Climate change and city waterworks

The scarcity of water and the population increase on the planet are global problems that will become more and more pronounced in the coming decades. Water is a necessary resource for life and is often taken for granted. At the local level, the city's waterworks supply the population with clean drinking water 24/7. Their complex value chain as well as problems existing in primary activities, require efficient and effective management. With climate changes, as well as trends in the consolidation of cities, the business of city waterworks is under increasing pressure. In this paper, we will deal with some aspects of climate change that affect the city's waterworks and make their operations even more difficult.
