Africa, A Continent With Ignored Large Water Reserves



Authors : Remini Boualem .

Abstract

This article examines the water resources in the African continent. On the basis of a bibliography, we have established a report on the potential for surface and underground water. It turns out that the Africa continent, with an area of over 30 million km2, holds more than 10 longest rivers on the planet. A number of dams of more than 2000. But what impressed us most is the potential of invisible waters which are hidden in the subsoil of the continent. 72 in number, Trans boundary aquifers, hold more than 42% of the continent's total area. It is this type of water resource that can save the continent in the short to medium term in the event of global warming. Africa is a continent full of water.
