ABSTRACT
This article explores the potential of social media as a tool for water management. With the increasing challenges of climate change, droughts, and social inequities, the need for efficient water management is critical. However, social media is underutilized in this regard. The paper discusses the opportunities for social media to collect and disseminate information about water concerns and examines a data set of water utility tweets using AI and Machine Learning tools. The study concludes that social media is crucial for addressing global issues, and AI analytics can guide the effective use of social media for positive change.
