Party. He was also worried that the regular army had not given an oath of allegiance. Hitler knew that the army hierarchy held him in disdain as he was ‘only ‘ a corporal in their eyes. The Night of the Long Knives not only removed the SA leaders but also got Hitler the army’s oath that he so needed</span>

5.<br> According to the text, when and why did the KKK experience surges and declines in popularity?
Readme [11.4K]

The Ku Klux Klan, founded in the late 1860’s, experiences three major surges in popularity promoting ideals such as white supremacy, white nationalism, Nativism, anti-immigration, and anti-communism.

The first era of Ku Klux Klan experienced a rise in popularity in the late 1800’s with the intent of overthrowing Republican state governments in the South and ensuring that newly-freed southern African Americans did not vote. In 1871 their membership was oppressed by federal law enforcement (1871 Ku Klux Klan Act signed by President Grant to combat the KKK and other white supremacy groups).  

The second Ku Klux Klan group flourished nationwide in the 1920’s on the platform of pro-prohibition and anti-Catholicism and anti-Jewish feelings. They experience a diminished population in the late 1920’s (around the time of the Great Depression; a time of mass American economic hardship).  

The modern-day third wave of the Ku Klux Klan came about in the late 1950’s opposing the civil rights movement. Current membership, as of 2016, amounts to an estimated 3,000-6,000 active members.
