Answer:

increase water consumption .

Step-by-step explanation:

Rising temperatures increase water consumption by people, animals, and plants as warmer air increases the rate of evaporation of moisture from soil and plants as well as sweat from skin. As the demand for water increases, intersectoral and intercountry competition for water is likely to intensify.
