A staff have left a water tap open for a few seconds to be photographed. The tap, built on the yard of a school in Jakarta, is placed above a drainage equipped with plugholes to make sure the waste water will be absorbed by the ground. According to UN Water in their Summary Progress Update 2021 published on March 1, 2021 in Geneva, since 2015, water-use efficiency has increased by 4% globally. "With 17 percent of available water resources being withdrawn, the world as a whole is not considered water-stressed. However, this number hides stark regional differences: in some regions the level of water stress has increased by 35 percent during the last two decades, and many countries withdraw all their renewable water resources or even rely on non renewable resources that will eventually run dry, " the report says.
