The presented charts delineate both the global distribution of water resources and the various utilization patterns of water across Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and Canada.
Notably, the pie charts reveal that salt water constitutes a predominant portion of Earth’s water supply, while the bar graph illustrates significant disparities in water use across the three nations, particularly highlighting the prioritization of agriculture in Egypt and industry in Canada.
Examining the pie charts, it is evident that salt water comprises a staggering 97% of the world’s total water resources, in stark contrast to fresh water, which accounts for a mere 3%. Within the category of fresh water, ice and glaciers dominate, representing 79% of this limited resource, significantly overshadowing groundwater, which constitutes only 20%. Surface water is notably minimal, contributing a mere 1% to the fresh water available on Earth.
Turning to the bar graph, water consumption patterns reveal distinctive trends among the three countries studied. Egypt allocates an overwhelming 80% of its water resources to agricultural purposes, the highest proportion among the nations reviewed. Conversely, Saudi Arabia utilizes 70% of its water for domestic consumption, emphasizing the acute water scarcity challenges it faces. In contrast, Canada demonstrates an industrial-centric approach, with 80% of its water usage directed towards industry. Notably, both Egypt and Saudi Arabia allocate only about 10% of their water resources for industrial uses, indicating a marked difference in priorities and available resources, while domestic consumption remains consistently low across all three countries.
