PAKISTAN WASTES 35 MILLION ACRE-FEET OF RAINWATER ANNUALLY
Pakistan loses nearly 35 million acre-feet of rainwater annually due to floods and a lack of storage infrastructure. This wasted water is equal to the total capacity of the country's biggest dams.
Despite increasing rainfall, most of the water mixes with sewage instead of being stored for future use. Experts stress the need for recharge wells and storage ponds in cities like Karachi, Lahore, and Islamabad to conserve water.
With rising urban demand, integrating rainwater collection systems in new housing projects could help reduce reliance on groundwater and ease the water crisis.
