Water Crisis Facts Water scarcity is an abstract concept to many and a stark reality for others. It is
the result of myriad environmental, political, economic, and social forces.
According to the United Nations, water use has grown at more than twice the rate of population increase in the last century.

By 2025, an estimated 1.8 billion people will live in areas plagued by water scarcity, with two-thirds of the world's population living in water-stressed regions as a result of use, growth, and climate change.
According to UNICEF, poor people and people living in rural areas are far less likely to have access to improved water and sanitation facilities than their richer and their urban compatriots.
Multi-Purpose Vehicles (MPVs) Introduction
Effective emergency management and the constant delivery of basic services are
crucial for the social stability of any community. Due to ongoing budgetary limitations,
governments and corporations are focused more than ever on doing more with less resources.
The MPV is the ideal solution to cover a wide spectrum of needs, including water
purification, fire & sanitary crises and mobile medical assistance, in one, cost-effective vehicle.
From emergency situations to planned activities such as water supply and medical campaigns,
the versatility of the MPV allows for optimal asset utilization and maximized return on
investment.
