Abstract

The human use of and relationship with water has increased in complexity over the course of history. While early populations considered only their need for drinking, sanitation, and subsistence based agriculture, modern society has varied use considerably, expanding to commercial-scale agriculture, modern hygiene, energy production, general industry, and more. This change in use has fundamentally altered the human relationship with water, making its management far more intricate.
