In this paper, two models are built to make a forecast of water demand and supply of China in 2025. These two forecasting models for water demand and supply based on the algorithm of Double Exponential Smoothing. Based on the results of these models, the water amount of the nation and every province is obvious and two advices are proposed for China government makes any
