Quench Earth’s Thirst ‘All about pollution’ (2)

Land is the symbol and status for the nobles in manors or the king in the Middle Ages, but water has been becoming the most important symbol of wealth in the modern times.
 

Speaking economically, development is every thing when talking about water. From petrol to clothing, poultries to flour, everything is made up of, more or less, water. It takes 16 thousand litres of water to produce a kilo of beef. On average, every single one of us uses 3000 litres of water every day, about 1,095,000 litres of water every year. In a nutshell, it is even impossible to satisfy every developing or developed country’s need. The nations are thirsty, and there is declining amount of water to quench their thirst.

 
However, water is not something like climate change, because water in indigenous. Even with the help and assistance of foreign countries, the countries in need could not solve the problem. Can 10000000000 litres of water be transported to Africa?
 

The use of water certainly really does need a resolution, and even a revolution. We should decrease the use of water in agriculture for normal necessities like clothes. Cutting the amount of water used in this way could be spent on aspects in more dire need.

 
However, climate change will aggravate the rate of this happening. When the worldwide temperature increases 3 degree Celsius, uncountable number of people will be faced with a water stress.
 

Despite the plight, solutions can be found to solve the water crisis. We have to save as much water as possible. Personally, every one of us can make a target for yourself, for example, cutting on quarter amount of water you use each day for bathing, close the water tap when not using, reusing some of the water to water the plants, and so many other things. Though you may question the way to save a quarter of water used each day, right? Easy, just turn off the shower when you are pouring shampoo or lotion on your towels or when you are washing your hair, just clean it altogether when cleansing the body. And if you are one of the people who like not taking a shower but washing in a tank of water, think of the people in dire need of water in the other countries, and tell yourself to Close The Tap.
