A few more suggestions...

In countries facing A scarcity of water, inhabitants must walk a long way to fetch water. BEYOND that, they pay A HIGH PRICE for water and are UNSURE OF its quality.

It is ALSO a source of conflicts, as IN the case OF the Nile, which flows across ten countries. DAMS BUILT UPSTREAM lead to less EXTENSIVE FLOODING and a meager water flow.

Their drawbacks: costly and consume tremendous amountS of energy. OR A tremendous amount of energy

Certain countries build wells which draw groundwater, thereby providing them with water. HOWEVER, IN THE LONG RUN, this bears consequences such as the exhaustion of groundwater and the disappearance of vegetation. Water is useful not only to man, but ALSO to plants and animals.

Quelle belle traduction tout de même ! Je n'ai pas pu le faire moi-même .
