Question

What are the reasons for lowering Groundwater in large cities?

Answer 1

1. In large cities, trees have been felled to make room for buildings and roads causing less rainfall in large cities.
2. In large cities, rainwater is diverted by drains into lakes and reservoirs, rather than into the Groundwater.
3. The large population in big cities uses groundwater and other water resources faster than they can be replenished.
