Global water use shows agriculture consuming two thirds of supplies with 4810 96 percent in developing regions. About 261 shared rivers cross borders, while international watersheds hold 60 percent of fresh water and host 40 percent of people. Half of humanity lacks sanitation. one billion lack safe drinking water, mostly in Asia. Waterborne disease causes about 5 million deaths annually. Since 1950 the per capita renewable freshwater fell 8 percent as population grew from 2.5 to 4.6 billion. Asia holds ~60 percent of people but 36 percent of renewable water. Over 20 percent of freshwater fish species are threatened or extinct. in the US, shares of threatened species are high across fish, mussels, crayfish, and amphibians. Dams and diversions fragment nearly all of the world’s major rivers.
