一：In Yemen, you always see one type of vehicle (车辆) on the road: the water truck.
Private companies own the old, brightly (明亮的) colored trucks. They travel mountain roads and cross deserts to bring Yemenis a good more valuable than oil. It is one that only the rich can afford, with the supply regularly being cut off. Others must rely (依靠) on scarce (稀少的) rain or charity (慈善) to fight thirst.
Experts say Yemen is going to be the first country in the world to run out of water. The capital, Sanaa, will run out of drinking water as early as 2025, says a report by the World Bank.
Hannan, an 18-year-old from Lahej, said that only the rich could prepare for cuts in supply. “In a good week we’ll have a water supply all week but then the following week there will be water only for a day or two,” she said.
She and her husband, a factory worker, pay 3,000 riyals (99 yuan) for a week’s supply of water from a touring water truck when the taps run dry. With an income of only 20,000 riyals (660 yuan) a month, this means the family often spend half their money on water.
“There are a lot of people who can’t afford it and they have to rely on their neighbors to help,” she said.
Her neighbor, Anisa, 40, said: “When the water goes, it’s a sign of trouble in the community.”
The average person in Yemen survives on one-fifth of what the World Health Organization considers to be enough water.
Some women collect their families’ shower water and use it to wash clothes, and then recycle that same dirty water for the next load.
In Taiz, in the south, tap water is available only once every 45 days. In the mountainous Malhan district in the north, women and children climb a 1,500-m mountain to collect water from a spring, often in the small hours to avoid long queues.
Yemen is located in Southwest Asia, bordering (毗邻) the Arabian and Red seas. Yemeni people have lived on scarce water supplies for thousands of years but that problem has been made serious by conflict (冲突) in the area, the fast-growing population and the use of water to grow a drug called qat. With one of the world’s highest rates of population growth – 3.46 percent, Yemen is the poorest Arab country.
The government is considering desalinating (淡化) seawater, but this would be expensive and it may now be too late. The only other solution is to cut down on farming, but that means importing even more food.
