Brainstorming:

Causes—

The limited supply of water resources can never match the dramatically increasing demand from the booming industry and unrestrictedly flourishing population.

The lack of the sense of using water economically and reasonably, results in uncontrollable waste of the precious water, especially in the regions of relatively abundant water resources.

Solutions—

Optimizing the recycling system and operations of water can maximize the usage of limited water resources.

Popularizing the national sense of saving water and using water economically can gradually better the worsening situation in water resources.
