Figure 6

Volume of water demand for urban areas, total and Dhaka only, under a range of scenarios (left hand plot). The black lines are the base case (business as usual). The scenarios (dotted, colour lines) are labelled in the case of the total urban demand; the Dhaka scenarios have the same line colour and format, and occur in the same position relative to the base case. The volume of water demand in the base case for urban (total and Dhaka only) is compared with the base case Bangladesh total irrigation demand (right hand plot). For irrigation, the projected actual demand is shown as the thin grey line, with the fitted polynomial shown as the black curve.
