Freshwater crisis |
|---|
|
Crisis of water, the freshwater crisis – how often do you hear these words in MSM - twice a week or once a month? Meanwhile the crisis of freshwater has taken a dangerous turn. Although our society accepted the existence of crisis of portable water and actively struggle against that, the problem still exists. Facts are as follows that 1, 1 billion people don?t have access to fresh water, especially a large number of people in Africa and Asia. In my opinion, our society need to pursue a water policy more active otherwise the amount of drinking water with every decade will decrease what eventually will lead to lack of water all over the world. Nowadays the problem of fresh water mostly is in undeveloped countries but there is an example that crisis of freshwater is not only in those countries. As a person from Europe, such lands as Asia and Africa for me seem to be foreign and distant. But the situation with lack of drinking clear water in Cyprus when water delivers from Greece and Turkey start to think about it differently. On other side, lack of water can lead to different conflicts as drinking water is exhaustible resource and the allocation of potable water is not uniform distribution on our planet. I hope that every of you who read this information will think about freshwater crisis more seriously and will do uttermost of your power in order to save the reserve of drinking water on Earth. Please see the picture below where is detailed information about freshwater by The Guardian. |

Thank you for your lovely comments!
I think that the first step in saving drinking water is realisation of this problem among young people as we are own the future and we have to save our planet for us and our descendants.

Whenever I see statistics on fresh water, I can help but seriously worrying about the future of entire human being :( We must do our best to conserve freshwater like banning emission of polluted water and RWH program to gather the rain drops... Thank you Tatiana!

This is such a good topic Tatiana! Water is really important in our lives and therefore we should conserve water in every drop of it. As the water is in crisis, the tariff will be increased. This is such a big and hot issue nowadays especially in hot tropical countries. Thank you so much Tatiana!

The international community can reduce the likelihood of the occurrence of a global water crisis if they responded to the challenge of a collective perspective. Is not necessary for us to invent new technologies it must be, simply, that we accelerate the adoption of techniques available in order to conserve water and increase the quantity.
