To give you a perspective on water consumption, an average UAE resident uses 550 litres of water against the international average of 170-300 litres of water per day. Desalination is the major source of potable water in the UAE and Dubai alone uses 98.8 per cent of the water from desalination. Of this, only 1.2 per cent comes from ground water and a huge amount of money is spent on desalination to cater to the increasing water demand.
Beyond divine intervention, the UAE government began cloud seeding a decade ago to boost its water supplies. Contrary to what many believe, cloud seeding is not a creation of rains but man-made interference to enhance rainfall.
