Why is this rice so expensive?
1674L Water
was used to produce 1kg of rice
Rice is a food staple for more than 3.5 billion people around the world, particularly in Asia, Latin America, and parts of Africa. Much of it is farmed in low-lying flat lands, like the Mekong Delta in Vietnam. Rice farming is very water intensive, using 40% of all irrigation water in the world. Rice is both a victim of and a contributor to climate change as rising temperatures, frequent droughts, floods, and typhoons are devastating rice farms. Rice contributes to methane emissions, but far less than animal farming. Know your rice, value water!
Let's get real
Thanks for checking out The Drop Store. As you might know by now, this product at this price doesn’t exist. Yet. Water challenges concern everybody. Some of us already deal with these challenges every day, while others don't see them yet. If we don't act now, they’ll get worse for everyone. Find out more about what’s happening below, and see how you can get involved in building a better future.
Too much water
Since 2000, flood-related disasters have surged by 134%, inflicting severe social and economic consequences. Floods result in immediate loss of life, property, crops, and livestock. They also lead to health problems like waterborne diseases and malnutrition. Recovery from floods takes months or even years. Additionally, floods harm food production by reducing crop yield, causing soil erosion, and damaging farming infrastructure. They spread pollutants and pose risks to affected communities. Explore our partner organizations for ways to take action.
What can we do about it?
While it's impossible to completely prevent floods, there are several things we can do to mitigate their impact. Our partners strengthen the networks of people, institutions, hardware, investment, and resources that deliver clean water to our taps. They also try to educate as many people on this issue as they can. By sharing this story, you can help tremendously.
