Aquifers are being depleted at a much higher rate than natural precipitation and ground water recharge is refilling them. As of February 2014, over 36 percent of the continental U. S. is experiencing moderate to severe drought conditions. A fifth of the world's people, more than 1.2 billion, live in areas of physical water scarcity.
