Phatlalatso ya Metsi le kgopo leswe kwa Namibia
Namibia ke naga e e omeletseng e gantsi e tlhaselwang ke komelelo. Dinoka tse dikgolo di elela fela go bapa le melelwane ya yone e e kwa bokone le e e kwa borwa, mme di kgakala le mafelo a batho ba nnang mo go one.

Mo Afrika, tlelaemete ya teng ke ya bobedi ka go omelela fela morago ga Sahara. Namibia e na le dinoka di le mmalwa tse dikgolo, jaaka Orange River kwa Borwa, e e abelanwang le Afrika Borwa, mmogo le dinoka tsa Zambezi le Okavango kwa Bokone, e e kopanetsweng le Angola, Zambia le Botswana. Le fa go ntse jalo, dinoka tseno di kgakala le mafelo a batho ba nnang mo go one mme ditshenyegelo tsa go di dirisa go bona metsi a a nowang di kwa godimo thata. Ke Noka ya Cunene fela, e e kopanetsweng le Angola, e e tlamelang ka metsi a a nowang mo dikgaolong tse nne tsa Bokone jwa Namibia. Palogare ya palogare ya "tlhabololo e e babalesegileng" ya metswedi ya metsi a Namibia e fopholediwa go nna 660 million m3/year, e anamisiwa ka tsela e e latelang: metsi a a kafa tlase ga lefatshe 300 million m3/ year, dinoka tsa nakwana 200 million m3/ Year, dinoka tse di nnang di le 150 million m3/ngwaga le metswedi e e sa tlwaelegang jaaka metsi a a se nang le letswai a a phepafaditsweng 10 million m3/annu.[1]
Metsi a a kafa tlase ga lefatshe

Mêtsi a a kwa tlase mo mafelông ano a kwa tlase e bile ga a ikanyêge, mêtsi a a kafa tlase ga lefatshe a botêng thata mme ka dinako tse dingwê ke a boleng jo bo kwa tlase.

Bontlhanngwe jwa tsônê di sa ntse di dira.[2] Ka ngwaga wa 2012 baithutamarope ba metsi ba ne ba ribolola sediba se segolo sa metsi kwa Bokône jwa Namibia se se neng se ka tlamela lefelo leo, kwa 40% ya baagi ba naga ba nnang teng, ka dingwaga di le 400.

Aquifer e botêng jwa dimetara di ka nna 300 mme e ka fa tlase ga kgatelelo, gore mêtsi a yone a ka pompiwa ka tlhotlhwa e e kwa tlase. Le fa go ntse jalo, letswai lê le nang le mêtsi a a letswai le nna mo godimo ga letswai le la mêtsi a a phêpa, ka jalo go epa go tshwanêtse ga dirwa ka kêlotlhôkô go tila letswai le tsênêlêla.

Mo mafelong mangwe, metsi a a kafa tlase ga lefatshe a letswai go sekae (a letswai). Mo Kgaolong ya Omusati kwa Bokone jwa Namibia, go ne ga tsenngwa didirisiwa di le nne tse dinnye tsa go ntsha letswai ka 2010 e le karolo ya porojeke ya dipatlisiso ya Jeremane le Namibia ya CuveWaters.

Metsi a a kwa godimo
fetolaBontsi jwa dinoka tsa nakwana (tse di elelang ka dipaka) tsa kwa teng ga Namibia di na le letamo mme, go ya ka FAO, di na le poelo e e tlhomamisitsweng ya 95% ya dimetara di le dimilione di le 96 ka ngwaga, go ya hi tshedimosetso ya dipula tsa hisitori.

Ka jalo, ke halofo fela ya metsi a a tswang mo dinokeng tsa nakwana a a ka dirisiwang. Go na le metsi a a setseng mo matamong mangwe, sekai mo Letamong la Oanob, Letamo la Hardap, Letamo le Letamo la Naute le Letamo le Friedenau.[6] Metsi a a setseng a ka se dirisiwe ka ntlha ya lefelo le le kgakala la matamo ano le tlhokego e e lekanyeditsweng ya lefelo leo.
Metsi a dinoka tse di nnang di elela ka metlha tse di dirisiwang kwa Namibia a tsamaisana le karolo e nnye ya Namibia mo dinokeng tsa mo melelwaneng. Dipalopalo tsa mmatota go tloga ka 1999 (data ya bosheng e e leng teng) e ne e le 23 million m3 go tswa kwa Nokeng ya Cunene kwa Ruacana, 49 million m3 ku tswa kwa Nokeni ya Orange kwa Noordoewer, 22 million m3 Go tswa kwa Nokopong ya Okavango (e e e e elelang go ralala Namibia kwa Caprivi Strip) kwa Rundu, le 7 million m3 kwa Nokeng e e tswang kwa Nokeng wa Zambezi. Namibia e na le ditumalano tse di leng teng le Angola le Afrika Borwa ka ga go abelana dinoka tsa Cunene le Orange ka go latelana. Metsi a a abelwang go tswa kwa Nokeng ya Cunene ke 180 million m3 mme go ya pele a feta a a ntshitsweng.[1][7]
Go phuthiwa ga metsi a pula le merwalela

Mo setlhoeng sa paka ya dipula metsi a a mo megobeng eno a phepa e bile a boleng jo bo siameng. Mo porojekeng ya go lekeletsa jaaka karolo ya lenaneo la dipatlisiso la CuveWaters, mo motsaneng o o kwa kgakala wa Lipopo mo kgaolong ya Oshana Borwa metsi a a tswang kwa Oshana a pompilwe go ya kwa tankeng ya polokelo go dirisiwa go nosetsa merogo ka paka ya komelelo go dirisiwa tsamaiso ya go nosetsa. Mo godimo ga moo, metsi a pula a phuthiwa go tswa kwa godimo ga marulelo a ntlo ya go thuthafatsa le go tswa kwa marulelong a a apesitseng megobe ya polokelo.[8] Mo motsaneng o mongwe, Epyeshona gaufi le Oshakati, metsi a pula ke one fela a a kgobokanngwang, ka bongwe ka bongwe go tswa mo marulelong a matlo, le ka kakaretso go tswa mo lefelong la konkereite mo mmung le le agilweng segolobogolo go phutha metsi a pula.

Go dirisiwa ga metsi le tsela ya go tsena
fetolaPalogotlhe ya tiriso ya metsi kwa Namibia e ne e fopholediwa go nna dimetara di le dimilione di le 300 ka ngwaga wa 2000. Lefapha la mmasepala go akaretsa bojanala le intaseteri le dirisitse 73 million m3 (24 percent), fa bontsi jwa metsi a dirisediwa temothuo le diruiwa. Go ne go dirisiwa fela di-m3 di le dimilione di le 13 (4 peresente) mo meepong ka nako eo, le fa palo eno e oketsegile ka ntlha ya tlhabololo ya meepo segolobogolo meepo ya uranium morago ga ngwaga wa 2000.[10] Go epa kwa Namibia go dirisa metsi thata, a a dirisediwang ditiro tse di farologaneng go akaretsa go dira diminerale, mme gape le go laola lerole, go tsamaisa matlakala le go dirisa metsi a badiri. Meepo ya uranium e dirisa metsi a mantsi go a dira ka go dirisa alkali leaching. Ka sekai, moepo wa Trekkopje mo sekakeng sa Namib o dirisa 14 million m3/year ya metsi a boleng jo bo kwa godimo a a tshwanetseng go se na letswai lepe. Metsi a a letswai a a ntshiwang ka didiba tsa selegae a dirisediwa go thibela lerole, ka go dira jalo go fokotsa tlhokego ya metsi a a phepa. Mo godimo ga moo, metsi mangwe a a leswe a a phepafadiwa le go dirisiwa gape, ka go dira jalo go fokotsa tlhokego ya metsi. Tlhokego ya metsi a a phepa e fitlhelelwa go tswa kwa Erongo Desalination Plant e gape e tlamelang baagi ba ba bapileng. E re ka nako ya go tshela ga sejalo (dingwaga di le 30) e le telele go feta nako e e lebeletsweng ya go tshela ya moepo (dingwaga tse 12), e ne e setse e le fa sejalo se ne se rulagantswe go ne go solofetswe gore se tla tsewa ke NamWater fa moepo o tswalwa.[11]
Metsi le tiriso ya metsi kwa Windhoek
fetolaWindhoek is provided with water from three different sources. As of 2006 17 Mio m³ of the water demand was covered by dams around Windhoek, such as the Von Bach Dam, 5.4 Mio m³ from the Goreangab Reclamation Plant and only between 1 and 2 Mio m³ still come from boreholes. The city estimates per capita water consumption at 200 liter per capita per day including industries, businesses and tourism, which is slightly higher than in Europe. An analysis of residential water consumption alone estimated it at 163 liter per capita per day in 2010, with significant differences between neighborhoods. For example, it was 306 liter in high-income neighborhoods in the South-East, while it was only 27 liters in informal settlements in the North.[12] During the severe drought of 2015/16, water users in central Namibia were required to cut usage by up to 30 percent. In April 2016, the city of Windhoek launched a Zero Tolerance to Water Wastage policy, under which it would disconnect or fine on anyone using potable supply to water gardens or wash cars. The Swakoppoort Dam, Von Bach Dam and Omatako Dam, which supply the region, were only filled at 11 percent of their capacity. In May, the Coca-Cola Namibia Bottling Company stopped production due to the severe water shortages.[13]
