The country is below the water scarcity threshold and not on track to meet the Millennium Development Goal target related to this aspect, and especially its rural communities are suffering this. Climate change is increasing the problems by raising global temperatures and causing droughts, which in agriculture-dependent countries like Kenya where the weather is already warm and the incomes are low they have a bigger impact. In addition, the country high population growth rate since 2010 is putting even more pressure on water and energy sources.
