March 22nd is World Water Day[1], a day dedicated to raising awareness about the global water crisis and promoting action to conserve water. Water scarcity is a critical issue that can cause conflicts and disrupt peace. For example, a single semiconductor manufacturing plant, also known as a "Fab," can consume 25.7 million gallons of water per day, which is equivalent to the water usage of...
