In Morocco, a sixth year of drought is threatening the country's water supply. Almost 90% of the land in the country is not being used for agriculture.
The country needs more than 16 billion m3 of water per year to meet its needs. The current drought is expected to last until the end of the year, according to the World Bank. The World Bank says the current drought poses a serious threat to the health of the nation's population. The UN has called on the government to take action to protect the water supplies.
